Gas vs. Electric Furnaces: What’s the Difference?
Gas furnaces are the most common type in New England homes because they heat quickly, operate efficiently, and often cost less to run where natural gas is available. They burn fuel to create heat, which is then distributed through ductwork to warm the entire home.
Electric furnaces, on the other hand, use electric heating elements instead of combustion. While they may have higher operating costs in some areas, they’re typically more affordable to install, require less space, and can last longer with proper care since they have fewer mechanical parts.
Both options provide reliable comfort, but the right furnace for your home depends on factors such as fuel availability, installation costs, and your long-term energy goals. Our team can help you decide which system best fits your needs.
Furnace Installation and Replacement
When your old furnace can no longer keep up or is driving up utility bills, it may be time for a replacement. Modern furnaces are significantly more efficient, with gas models reaching AFUE ratings of 90% and higher, and electric furnaces designed to deliver consistent, safe heat. Our installation process includes:
- A thorough evaluation of your home’s size, insulation, and heating needs
- Recommendations for systems that match your comfort and budget
- Safe, professional installation with attention to every detail
- Testing and calibration to ensure maximum efficiency
With Valley Air Conditioning & Heating, LLC, you’ll receive a properly sized, expertly installed furnace that provides reliable comfort for years to come.
Furnace Repairs and Maintenance
Even a well-installed furnace may eventually need repairs. Warning signs include strange noises, frequent cycling, uneven heating, or rising energy bills. Our technicians are trained to diagnose and fix problems quickly, working on all makes and models of gas and electric furnaces.
Regular maintenance is just as important. A yearly tune-up helps prevent breakdowns, improves efficiency, and keeps your furnace running safely. During service, we:
- Inspect burners, heating elements, and ignition systems
- Clean filters, blowers, and key components
- Check safety controls and electrical connections
- Calibrate the thermostat for accurate performance
By staying ahead with repairs and maintenance, you’ll extend the life of your furnace while reducing energy costs and avoiding unexpected emergencies.
