Heating

When it comes to heating systems, bigger usually doesn’t mean better. However, a higher AFUE rating is better. If your heating system is more than 15 years old; a new energy efficient furnace could reduce the energy used by up to 30%.

Tuning and cleaning a furnace can also increase the efficiency. It is common for an existing to actually burn at levels 5-10% below their intended efficiency.

If you have cold rooms in your home; a new furnace may not be the solution. And if you do need to replace your furnace, make sure your home keeps the heat in before buying a larger furnace than necessary. Up to 40% of the heating load in a home is caused by air leaking out of the home. Addressing those leaks can dramatically improve the comfort and efficiency of your home and reduce the size of the heating system needed.
