"Prompt and efficient. Polite and personable. They sent a technician to help our old furnace to function on the Saturday before New Years. It held out until this last Wednesday, the 8th, when we opted to have a new furnace and heat pump system installed. Work was completed in a timely manner. The installers and electricians were outstanding in explaining new info about operations and more. Great experience!!"

"Northwest Expert Heating, LLC was a great company to work with. We had a furnace that failed, and out of all the people in the area we called they were the only ones who were available within 24 hours to come out. They determined we needed a new furnace and within just a couple days they had a new one installed. A few days after the install they came out again to make some fine tuning adjustments to the new equipment to make sure that things were just right. The folks at Northwest Expert Heating, LLC are very pleasant, easy to talk to, informative, with excellent in home customer service. I would highly recommend them for all your home heating and cooling needs."

"I had them come out to do a 'tune up' and annual inspection. They found out why my bill was so high. The company who installed my all electric heat pump system (2023) programmed the thermostat (the contractor part, not the setting the user has access to) incorrectly. Hart changed it to what it should be. By my estimation I have likely overpaid on excess of $3,000 since I moved in to this new construction home. I highly recommended having them out to verify if your system needs help. If your electric bill is over $200 a month you should call them immediately. I wish I had called them in 2023. Can't recommend them enough. Also, Dan was on time, professional, tidy, and communicated well."

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.
