Personalized Forced-Air Furnace Installation in Prescott

Our company offers a wide selection of furnace options for your home heating system. We’ll also perform a custom load calculation to ensure you choose the ideal furnace size. Doing so will minimize your heating bills, total costs, and carbon footprint in the years ahead.

We install electric furnaces and both mid-efficiency and high-efficiency fuel furnaces. We’ll generally recommend fuel furnaces in this region because they’re more cost-effective long term. We also suggest high-efficiency models as an investment that’s well worth it. Consider that a standard modern gas furnace is about 80% efficient. The high-efficiency gas furnaces on the market range from about 90% to 98.5% efficiency.

Should You Repair or Replace Your Furnace?

The top furnace manufacturers recommend using $5,000 in costs as a guideline. If the age of your furnace times the cost of the repair is over $5,000, it’s time to upgrade. Other signs that it’s time to replace your furnace include:

Furnace is older than 15 years
Heating bills continue to go up
System is less than 70% efficient
Uneven heating throughout your home
Heating resulting in low humidity levels
Big rebates and other incentives available

Heat Pump Installation Services in Prescott

A heat pump is an efficient electric heating system that provides both heating and cooling. Hybrid heating systems continue to gain in popularity, too. That’s where you have a heat pump for cooling and primary heating and a furnace for auxiliary heating. It costs more than a traditional setup initially, but can save significant money over the years.

The Advantages of Heat Pumps Over Forced-Air Furnaces

A core advantage of heat pumps is that you can opt for a system that efficiently runs on electricity exclusively. That means there’s no combustion and concerns about carbon monoxide poisoning. Other advantages of heat pumps compared to furnaces include:

Lower total cost of ownership
Reduced month-to-month heating bills
No need to have a dedicated exhaust system
Heating and cooling in a single HVAC solution
Big rebates, tax credits, and other energy incentives
Efficiency three to five times better than combustion

Custom Boiler Solutions for Prescott Homes

Our heating technicians provide a full range of boiler installation services for new and older houses in communities like Oak Grove. An advantage of switching to a hydronic heating system is better indoor air quality. It also gives you the option of radiant floor heating. Many consider it the ideal home heating because it radiates through rooms from bottom to top.

We perform partial and full hydronic heating replacements as well. Often, you can reuse some of your existing equipment, such as baseboard or wall radiators. Our technicians install both hot water and steam boilers. We typically recommend steam-to-steam replacements because they are a cost-effective approach. Otherwise, we recommend hot water boilers, as they’re more efficient and provide finer temperature control. Hot water boilers are also much more convenient when it comes to adding radiant floor heating.

FAQs

Let’s explore several of the most common questions about our Prescott heating services.

When Should I Upgrade My Heating System to New Equipment?

Our recommendations for HVAC replacements in Prescott come down to factors like system age, system efficiency, and repair costs. If you need an expensive repair but the warranty covers it, then it’s usually worthwhile. Otherwise, you may spend more now but can save money in the years ahead through a replacement. Modern heating systems cost less to run month to month and may have energy incentives to consider.

Should I Upgrade My Furnace or Boiler to a High-Efficiency System?

If you heat your home with a standalone, fuel-burning furnace or boiler, a high-efficiency system is usually worth the added investment. Traditional fuel-burning heating systems experience heat losses as a byproduct of venting toxic gases. High-efficiency systems have a second heat exchanger to help mitigate those losses. That improves fuel consumption by about 10% at least, and often to a much greater degree.

Is an Advanced Thermostat Worth It for My New Heating System?

The Department of Energy recommends advanced thermostat control for all U.S. homes. That’s because even a basic programmable thermostat can reduce annual heating costs by up to 8%. It can control your cooling system as well and lower those costs by up to 10%. Smart thermostats often provide additional ways to save, including energy monitoring and occupancy sensing.
