"I am thoroughly impressed with the exceptional service I received from HD Mechanical! Their team recently installed mini splits in my home, and the entire experience was seamless and professional. From the initial consultation to the final installation, their expertise and attention to detail were evident. The installers were courteous, informative, efficient, and ensured a precise installation. The mini splits are now providing comfortable and quiet heating and cooling, exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend them for their accuracy, professionalism, and top-notch service. Five stars and a job well done!"

"I highly recommend this company. Penguin heating & Air was very quick to respond to my request, fast text reply, sent them pics, they replied with a quote, which was way lower than anyone else on this site, or even our regular guy that we normally use, we scheduled an appointment for the very next day, which was today, he also finished the job the same day! David did a very good job, very professional. Despite a terrible rainy day, he got the job done. When he was done he walked me through with exactly what he did. He also quoted me for a service on an existing unit and his quote was almost $200 less than what our regular guy charges us... We will absolutely be using this company again."

"Well this is an easy review to write. I received bids from no fewer than 5 companies, and had a wide range of experiences. But SoCal Climate Control, was second lowest in price (the lowest was for much lesser quality equipment), but highest in value. I have a home built in the 40's, and while they asked about/ offered other services, it never had the feeling of an up-sale. In fact, they said I was over buying initially (what I asked for). I followed their advise and couldn't be happier. I replace 3 window AC units with a 4 head 3.5 ton mini split system. I had it installed in early May (it is now December) and this had to be the most comfortable summer ever in this house. The units in the bedrooms are so quiet I can hear quartz wall clocks ticking over them. They are also heat pumps, which will also replace my gas wall furnace. The install crew were very professional, very careful, and super polite. Thank you guys, a super job and a super product."

"I always had airflow issues in my house, I always thought it was normal, until I decided to reach out for help. Mario with CoolPros Heating and Air came out and gave me a free evaluation. He found most of my ducts had holes, and had major air leaks. I decided to replace with him for a great price he gave me. The quality of service and customer experience was beyond my expectations. Thank you. . Coolpros heating and air! I already referred my sister and she’s having her system installed next week!"

"Serg from West Coast was excellent. Very knowledgeable, friendly, and he repaired our furnace issue quickly. I would absolutely recommend hiring West Coast. I feel we were charged a very reasonable price, plus they took the cost of the service call off the repair cost."

"Outstanding. Duane is the best HVAC professional I've ever worked with. He thoroughly explained the HVAC process and standard yearly preventative maintenance requirements. He also gave me a quick tutorial about my particular A/C unit and explained how to spot any early signs of malfunction in order to prevent future expensive repairs. Top notch, highly recommended."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in South Gate, 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.
