"I hired them to come and install an exhaust fan as well as a thermostat. After realizing my hvac system also had a humidifier function that was incompatible with the thermostat I bought they were able to properly install my exhaust fan (I bought the wrong kind as well) and hung a chandelier under two hours. Very efficient and fair pricing."

"Polite, thorough, knowledgeable, timely, and skilled. Good qualities to have in a plumber when water is suddenly coming through your kitchen ceiling. They also went the extra mile to find me a drywaller who wouldn't rip me off. That was awesome."

"I had a 20+ year old A/C unit and baseboard heat. I was really not interested in a heat pump because I had heard a lot of horror stories but John really recommended it and Iâ m glad he did. Installation of a new A/C and heat pump was done when they said they would for how much they said it would cost, no hidden fees. Fantastic service. I was so impressed with the service, that when the A/C in my office broke. The A/C company the landlord used said he needed a whole new unit AND it was going to take 2-1/2 weeks before they could get it done. We were in the middle of a heatwaveâ ¦ and our office was a sweatshop. My boss says I could call my guy to see if they could do it any faster. Well, I called John at Hometown Heating & Cooling it was 4:30 in the afternoon and our office closes at 5pm. Hometown came out the very next morning, fixed our A/C the same dayâ ¦ instead of a $15,000 unit. Hometown fixed it for $250. Hometown earned the business from my boss and the landlord that day. I would HIGHLY recommend Hometown for any of your heating and cooling needs."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Ridgely, MD

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.
