Gas Furnaces

one of the most common fuels which are used to heat residential buildings is natural gas. Should you live where there is natural gas available, you will have a meter outside your home. This meter is connected to your furnace and then it uses that fuel to make the heat. The heat that gas is able to produce is a very economical way to warm your home. It also heats the house up quickly and is generally very clean-burning. Gas heat is extremely popular for warming residential buildings due to the fact that it is inexpensive and dependable.

A gas furnace uses a blower in order to circulate the warm air throughout the house utilizing your air ducts. If you do not have access to natural gas, then you can substitute it for propane. The main difference will be that the propane tank will be outside of your home. Remember - if you use a gas furnace, it is imperative that you have a carbon monoxide detector in your home.

Electric Furnaces

An electric furnace is different in the respect that it will give you a constant heat. There is no flame when you use an electric furnace, but rather you have a heat pump or use a forced air system. Heating pumps are much smaller than a furnace, and they work the same way that an air conditioner works (but in reverse). This is perfect for small houses, apartments and condos because the space to be warmed isn't large. Big houses can benefit because they give off more heat than a simple heat pump would. A great benefit of an electric furnace is the increased safety due to a lack of fire or carbon monoxide risk.

Every year before and after the winter, it is crucial to have your system checked for leaks. Remember to always change your filters every 4-6 weeks!
