"Cape Cod Electrical has done several jobs for us and we highly recommend them. Initially, Nick installed our Generac generator and has kept it serviced over the past few years. Then we approached them about installing a mini-split system this spring. Again, they did an outstanding job and when a slight snafu arrived handled it rapidly and professionally. Nick has also done a smaller electrical job for us. We highly recommend them without reservation. Friendly and courteous and definitely interested in doing an excellent job to everyone's satisfaction."

"Iâ ve been trying to get a mini split installed for my master bedroom for quite some time. I called several different companies and got quotes but I wasnâ t comfortable going forward with them. When I contacted Heat Pump Solutions they were quick to give me a quote and i was surprised at the great price. I was also impressed by their level of professionalism. They came and did the install in less than a day. Talk about value for money!! Their team is amazing. I will definitely be having them install in guest bedroom. Now I wonâ t have to worry about the heat in the peak of the summer. Great job guys. I highly recommend Heat Pump Solutions."

"Tatra is the most professional company that we had in our home. Not only were they proficient they were clean respectful and quiet if you can believe that with a contractor company putting a/c heat pumps on two floors of our house. They are always right on time and work consistently throughout the day. I would not only recommend Tatra I would hire them again and again Kevin Patrick Foley"

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.
