"Jeff and his Team were OUTSTANDING !!! I had to replace a very old 45 Y.O. plus Oil furnace. After calling several other companies for a comparable replacement ( including my oil provider ), Jeff was the only company that really asked about my heating needs, plan for staying in the home and even reviewed some other options that would be best for me and my family. Comfort wise and financially. We agreed on a gas system and an installation date. d/t a sudden leak, Jeff and his team moved me up into there already crazy schedule to ensure that my family didn't have any serious damage. Jeff really walked me through the entire process to have everything ready and on time to meet the progression of the job. The job was complete in no time. His team is professional, friendly, clean and respectful. I will definitely use them for all my plumbing and heating needs from now on. Thank you to Jeff and his TEAM !!! Dave B."

"Our daughter and her husband are living out of the country, temporarily. When their leasees said the furnace was blowing cold air, we wanted the repair done quickly and at a good price. Unique Indoor Comfort Heating & Cooling responded right away and came to the property the same day we called. Very professional!"

"I have a two-story single family house. Condenser of my outdoor unit for the 1st floor was shorted to ground so I need to replace it. Mike stopped by and patiently explained and discussed with me for all the options. Then back and forth with me for the configuration and pricing for different options. The whole team are friendly, helpful, and very patient. Installation went smoothly and quickly. The heat pump works great. My old oil based hydronic system was wired correctly as the backup heat source. Morris, the service tech, is smart, and figured out how to wire a complicated system. I cannot be happier with the pricing and quality of the work. I will hire them again to replace my 23 year old AC for the 2nd floor next spring. Thank you very much!"

"Joyce Cooling and Heating installed a new high-efficiency Lennox furnace and air conditioner. The installation looks great and was professionally completed. The furnace is working fantastic and is so quiet we can't even hear it running. We are warm and comfortable all the time and the new high-efficiency design should save us money for many years to come. The technicians answered all of my numerous questions."

"Mike was thorough, professional, and everything I could ask for in a contractor. He showed tremendous knowledge of the systems his company sells, their suitability to my house in particular, attentive to my concerns, and quick to bring rebates and other sales to my attention. If I had gone with a mini-split system, I would have used N.E.T.R. without a doubt. I remain very pleased with my interactions with Mike, even though they didn't result in a sale.

"We have a heating service contract with Sila and had our annual scheduled service call on 2/26/19. We've always had excellent experiences with the staff who have serviced our furnace, and today was no exception. The technician, Guy, came promptly and very efficiently performed the required testing and measurements of the service procedure. Before he left, I asked for some information about future replacement of the burner and possible changes to our heating zone arrangement. He gave a very clear explanation of what to consider about making any future changes, what might potentially be involved, and answered all of our questions knowledgeably. Thanks to him we can proceed with our decision process with better understanding."

"we have a crazy heating system; no one in the ten years we've had the house has really been able to figure it out. That's just life. When the heating stopped working (in January) we called Milltown. They were very responsive. We had a technician here in a day who figured out there was a leak. Finding the source, and how to isolate it was anything but simple. The tech in charge persisted (figured out, in fact that the system had been piped wrong) and solved the problem over the course of a day and a half. Many would have thrown up their hands or managed some bad technical band-aid. It was expensive (but plumbing sort of always is, and I don't think this rose to the level of unfair), but importantly the system is now better understood and there's no more leak. On top of that all of my questions were answered and the work was done well. Highly recommended."

"Hello Everyone! I'd like to give Milltown a shout out for installing our new HTP Combo unit. I'd like to especially thank Garret, Brandon, and Kat for pulling the whole thing together and making the installation as seamless as possible. Also, shout out to HTP for replacing a defective unit. They stood up and did the right thing when they didn't have to. Milltown went above and beyond what a plumbing company would typically do. When our combo unit failed, we lost heat and hot water. Milltown was able to hook up a temporary hot water tank so my family had access to heated water for showering, dishes, etc. Everyone I spoke to were genuinely concerned and could not have been more professional in their workmanship, cleanliness, and finished product. I am very pleased with everything from start to finish."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in North Chelmsford, MA

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.
