"Excellent service! We needed a new system desperately, and since Strive provides financing, it made our choice that much easier. Everyone was very polite, friendly, professional and helpful. They got us on the schedule quickly, during what was becoming a hectic period for them, and got the install done promptly and professionally. We highly recommend Strive for your heating and cooling needs, and we look forward to working with them in the future!"

"Arizona Rug Co. recently completed cleaning and restoring our rugs for us and we could not be more impressed with the quality of their work. The older and larger of the rugs no longer looks 42 years old. I recommend, as a designer, taking care of quality rugs in order to enjoy them fully. It also needs to be said that this company has a varied selection of rugs available from the well stocked showrooms, both in Tempe and Scottsdale, with knowledgeable sales staff."

Customers say: Quality work
"Mr. Raffensberger was extremely knowledgaable and was careful to do everything right and to a very high quality. Fees were very reasonable. I'm exceptionally pleased with the new high efficiency boiler installed at a different location than the old one was in our basement. It was necessary to run a lot of new hot water heating lines, add a natural gas supply to the boiler location, and add air intakes and exhaust through the walls of the old brick farmhouse. The new boiler is heating at a far lower cost than the old oil boiler from the 1950's. Mr Raffensberger didn't cut corners. The installation and operation are great!"

"I have had problems with my furnace locking up ever since UGI-Miller worked on the gas line near our house. Rohrerâ s has been incredibly great, thorough and patient at coming out, trouble-shooting, and getting the furnace working, despite the problem probably not being caused by their system. UGI-Miller on the other hand, never responded to repeated calls."

"Total Heating and Cooling was knowledgable and experienced with geothermal heat. They gave us a very reasonable quote (we got 5 different quotes). They got the unit in quickly for us since our system had stopped working. They were easy to work with, very accomodating. So far we are very pleased with our new system! Thank you!"

"Tash has done a great job! When I bought my house A/C unit stopped working. I searched for a local heating and air conditioner team. He was available same day, came out to check my unit and gave me reasonable quote for entire high efficiency furnace and A/C unit. I can say that he is well educated and knew what he was doing. Unit was ordered and installed with no issue. I highly recommend ATD Tech for Heating and air conditioning needs."

"I have been with another HVAC company for many years but last year had a problem with my oil furnace and it appeared they have lost all their experienced oil furnace technicians and could not sort out the problem with mine. I wanted to find an experienced oil furnace tech and I found Larry Price that owns Purified Air LLC. Larry came out and serviced and repaired my oil furnace a reasonable price for the upcoming heating season. If you need an experienced oil burner technician, Larry Price and Purified Air LLC is the place to go."

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.
