How Do You Buy A Heating Furnace?
In the course of owning a home, there may come a time when you need or want to replace your heating furnace. Since furnaces typically last a long time, and improvements are being made all the time, buying a new furnace is not as easy as running out and purchasing the same size and model you currently own. By doing a little research, you can select a new furnace that will heat your home more efficiently than your old one for years to come. Step 1 Determine the heating needs of your home. The best way to do this it to have a qualified HVAC professional do a heat loss evaluation, which calculates the size of furnace you need by taking into account the size of your home and the quality of insulation of your doors, windows and walls. There are online heat loss calculators that will give you a rough estimate, but it’s always best to have one done by a professional. Step 2 Decide which fuel you would like. Just because your home currently has a gas furnace doesn’t mean you need to replace it
