Heating System Replacement

Texas has a reputation for dry, hot air. But real Texans know that the winters can be brutal with low temps and high windchill. That’s why it’s important to have a working heating system in any Texas home. But with so many options to choose from, it can be hard to decide what heating system would be best for your home. The Air Repair Pros understand that choosing a heating system is a big investment. Whether you need a heating system tune-up or a full furnace installation, we will work with you to choose a heating system that works with your house as well as your budget. Read on to learn more about different kinds of heating systems and how they function.

Different Kinds Of Heating Systems

Many people do not think about their heating system until it stops working, and even fewer know that there are different kinds of heating systems and furnaces. Furnaces are separated into categories based on the fuel they use to produce heat. With so many options, it can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. Let the Air Repair Pros help you find the heating system that works best for you!

Natural Gas

Natural Gas is the most common type of heating system found in modern American homes. And for a good reason– natural gas furnaces are efficient, heat quickly, and use inexpensive fuel. However, they do have some downsides– they produce a large amount of CO2, which has a devastating impact on the environment. They also require ductwork throughout your home, which can be expensive to install and maintain, but is required for most heating systems.

Oil Furnace

Oil Furnaces are quickly becoming a thing of the past due to the high price of oil. However, if you have an older home, you may have one. Owners of an oil heating system should consider replacement– obsolete furnaces often cost more in repairs than they are worth and are very difficult to find replacement parts for.

Electric Furnace

Do not let the upfront cost deceive you– electric furnaces may be the least expensive to purchase and install, but they are often the most costly to run. They also take a longer time to heat up the space, which may not pose a problem for a house in a warmer climate. Electric furnaces are also easy and relatively inexpensive to maintain, so if your heating needs are low, an electric heating system may be a good option for your home.

Propane Furnace

Propane furnaces are typically found in places where other fuels are difficult to find or overly expensive, such as homes that are so rural it would be difficult to bring in other fuel. Propane furnaces tend to be small and used in compact homes. If you are interested in the option of a propane furnace, ask your Air Repair Pro technician about a conversion kit for a Natural Gas Furnace, which would convert it to run on propane if necessary.

Geothermal and Solar Furnaces

The future is now! Geothermal and Solar Furnaces use no fossil fuels and are easily the most environmentally-friendly option. Geothermal uses energy from the earth, while solar furnaces harness the energy of the sun. Due to their newness, they are most expensive to install upfront. However, they are very inexpensive to run, allowing you to recoup your losses over the life of the heating system.

Mini-Split Systems

Ideal for small spaces like cabins and additions,  a mini-split system provides heating and cooling in one appliance. The appliance is bolted directly to the wall with no ductwork required. Price ranges on appliance newness, size and capacity.

How Much Does A Heating System Replacement Cost?

The cost of a heating system replacement varies based on what heating system you choose. Less expensive options would be natural gas and electric, which cost more over time. More expensive would be geothermal and solar, which cost less to run but have a higher up-front cost. You also have to factor in the costs of possible ductwork in your home, as well as the removal and disposal of any old heating appliance. There could also be permitting and building costs.
