"We purchased our air conditioner and furnace from The Right Choice last year and are very pleased with the units. Today Elie came to our house to check the filter in the furnace and to make sure everything was in good working order. He arrived on time, was very cordial and professional. He explained everything he was going to do and even cleaned up when he was finished."

"Top energy solutions did a highly professional and skilled job in installing two furnaces and two air conditioners and also remove and install new attic insulation in my home. One furnace was gas and one was heat pump electric. If the installers were supposed to be on the job at 8:00am they were here. The installers were highly skilled and cleaned up at the end of each day.

Every aspect of the job (planning, designing, installation, etc.) was done at a highly ethical, professional and skilled level. Based on my husbandâ  s and my experience, Top Energy Solutions deserves the highest rating possible and we highly recommend the company for heating and cooling solutions. We will not hesitate to use them again for other properties."

"The customer service was outstanding, the team was highly professional and they made sure I was satisfied with every aspect of the work. I would highly recommend Belle Air Services. I am delighted with the mini split system they installed,. They were on time, courteous, professional, very careful of my home and wore masks and shoes covers throughout the day. There was an issue with a confusing an automated text messaging system that told me another person would be coming to my home. But they made up for that by ensuring that everything was correctly installed and ready to go and came back the next day immediately to check that the system was working correctly."

"Total Home Environmental HVAC repaired my 1994 furnace. Although the furnace was not technically supported by the manufacturer, the service technician researched the unit on-line, sourced the parts and repaired the unit as promised. I am very pleased with the results and also with the lifetime warranty."

"Very knowledgeable, professional, and great customer service! Penguin, serviced our central AC & Heat and they explained everything to us before performing the work. They also replaced our moldy insulation in our attic. They packed and transported the old moldy insulations, ensuring that the mold does not spread, and they left our house free of any mess. I'd recommend Penguin Heating and Air to anybody in need of AC/Heat service, repair, or installation."

"This HVAC company is honest and professional, definitely the one to hire. I had another company replace my A/C units last summer and level the furnace, but the system broke down after 6 months. There were several parts of the system that they failed to repair or even inform me about. Reese spent the time to give me a fair and accurate estimate, and even encouraged me to get other estimates before hiring them! Lance the installer came out to replace my old furnace and repair a few parts of the A/C system that had been slapped together, but he went above and beyond to expand my attic access, improve the drainage and bring the whole system up to code. The A/C and heating work great now, and my family and I feel safer knowing that Lance put in the extra time to carefully check everything."

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