"Premier was very organized and efficient. They quoted us an acceptable price and did a good job on the installation of a new furnace. We live in Avila Beach, so the area they cover is broad. Jonathan is very good to deal with and I have no hesitation in recommending Premier Heating."

"This was our first experience using Wighton’s and it won’t be the last. Aaron was very professional and very nice to work with. Our air conditioner stopped working and he was able to fix it and did some maintenance work on the unit also. He also pointed out that we needed to replace the air filter which services our hvac system, which we were grateful that he did because we had never had it changed out with a new one and it was long overdue. We signed up for their maintenance program so that our ac/heating will be inspected and maintained on a regular basis. We are very happy with his work and highly recommend Wighton’s!"

"Efficient is the perfect word to describe this company. A highly professional installation team arrived early in the morning and the job was completed prior to noon. We had a new HVAC heat pump system installed to replace a gas-fired system. Pricing was on point. The system is virtually noise-free compared to that which was removed. Tim, the Owner was very easy to deal with on every level (no hard sell). Highly recommend."

"I first used Patagonia HVAC when my home AC broke. Guillermo, the owner, responded promptly and provided a quote for the repair. He worked with me to find the best new system within my budget and completed the installation within days. He was incredibly professional, and my AC has been working wonderfully ever since! I later hired him when the AC went down at my grocery store, and Guillermo had it repaired the very same day we called. I couldn’t recommend Patagonia HVAC more highly!"

"The engineer Tai was very knowledgeable , quickly determining the heating and cooling system requirements and ordering them. Two days later, installers David and Diego arrived when they said they would, with everything they needed for the installation. A few hours later the work was completed, tested and the whole area cleaned up good as new. I would recommend SoCal for anyone who needs heating or cooling installation or service."

"Monty does excellent work. I needed a window AC installed which involved some custom fitting and mounting. I have a sliding window from left to right instead of up and down so to do a clean install was more involved than a traditional up down sliding window. I believe Monty went above and beyond to make sure the work was quality and addressed all my concerns. He made sure the whole installation was well sealed off using generous amounts of silicone.I highly recommend him for any handyman work you might need accomplished."

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