Homeowners and businesses require a reliable heating system to keep occupants warm and cozy during the colder seasons. Property owners can call Elevate HVAC for professional furnace installation and related services.
A properly installed furnace evenly distributes heat from the central unit to the intended rooms, ensuring optimal warmth and comfort. A technician will assess your building to determine the correct size and load for safe and efficient furnace operation. Elevate HVAC will then install the appropriate furnace for your heating needs.
What Is Furnace Installation?
Furnace installation is a professional service that involves setting up a heating system in a building. A properly installed and maintained furnace ensures your home or business is warm and comfy during cold seasons. Elevate HVAC offers efficient heating options and furnace services to help prepare property owners for the winter.
An Elevate HVAC technician will assess your property and insulation levels to determine the ideal furnace system for your heating needs. Our team will properly size your home, evaluate your ductwork, and calculate the appropriate load requirements to select the precise size of furnace you need.
The last step involves testing and calibrating your furnace for safe and efficient operation. Our technicians will only require a day or two to complete the furnace installation service, depending on the furnace type and configuration.
Types of Furnaces
There are four main types of furnaces. They differ based on the fuel they use to operate. The ideal furnace depends on your budget, home’s square footage, load requirements, and heating needs.
The primary types of furnaces include:
Propane and Natural Gas Furnaces
Propane and natural gas furnaces rely on gas to heat your space. They have heating elements and a combustion chamber for warming your indoor air. Propane furnaces connect to an outdoor unit, while natural gas furnaces link to a municipal gas line. They operate through air ducts to circulate heated air throughout your home.
Oil Furnaces
Oil furnaces burn oil and convert it to heat before distributing it to your home or business. The only slight concern is that oil furnaces rely on non-renewable energy sources, making them less energy-efficient. They are appropriate for properties with limited access to gas or propane.
Electric Furnaces
Electric furnaces rely on electricity to operate. They draw air from your indoor space and pass it over electrically heated coils before circulating it throughout your home via a blower and ductwork system.
How Does a Furnace Work?
While there are different types of furnaces, they all utilize a similar working principle. Furnaces have a burner, blower fan, and air filters that work systematically to heat your home or business. They heat your space by pulling air from your indoor environment and passing it over a heat exchanger before moving it to the combustion chamber. Once heated, the furnace returns the heated air to your space through return ducts.
Benefits of Expert Furnace Installation
As temperatures drop in winter, many turn to furnaces and other heating systems to stay warm and comfortable. Properties that do not have a furnace or heat pump should consider calling a professional for quality furnace installation. The following are the benefits of enlisting the furnace services of Elevate HVAC:
Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
Older furnace models are less efficient than their modern counterparts. The latest models come with variable-speed motors, smart thermostats, and remote control systems. Some models even support dual-zone heating for optimal comfort and increased energy savings.
Improved Indoor Comfort
Furnaces become less efficient with age. Without proper maintenance, your furnace might not meet your heating needs. A new furnace installation can significantly enhance indoor comfort. Modern furnaces offer consistent heating, improved temperature control, and better airflow throughout the home.
Environmental Benefits
A new furnace installation can have several environmental benefits. Newer furnace models are eco-friendly and more efficient. They often use cleaner fuels and have efficient combustion processes for a lower carbon footprint and reduced greenhouse emissions.
Reliability and Longevity
Furnaces have a lifespan of about 10–25 years. New furnace installations have longer lifespans compared to older systems. In addition, they are less likely to break down unexpectedly. However, they do require regular furnace services and routine maintenance to ensure optimal performance.
