"I have been using UIC's services for several years now. They have replaced two older furnaces a couple of years ago with new 2-stage Carrier Infinity units. They have performed flawlessly. Last week our third unit, the main furnace, was replaced with the new Carrier Infinity Modulating Air technology as recommended by Paul, our sale representative. Bruce, Jeff & Wes did a fabulous job on removing the old, and installing the new furnace. They were on time, well equipped, professional, thorough and completed the replacement furnace installation by 5:00 PM. A big job indeed. The new furnace is simply amazing. You must stand next to it to hear it running. The house is much more comfortable given the very slow furnace run modes with continual air movement (undetectable). Another great experience with UIC. I *highly* recommend the UIC team and equally as important, the new Carrier products. Thank you UIC!"

"Emergency AC repair service was provided very quickly on a sweltering summer day. Gen3 tech Justin identified and clearly explained the problem and then did the repair, restoring cool air to my overheated home. Excellent experience! Based on this, I called Gen3 for my fall furnace check-up. Travis did a thorough inspection, identified potential future problems and provided a clear explanation of the furnace's current status. Another excellent experience. Also must commend the Gen3 front office staff who always answer the phone, keep you updated and are a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend this company."

"I was fortunate to find Doug Heath through the Service Magic website. After having several issues with a different company, I decided to look for someone else to clean and maintain my heating system in my new home, and I'm glad I did. Doug was knowledgeable, courteous, and most importantly, punctual and professional. He was at my home on time, and walked me through every step of the process. He even installed a programmable thermostat I had for a fair price. Overall, his prices were good, and his workmanship was even better. I would definitely recommend Doug Heath to others, and will use him again for any and all maintenance purposes. Thanks!"

"Greg reached out to me immediately after I sent out a request to check my heating system. He came down and immediately diagnosed what the issue was, ordered the needed replacement part, constantly updated me of when he expected to receive it. Within a day, he received and replaced faulty part and my heating system is back up and running. I highly recommend APT due to my wonderful experience with Greg."

"Heat exchanger had cracked on the old furnace. Had a slow carbon monoxide leak into my house. Once leak was discovered we immediately stopped using the furnace. Can't say enough about the Christian team. They didn't try to sell me a product i didn't need. They were extremely responsive to my initial call. The company also let me borrow two space heaters so that my house wouldn't freeze until the installation date. The installation itself went well with no major issues. Before leaving the installers went over all of the work completed and gave me a quick training on the new digital thermostat.

"George was great! He got in touch with me right away, came out the same day to assess an issue with a broken gas valve, gave me a very reasonable quote, and scheduled to do the work on a day that was good for me. He came exactly when he said he would and the work was completed in a couple of hours. His communication was excellent throughout the entire process, start to finish. I would highly recommend Caliber Heating and Cooling to everybody and will definitely use him again if I ever need work done. Thanks George!"

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.
