"From the initial preparation to the final turning on of the new system all went smoothly and according to plan. All work was very professional, and we were consulted every step of the way. All of our duct work needed replacing. The old system was never properly done nor sized to our home. We are happy!"

"Mike Hall dis a great job with my semi annual furnace/ac cleaning. He checked both inside and outside to make sure the systems and drains were in working order. He placed the order for the UV Blub and I got the call for serving appointment before he was out of the driveway. Thanks Swift. Mike is a good representative of your company."

"This is the best HVAC Company I have ever dealt with. I was looking to replace my old tired HVAC system with a newer more efficient system. I called the office and told them i was looking to replace my system. Sal came to my residence the same day I called and before he left he told me exactly what the job was going to cost, but then I hit him with the rest of the project. I wanted a Bosch system with a full duct replacement with all hard ductwork no flex duct, and the work to include removal of the entire old system including flex duct, then moving the interior unit to a more central area in my attic and raising all the hard ducts as high as possible giving me so much more room and easier passage through out the attic. They also installed a multi unit Samsung mini split, one head at about 30 feet and a second head about 100 feet. Once again, I requested the Samsung brand and sizes 12000 & 18000. Unit also has connections for 2 more heads if I ever wish to add more."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Murrells Inlet, SC

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.
