"Scheduling was a breeze. Technician - Tim - on time and completed service in an efficient manner. Tim is knowledgeable of the workings of all systems and quick to point out things to keep an eye out for. He has worked on our systems for several years. Based on our experience with Climatemakers, they were the first one that my son called when his HVAC needed work and ultimately replacement,"

"We met Tim the owner at the Homeowner show at the Convention Center. Surprised at how personable he was. Cynthia, who handles customer service was very amiable and eager to help. Ryan, the service representative came out and gave us an estimate of a new HVAC system, since ours had died at the colder time this year.we accepted the bid and Ryan came out started the prep work. System was installed in one day. Ryan came out the next day to check everything. We concluded our business and we have wonderful heat. I cannot sing their praises enough. I would recommend them to anyone."

"I Requested a quote on line through Home Advisor for heating duct work on 2/22. Mr. Alston replied back in a short time. We set the day and time for a home visit. He and his helper arrived on time the day scheduled. They surveyed the area to determine what what was needed to solve my problem. I accepted his reasonable estimate and set the date and time to do the work. He and his helper arrived on time, made contact with me and went right to work on the project. The two men man together completed the job and in a reasonable amount of time I had heat flowing. I haven't dealt with this company before, but decided to give him a try. The two did a great job, was professional courteious and cleaned up afterwards. I am glad I called him. This is a family owned business, Veteran as am I. I will call him for all my future projects. He told me if my job needed, wasn't in his expertise, he will refer a reptible business to me. That I like, referrals. Thanks to them the Wife and I are comfortable now. I defiantly recommend Dram Alston Heating, A.C. and any home repairs to Dram."

"Cristian from RS Andrews did an outstanding job performing seasonal maintenance on our heat pump and air handling unit. He was very thorough and explained everything he was doing. Additionally he adjusted the dampers in ventilation system, located in our attic space. He demonstrated this process so I can do it myself in the future, if I need to. Extremely professional young man, very courteous. Highly recommended!"

"David has serviced my HVAC system. He troubleshooted and fixed my duct work damper actuators. Another time he corrected my control panel output. He has done regular maintenance on my A/C system. All times he was conscientious to get it done right and answered many questions that I asked him. And his service pricing was very reasonable. Will"

"I can’t say enough about this service. They clearly knew how to evaluate and fix the door. Unfortunately, it required more than I wanted To do, and they graciously took it out and disposed of the door. The price was fair, and the guys wonderful. I could not recommend them more."

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Suffolk, VA

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.
