"Had my spring maintenance done and couldn’t be happier with the service. The technician was on time, professional, and took the time to explain everything clearly they also swapped out my nest thermostat for an ecobee and got it set up. Everything is running great and I highly recommend Pass One Hour."

"Clay is honest and and reasonable. He does not try to sell you new equipment when you don t need it . He drove 90 miles when I hired him to work on my daughters furnace. When he got here we had ordered an expensive part that the furnace company told us we had to have to vent the furnace but, when he got here he told us it was vented fine and to send the part back. Turned out he was right and the furnace has been fine for a long time. He has done work for several of my family members and they have also been very happy with his services and his prices. Clay also has a big heart and worries about the elderly and people with children if their heat goes out. His logo says on the spot service and that is very fitting for his business as he will always gets to you pretty fast."

"They are excellent. I am a truck driver and not home very much. I needed my pipes winterized so they wouldn't freeze. The antifreeze is non-toxic. They drained my hot water heaters, put the antifreeze in. He turned off the water and made sure that it was winterized. I could turn the heat off. I thought it was high until, I realized they used two cases of antifreeze, and it is expensive. They were professional, courteous, and no issues. The price was good. I have no complaints with anything they did. I had to make an appointment, because they are busy. It took a while for them to come out on time and they showed up on time. Everything was good. They provided a good quality service at a reasonable price."

"Almost immediately upon my request for service (via the website) I received a response, and I got excellent service from that point forward through completion of the project. Each individual I spoke with and met face-to-face was a professional and expressed their desire to expedite my order even during a time when it was very hot here, and I knew their workload was heavy. I'm extremely satisfied with the new A/C and expect to be happy with the new furnace when it gets cold here. Thanks for your diligence and an overall excellent job! David Cantrall"

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Pittsburg, IL

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.
