How Do I Know If I Need a New Furnace?

If your furnace is over 15 years old, frequently needs repairs, or struggles to heat your home evenly, it may be time for a replacement . Rising energy bills and unusual noises can also indicate a failing system. A professional inspection can determine whether a new furnace is the best option for efficiency and comfort.

What Are the Benefits of Installing a New Furnace?

A new furnace provides improved energy efficiency, more consistent heating, and fewer repair issues. Modern models come with advanced features like variable-speed blowers and smart thermostat compatibility. Upgrading can also reduce energy bills and improve overall indoor air quality.

Should I Choose a Gas or Electric Furnace?

Gas furnaces tend to be more cost-effective for long-term heating, as natural gas is often cheaper than electricity. Electric furnaces, however, require less maintenance and can be a better option for homes without a gas line. The best choice depends on your home’s setup, budget, and heating preferences.

How Long Does Furnace Installation Take?

Most furnace installations can be completed within a single day, but complex setups may take longer. The process includes removing the old unit, installing the new system, and testing for proper operation. Our team ensures a smooth installation with minimal disruption to your home.

Can a New Furnace Lower My Energy Bills?

Yes, modern furnaces are designed with higher energy efficiency ratings, meaning they use less fuel or electricity to generate the same amount of heat. A properly installed and well-maintained furnace can significantly reduce heating costs. Choosing a high-efficiency model with an ENERGY STAR® rating can maximize savings.

What Size Furnace Do I Need for My Home?

The right furnace size depends on factors like your home’s square footage, insulation, and climate. An undersized unit will struggle to heat your home, while an oversized unit may cycle too frequently, leading to inefficiency. A professional load calculation ensures you get the best system for optimal comfort and efficiency.

Do I Need to Upgrade My Thermostat When Installing a New Furnace?

While not always necessary, upgrading to a smart thermostat can enhance your new furnace’s efficiency and performance. A modern thermostat allows for better temperature control, scheduling, and energy savings. Our technicians can install and program a compatible thermostat for maximum comfort.

What Should I Do to Prepare for Furnace Installation?

Clearing the area around your current furnace and ensuring easy access for technicians can help streamline the installation process. If possible, have a plan for pets and small children to keep them safe during the work. Our team will handle the rest, ensuring a hassle-free and professional installation experience.

James was polite, attentive, easy to talk with, & explained everything really well. I felt confident that he was satisfied that my unit is functioning as it should. He suggested it has a good cleaning done in the spring, which I will follow up on. The price will be very reasonable. I'm grateful for his time, knowledge & friendly service! Carrie Miller

New update: Nathan came by today for annual plumbing maintenance. Very friendly and explained every part of the plan and what we found along the way. As with James, when Nathan called for the 30-minute warning, he asked if I needed any snacks or drinks. That's a nice unique way for Ted's HVAC to work with their customers.

Nathan is extremely professional & knowledgeable with plumbing. He checked everything that he was supposed to:in and under our home. Even tested our water. He came back with several plans on what should be upgraded and taken into serious consideration. We chose a plan and had the tank with bladder replaced. He had one in his truck. All plans were presented on an iPad and then emailed. There was no pressure sale to do anything. Plumbing is pricey, but in range of expectations. Nathan replaced the tank. The whole process beginning to end was 6 hours. It was a pleasure to work with him. The office is also very imformative and easy to work with. Thank you.

This is my final review for Ted's and I still rate it a five star company. My new hearing system was installed by Seth and Cam. It is working perfectly. They were two young men who proved to be incredibly professional, hardworking, and dedicated to doing an exceptional job. They knew the Diakin system very well and were able to explain things to me in detail. They worked for 12 straight hours without complaint. The next day Seth returned to make some final adjustments and do some fine tuning. I hope their employer knows what hard workers they are. So Ted's HVAC was a completely new company for me and ended up providing routine maintenance, recommending a new system, and installing it all within several days. I plan to continue with this company for a long time and believe that I can trust them to do their best for their customers. They have excellent employees.
