Selecting the ideal furnace for your home is a crucial decision that impacts not only your comfort during the colder months, but also your wallet. At Forquer Heating and Cooling, we specialize in guiding homeowners through the maze of options available. We ensure that you make the most informed choice possible. Here’s a brief overview of the four primary types of furnaces and their respective benefits and drawbacks.
Furnace Types
- Natural Gas Furnaces: Currently the most efficient and cost-effective option. High-efficiency models boast up to 97% efficiency, translating to minimal venting and lower BTU costs.
- Propane Furnaces: A viable alternative for rural areas without natural gas lines. These furnaces can be converted to natural gas, offering flexibility for future infrastructure developments.
- Oil Furnaces: Known for their high heat output, oil furnaces are more labor-intensive and costlier over time compared to natural gas, akin to diesel fuel costs.
- Electric Furnaces: While offering 100% efficiency and convenience (no need for fuel delivery), electric furnaces present the highest operational costs among the options.
