"Duke did a great job at a fair price. We needed AC and decided to replace our old furnace at the same time. In addition Duke wrapped with insulating bubble wrap our old ducts that were exposed. He tied the drip line into our existing downspout in a neat fashion. I'd highly recommend him (he's a fellow submarine vet too!!)."

"I recently had a new HVAC system installed by Aireserv, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. From the beginning, the team was professional, courteous, and informative. They arrived on time and were very thorough in explaining the detailed installation plan, the features of the new system, and how to operate it. The installation went smoothly, and the technicians cleaned the area while working. Once the system was installed, they ran tests to ensure everything was working perfectly and took the time to answer all of my questions. The new HVAC system has been a game-changer in terms of performance. It heats and cools my home more efficiently than my previous unit, and I've noticed a significant improvement in comfort and air quality. The system runs quietly and maintains an even temperature throughout my home. I also appreciate the energy savings I'm already seeing. My energy bills have been noticeably lower, which I can directly attribute to the new system's efficiency. Overall, I'm delighted with the service from Aireserv and the performance of the HVAC system. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of HVAC installation or upgrades. They provided excellent service from start to finish! A BIG THANK YOU TO ALTON THOMPSON AND HIS TEAM FROM AIRESERV."

"Smart Heating and Air Conditioning was the most professional, friendly, and knowledgeable company I’ve worked with. From our first contact, we felt like we were working with family. Our furnace went out and the techs and installers were all so amazing with keeping us all informed, especially Susie who works in the office. But what really showed me how great this company was, is that they saw our handle to our screen door wasn’t functioning and they were so kind to offer to fix the issue. They fixed it in 5 mins. You don’t see this type of generosity anymore, so we appreciate that! Our furnace and air were replaced for a great price and we couldn’t be happier. I would highly recommend this company for your heating and conditioning needs!"

"Albert Nahman PHC installed new AC and Furnace for my house. I like them for several reasons -- 1. At first Tom explained in detail what equipment I need and how they work, and gave me a reasonable and detailed quote at end of the visit. 2. They offer interest free finance. 3. I got free upgrade for furnace when the original quoted is not available. 4. Their installer did good job, and cleaned up afterward. I highly recommend this company."

"Angel was extremely professional, informative, and very nice as well. I got quotes from five different companies and the quote I received from Elite Heating & Air was by far the best. They came out and installed the system as scheduled in about half a day. I am very happy with my choice."

"We had an excellent experience with Alanis Air HVAC. We are in an older house, and the installation of mini-split units with a heat pump was the most efficient solution to our heating and cooling situation. John, Santiago, and Jose provided expert installation. They were extremely efficient, and also tireless. Santiago and Jose came and worked into the night on several occasions to make this project work on time. They also handled carpentry and repainting. In the end we have an efficient, highly effective new system. These gentlemen were extremely pleasant to work with and totally accommodating of our schedule. I would definitely recommend them again. I should mention that this installation was a major economic commitment, and we are totally satisfied with the work and with the relationship we had with John and Alanis."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in San Ramon, CA

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.
