"Leading Air and Heat are the best! I called when my 14 year old A/C died. The owner Mike came right away and gave me a very fair quote. But what sold me was his friendliness and professionalism. He took the time to explain clearly what would be done. I had gotten 2 other quotes (one close in cost), but felt most at ease with choosing Leading Air. Reese and Troy came the very next day for the install, and Mike was there before the end of the job to oversee and show me what had been done. I feel so good about the choice I made and would definitely encourage anyone who needs any help to reach out to them. I am so glad I did!"

"Super professional, and didnâ t immediately try and pressure me into buying a new AC system like the other guys, and actually took the time to inspect my hvac system and find problems that others missed. We had them do insulation work as well, and they were super quick and accommodating, even in the hot summer months! Office staff was amazing on the phone, and they were able to make our schedule work to the hour that we requested. Finally, a company to trust!"

"The project went extremely well and I am very satisfied! They arrived at a convenient time in the morning and finished faster than I expected the same day for such a big project. But ALL details were completed above and beyond simply installing the unit with top quality and professionalism provided by Ted, Mike and Anthony and left me very happy with the results! I would recommend their services to anyone looking for the 'best' service and quality in air conditioning and heat installation."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Merritt Island, FL

Converting from an oil furnace to an electric furnace isn't a simple swap—the oil system needs to be completely removed before installing the electric furnace. You'll need a full electric system installation, but you might be able to reuse existing ductwork if it's up to current safety standards. You’ll need to budget for a new electric furnace installation, which costs between $1,800 and $6,200, including professional removal, proper disposal, and safe installation of the new system.

Electric furnaces are 100% efficient at converting electricity into heat. However, some of that heat can be lost as it travels through your home's ductwork or escapes through poorly insulated areas. That's why regular duct maintenance and proper home insulation are important to maximize your furnace's efficiency and reduce heat loss, ensuring consistent warmth and lower energy costs.

With proper maintenance, an electric furnace can last anywhere from 20 to 30 years, outlasting the average gas furnace's lifespan of 15 to 20 years. To keep your electric furnace running efficiently, schedule regular cleanings, tighten connections, and have inspections done before winter arrives. With routine maintenance, you’ll ensure consistent, safe heating for years to come.

The size of the electric furnace you need depends on factors like your home's square footage, climate, and insulation quality. As a general guideline, those who live in warmer climates should multiply their square footage by 30 to 35 BTUs, while those in cooler areas should multiply it by 50 to 60 BTUs.

Consulting with an HVAC professional can help you determine the exact size that's right for your home.

An electric furnace works by converting electricity into heat using high-resistance heating elements. A blower then pushes the warm air through your home's ductwork, distributing heat evenly throughout your space. Since there's no combustion involved, electric furnaces eliminate the risks associated with gas furnaces and provide consistent, reliable heating when properly installed.

An electric furnace uses between 40 and 80 kilowatts per day to heat your home. The exact amount it uses depends on factors like your home's size, insulation, and overall energy requirements. Larger homes or those with poor insulation use more energy than smaller, well-insulated spaces. A professional furnace assessment can help confirm the ideal unit size for your needs.
