Are you thinking about buying a new furnace or heating system? Is the first thing that comes to mind, and is generally the most pressing concern, is what your new furnace will cost?.
You can essentially lower the purchase cost and the operating costs of the new system installed in your home by taking the time to carefully consider the potential HVAC contractors properly and then compare the cost of the different types of heating systems.
Sizing
Let's say you decide to purchase a ninety-eight percent efficiency or so furnace. You'll expect it to perform to peak efficiency, and rightly so. Your system will only perform to expectation if it's correctly sized. Your contractor must follow industry-leading practices for sizing the furnace, called the Manual J method, which involves calculating its capacity to put out heat compared to its energy input based on your home's size, window efficiency and other factors. When the system is sized correctly, you may be able to purchase a smaller (correctly sized) furnace that will cost you less to purchase.
Installation
The quality of installation will affect the operating costs associated with your new furnace. Although this won't affect the initial purchase price. It's important to select a reputable contractor properly trained in the actions necessary to correctly install your heating system. Energy Star estimates that homeowners can lower energy costs by as much as thirty percent when the HVAC installer follows its Quality Installation Guidelines. When installers fail to follow standard practice, ignoring factors like airflow rates and sealing ducts, your energy costs go up.
Choosing The Right Contractor
The contractor you choose to work with will make all the difference in the world. That's because our service professional will not only help you select the right system for your home, and therefore needs to have the expertise to know what you need, but the HVAC dealer needs the experience and training to ensure a correct sized system, along with many other factors.
Also, new furnaces are designed to integrate with high-efficiency air conditioners, so furnace blowers are more powerful to accommodate add-on cooling. Since cold air is much heavier than warm air, your system needs an extra boost from the blower to deliver cool air throughout your home. If you have an older home, this performance boost could produce unfamiliar sounds because air duct systems were originally designed for heating only. To minimize sound levels, choose a variable speed product which automatically changes speeds to meet the airflow needs of both heating and cooling cycles.
