Frequently Asked Questions
How do I decide between a high-efficiency gas furnace and a dual-fuel hybrid system for my home?
We evaluate your home’s existing energy sources and insulation levels to determine which system offers the best return on investment. A hybrid system is often ideal for East Texas because it uses an electric heat pump during mild weather and only switches to gas during extreme cold, significantly lowering your annual fuel consumption.
Will my existing ductwork be able to handle the airflow requirements of a new, modern heating system?
Newer high-efficiency systems often require more precise airflow than older units, so we perform a static pressure test on your existing ducts during the replacement process. If we find restrictions or leaks, we can perform targeted modifications to ensure your new heater operates at its rated efficiency without overworking the blower motor.
What is involved in "sizing" my new heater, and why is it different than just matching my old unit?
Instead of just looking at the BTU rating of your old unit, we perform a Manual J load calculation that accounts for your home’s window orientation, ceiling heights, and insulation values. This ensures we don’t install an oversized system, which would “short-cycle” and lead to uneven temperatures and premature mechanical wear.
How do you ensure my home remains safe from carbon monoxide after a new gas furnace installation?
Beyond the unit’s built-in safety switches, we verify the integrity of the entire venting system and conduct a draft test to ensure combustion gases are properly exiting the home. We also calibrate the gas pressure to manufacturer specifications to ensure clean, complete combustion that minimizes the risk of CO production.
