"I've had some poor encounters with contractors over the years, in regards to heating and air conditioner repair and service. It was a pleasant experience to have James Nash, of Nash Heating and Air, install a smart thermostat today. He was on time, and obviously very experienced in his field. I would highly recommend him."

"I Contacted Clark's Heating & Cooling about 7:30 in the morning , after finding the furnace room floor soaking wet. I spoke to Tranis, and between the phone calls and text messages, including pictures that I took, he was able to determine that the humidifier was leaking. Due to appointments already scheduled that morning, he was unable to come to my location for a couple of hours, however that was fine, as he worked with me to unplug and bypass the equipment that was failing. When he arrived, he determined and showed me that the humidifier was unable to be saved. With the humidifier by-passed we were able to continue to use the furnace until the replacement humidifier was ordered and received.  The new humidifier arrived and was installed a couple of days later. Time delay for replacement equipment was due to the holiday. We are back up and running normally.  It was very helpful that he was able to walk me through unplugging and bypassing the system in the beginning, as it was very cold that morning, and I didn't want to have to turn off the furnace If I didn't have to !! I cannot say enough about Tranis, and his knowledge, attitude, and willingness to help a stranger on the phone. He was on-time, professional, worked quickly and efficiently. He cleaned up and took empty boxes and broken equipment when he left. Being a single female, I felt comfortable and safe with a new to me repairman working in the house. Thank you Tranis for a great experience !!"

FAQs for furnace / forced air heating system install or replace projects in Sylva, NC

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.
