We can’t deny that boilers are some of the most durable and incredible heating systems on the market. They last longer than forced-air systems, they arguably produce better warmth, and they’re overall easy to maintain. However, this doesn’t run true for every boiler.

Electric furnaces are an interesting topic to talk about. It’s not usually the first type of furnace system that homeowners in our area tend to think about, but it’s absolutely one that we recommend for certain homes that really wouldn’t do well with a gas furnace. If your home has an electric furnace, or you’ve been thinking about upgrading your furnace to one that better suits your needs, then this could be the blog post for you.
People who don’t interact with the HVAC world very often think their problems are one of a kind. They think that their heater is exhibiting some kind of abnormal issue that will be extremely difficult to diagnose for a professional. That’s why people are driven to look at online solutions so ofte—they think their unique case requires some serious internet sleuthing in order to find what the real problem is.

Here’s a question we have for you—what makes you choose your heating contractor over and over again? Is it the fact that you trust their craftsmanship and expertise?

If you’ve been following our blog for the last few weeks, you might notice a trend. We’re taking a big step to be proactive heading into 2021, and with each blog post, we’re deciding to focus on heater maintenance. Welcome to January, heater maintenance month!
You’d be surprised by how many homeowners opt-out of heater maintenance. Whether it’s because they think it’s unnecessary, think it’s a scam, or don’t even know what heater maintenance is, this is a bad move. It’s like opting out of oil changes for your car, or opting out of paying your bills every month. Sure, it’s your decision, but it’s far from the best one.
It’s heating season, which means comfortable temperatures for homeowners with reliable heaters, and sleepless nights for those that don’t. Heaters always bring with them a certain amount of concerns that just aren’t there during the cooling season with air conditioners. For example, there are no air conditioners that run on natural gas, so safety isn’t really an issue that ever comes up when working out a problem. For heaters like furnaces, safety always needs to be on your mind.
What’s the first thing you picture when you take a whiff of clean, crisp, fresh air? Do you picture a beautiful meadow in spring? Or perhaps you picture a snowscape in the middle of the winter where the air feels calming and almost crunchy? Regardless of what you picture in your head, we want to add your home to the list. That’s right, your living room could have the freshest air imaginable, as long as you have the right air purification system for it.
