Choosing Between Electric and Gas Furnaces: What You Need to Know

With today’s gas and electric furnaces being very energy-efficient, some homeowners may have trouble deciding which type is best for their home. This is where our professionals come in and help assess with you so that you can make the best decision.

Some reasons homeowners choose an electric furnace are that natural gas or other fuels are not readily available in their homes, and others simply want to reduce their carbon footprint by using a heating system that does not require the use of a fossil fuel. For others, the very high AFUE rating, which can be as high as 100% with an electric furnace, is the main draw, while others appreciate the lower initial costs.

When it comes to a gas furnace, many homeowners already have gas piped into their homes for other appliances, so the choice is a natural one. Gas is the cleanest–burning fossil fuel and tends to be fairly priced, so these factors certainly are part of some people’s decision. Some of today’s gas furnaces have AFUE ratings as high as 98%, making them incredibly efficient, which also figures into a homeowner’s decision.

There are a number of factors to review when choosing a furnace for your home, and our Portland heater repair professionals are here for every step of the way!
