"The technician was extremely thorough. Replace the thermostat batteries and furnace filter (I provided the parts), checked for any carbon monoxide leaks, checked the condition of furnace components, and found some bare wires that he taped up."

"The job went reasonably well. They completed it in a day and a half. The guys on site had a little trouble installing the high tech thermostat for the system, but their supervisor demonstrated real accountability when he showed up on a Saturday to make it right."

"Excellent service from Hecomo. Technician did not try to push purchase of a new HVAC system even though there were major issues with our system, feel comfortable while talking with an advisor. Very knowledgeable, patiently, friendly and nice person, answer all my questions. Later on, we decided to replace the whole new system with fair price and wasn’t ripped off as others. Very professional and well trained technician. I will definitely use them again."

"Overall the job went well. We needed a new HVAC system which included a new gas furnace and new AC unit. The sales rep was punctual and responsive to questions. The installation team was punctual as well. The B ratings in some categories is due mostly to communication issues to occurred. Apparently some of the things the sales rep agreed to with us were not communicated to the installation team, so when they invited me down to inspect the work three minor items had not been completed. After I brought it up, the installation team offered to do the work in order to ensure I was satisfied, but they also brought up some valid points on why having that work done may not be what I actually wanted. Therefore I was confused. After calling the company main office, the owner owner called me back within 30 minutes to talk through options to ensure I was satisfied with the job. We agreed that two minor items didn't need to be changed, and he offered an upgrade on the third item, at no additional cost to achieve the functionality that was missing from the third minor item. That component was installed the next day. Lastly, the installation team missed some small trash items when they cleaned up the exterior part of the job."

"During the initial service visit, the representative (Xavier) gave a detailed explanation of the condition of the HVAC system and the repair options. I hired JDL and two days later they arrived first thing in the morning to install a new system (furnace and A/C). The quality of their work and products recommended are excellent. I highly recommend their services."

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.
