Professional Installations
At AC by Luquire, you can count on us for a professional installation. We can install any heating system, including furnaces. We will make sure that your new furnace and ductwork are properly matched, and the system is properly sized. In order for the new furnace provide adequate heat, the amount of British Thermal Units (BTU's) required by the home needs to be determined. As pros in the industry, our technicians will always to a heat load calculation to determine the size unit required. Unlike other HVAC contractors, we don't go by the size of your existing system. The existing system may be improperly sized or new insulation and rooms may have been added.
We always do a current heat load calculation before any new furnace installation. This will ensure that the new furnace is not undersized or oversized. Undersized furnaces cannot adequately warm a home, and oversized furnaces are not energy efficient. During a heat load calculation, our technicians will measure each room and take an account of all the windows in the home. Other factors taken into considerations include the region's climate, type of insulation and the amount of residents living in the home.
Energy Efficient Furnaces
The energy efficiency of furnaces is measured by the Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratio. Federal regulations mandate a minimum of 78 percent AFUE for manufacturers. Today, there are energy efficient furnaces on the market with up to 98.5 percent AFUE. As of May 3013, the Department of Energy will require that all new furnace installations have a minimum 90 percent AFUE.
We carry a large product line of energy efficient furnaces with AFUE of 90 percent and above. Although the higher AFUE furnaces are more expensive, these energy efficient heating systems can save you up to 40 percent in energy bills. Most people recoup the upfront costs within just several years in energy savings. In addition, there are utility company, manufacturer, federal, state and local programs that offer tax credits and rebates on the higher efficiency furnaces.
