For all your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) needs, you can rely on the Alpha Plumbing & HVAC team to keep your equipment running at peak efficiency.
Furnace Installation
Most furnaces run on natural gas because it is readily available and tends to be the most cost-effective choice. However, oil and electricity are also viable options. Properly sizing your furnace is essential to ensure efficient heating without unnecessary energy consumption. Our experts will calculate your home’s square footage and evaluate insulation levels in each room to determine the appropriate furnace size for your specific needs.
Additionally, it’s important to consider the annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) rating of your furnace. A furnace with a 95 percent AFUE rating can convert 95 percent of the energy it consumes into heat. Higher AFUE ratings translate to greater energy savings on your utility bills. Keep in mind that well-maintained air ducts and properly sealed windows and doors are crucial factors in achieving energy efficiency.
