Chances are good that you’ve spent the greater part of your life inside homes that were heated using a furnace. Furnaces have always been popular choices for home heating, and they’ve been around for a long time. Over the years, they have become more effective and efficient than ever before. The basic concept of how furnaces operate has stayed the same, but many components have undergone modifications over the years to produce the models that now warm our homes, schools, and businesses. Here are a few more reasons why we think furnaces are good option for your New Hampshire heating.

The Benefits of Furnaces
- Flexibility: Furnaces come in an astonishing variety of models and types. They can be sized to fit almost any home, and they can use many different fuel sources (with natural gas, electricity, propane, and oil). It’s rare that an installer can’t find a furnace type that will supply a home with just what it needs to keep warm through to spring.
- Efficiency: Once upon a time, furnaces were energy-drainers, wasting a lot of their fuel as they converted it to heat. But those days are far in the past—most current furnaces earn the U.S. Energy Star label for their high AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) ratings and are competitive with other heating systems. Gas furnaces are especially efficient at converting most of their fuel into heat.
- Effectiveness: Unlike the popular heat pump, which can suffer a drop in heating effectiveness during extreme cold temperatures, furnaces can provide powerful heating no matter the temperature outside.
Should You Install a Furnace?
That was our pitch for furnaces. But now we have to temper it: a furnace might not be the best choice for your home. There are many individual factors to consider when you start looking for a heating system to install. If a furnace is a good choice, you still have to decide the kind and size to have installed.
