Furnace Replacement FAQ
Your furnace is a large, complex unit that will deliver years of exceptional heating to your entire home. It must be installed correctly, otherwise, this costly investment can go to waste. Multiple factors determine the overall cost of a new furnace installation, but the type of furnace you choose has the largest impact. Our expert HVAC technicians at Absolute Services will help you find the perfect furnace to install that’s best for your Kentucky home. The 3 main types of new furnace installations available are:
Gas furnaces are the most commonly installed furnaces in Louisville homes. More efficient than installed oil furnaces, but less than electric, gas furnaces are typically the cheapest to run, as they use natural gas as an energy source. With this, your home runs the risk of creating a buildup of carbon monoxide, and your furnace will require ongoing maintenance throughout its life. Gas furnaces are, however, the least expensive model to run using natural gas, making them a favorable choice for furnace replacement.
The electric furnace is another popular choice for homeowners. Electric furnace installations are less expensive, as they require only electricity and not natural gas line piping installation or oil storage tanks. On the flip-side, electrical furnaces are the most expensive to run due to their high usage of electricity. Electric furnaces remain a common furnace replacement option with their comparatively lower purchase costs & minimal lifespan maintenance. Ask an Absolute Services HVAC expert today if the cost of an electric furnace replacement is worthwhile for your home.
Oil furnaces are not what they once were in Kentucky, but they still offer some attractive benefits. Oil furnaces can heat large spaces evenly & have fewer emissions than gas furnaces, with no risk of carbon monoxide leakage in your home. However, oil furnaces do require an on-site oil storage tank for fuel & an oil delivery service. Oil is typically more expensive than natural gas and has the lowest efficiency rating for heating per its energy source, however, this depends largely on your Kentucky location. Call us today to schedule a furnace replacement quote to see if an oil furnace installation is a right fit for your home.
