As you have probably encountered, Missouri winters can be very grueling and chilly. An important part of maintaining your homes warmth during the winter has a lot to do with the functionality, age and maintenance of the furnace in your home.
If your system is over 15 years old, then it might be time to consider replacing the unit to help decrease your utility bills. Purchasing an ENERGY STAR rated furnace can help put money back in your pocket while reducing your carbon foot print each year.
In fact, if every gas furnace sold in the U.S meets the new ENERGY STAR requirements, consumer energy cost savings would grow to about $171 million per year and annual greenhouse gas emissions would be reduced by the equivalent of those from about 177,000 cars (energystar.gov).
Our technicians are certified and trained in repairing most make and models of gas, electric, and oil furnaces. They perform a 28-point inspection to help determine the root cause of the problem. Once the diagnostic is performed and the technician makes recommendations for repair we quote the exact amount for parts and labor. We are upfront in our pricing so there are no hidden fees or surprises for our customers.
Having your system serviced is an important part in increasing the longevity and efficiency of your furnace. It is industry standard to have your system checked twice a year in order to sustain optimal performance and detect any potential threats. Safety is also a large concern when it comes to preserving your furnace, that’s why we check the four largest areas of concern. The following is a diagram of the inspection process and procedure of our preventative maintenance program.
When deciding on replacing your furnace, there are two facts to consider before making a purchase.
1. The size of your home
2. The efficiency of the unit
The size of your home plays a large role and will dictate the size of the furnace needed. If a small furnace is purchased by mistake, it will have to work overtime to heat your home. On the contrary, buying a furnace which is too big will not only be inefficient, but will also be more expensive as energy will be wasted by the unit as it excessively cycles on and off.
The second determining factor would be the efficiency of the unit. There is a wide range of efficiencies available when it comes to gas furnaces. They come in a range of 80-90% AFUE, Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency, comparative to miles per gallon for your car and measures how efficient the furnace is at heating your home.
We can help you determine which furnace, efficiency and application best suits your home. During the free survey our technician’s will go over options and suggestions for maximizing the heating efficiency of your home.
