"I had to have a complete change out of my HVAC system. From the beginning of the service call with Joe the service manager to Drew the sales advisor it was a great experience. When the installers Rob and Seth arrived, they were on time. They were professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. They laid tarps down to protect the carpet and everything was nicely cleaned up when they finished. The replacement / installation was completed efficiently, and the system was tested and Seth explained the thermostat ops. Rob and Seth make a great team. Seth went above and beyond and brought in the heavy box of dog food that was delivered that morning from the porch. What an awesome job. Thank you Maynor HVAC."

"Carolina Comfort installed a new HVAC system at our home. They did a great job from the original recommendation on the type of unit- a ducted split system- to a quick scheduling of the work- and lastly installing the system. Ryan, Dylan and John were great- very polite and professional and got the system and fully installed and running within the time frame promised. Would definitely use them again."

"This was a very good experience from start to finish. The Operations Manager who came out to estimate the job was very through and professional. After inspecting the old system which was still functioning but not very efficient, he sized a new system based on the size of the home and my comments regarding the performance of the existing system. He explained the various options available and the relative cost of each. The difference between the lower grade systems and the top of the line was not that much different, especially with the factory rebate on the higher end system which is what we decided to go with. Once that was decided, the work was scheduled for about 2 weeks later. The crew showed up on time, removed the old system and began installation of the new. It took about a day and a half to get everything installed, including redoing some of the duct work at the furnace. The Operations Manager came by each day to check on the work and see if we had any questions or problems. Everything was cleaned up after the installation and we were totally pleased with the work. Another technician came by to install the and quot;smartand quot; thermostat and explain all the options.

We have been using the system now for one summer and two winters, and we are completely satisfied. After the first year, the company inspected the heating and cooling units and the thermostat to confirm that all were operating correctly. We had noticed a high pitched whine from the furnace which turned out to be caused by a combustion exhaust fan that was not perfectly balance. The fan was replaced and the problem resolved.

This was a good choice for both equipment and installer. We have an upstairs unit that does not get much use but may have to be replaced in a few years. We will definitely go back to Gand M when the time comes. We have recommended Gand M to our friends."

"Streamline Services is my go to place for plumbing and hvac repairs. I always have fantastic and speedy service. My last service call was truly exceptional and worth taking the time to review. I knew I needed my water heater replaced, and also a repair to my air conditioning system. I didn't feel pressured, and the technician answered every question I had, and I did not feel rushed into any decision. From the first phone call, to the time of install, I received nothing but great customer service. I won't call anyone else."

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