Types of Furnaces to Install in Your Home

There are three main furnace types, and Dauenhauer’s expert technicians know how to install all of them. Our technicians will inspect your home before recommending a type, paying attention to which model would bring you the best results at the highest cost efficiency. 

Gas Furnace

A gas furnace runs either on propane or natural gas. Gas furnaces typically have lower costs than other furnace types, but they have just as much heating capability. High energy efficiency is another plus associated with gas furnaces. 

Electric Furnace

Electric furnaces are easy to operate and install. They are also good for the environment, properly heating your home without burning fuel. In the past 10 years, electric furnaces have become an increasingly popular choice among homeowners. 

Oil Furnace

Oil furnaces are less common than gas or electric furnaces, but they are widely used in areas without natural gas. Even though oil furnaces are less popular than they once were, Dauenhauer’s HVAC experts are still trained to install and service them. 

Furnace Installation and Replacement

If your furnace is outdated, it may be time for a replacement, and here’s why:

  • An old furnace’s efficiency typically sits in the 56-70% range, whereas a modern furnace installed by Dauenhauer can have up to 98.5% efficiency. A more efficient furnace will significantly lower your energy bills and heat your home more evenly. 
  • Older furnaces likely make more jarring noises than a new furnace would, and this is because a newer model will run smoother and encounter fewer operational issues. 
  • Older furnaces are more prone to random shutdowns than newer furnaces. A malfunctioning, older furnace can be disastrous during winter storms. 

The choice to install a new furnace is not an easy one, which is why the expert HVAC technicians at Dauenhauer can walk you through every step of the process. We know that selecting the right heating unit for your home can be the difference between cozy winters and frigid ones, and we understand that price is always a huge consideration. We will work with you to choose the best furnace for your needs, being fully upfront about the pros, cons, and costs throughout the entire process. 

You are trusting us with your home, your comfort, and your finances—the least we can do is give you full transparency, thorough inspections, and expert servicing. If you are interested in electric or gas furnace installation/replacement from the professionals at Dauenhauer, contact us today. 

Furnace Repair Service

A broken furnace can seriously disrupt your daily routine, especially in winter. If your heating can’t fight back against freezing temperatures, it may be time to call Dauenhauer. When you call Dauenhauer, you won’t have to wait long—with our 24/7 emergency service, we can make any fix at any time of day. 

When to Call a Professional for Furnace Repair

Dauenhauer’s quick response times and thorough repairs will prevent chattering teeth and frozen feet for the foreseeable future. Give us a call, and we’ll be there as soon as possible. But how do you know if your furnace needs repair? Let’s look at some signs your furnace needs to be tuned up: 

  • Consistently high energy bills
  • Rattling, clanking, and clicking noises
  • Inconsistent heating throughout your home
  • Flickering pilot light

If you notice any of these issues, contact an HVAC professional immediately. Catching a furnace malfunction early can be the difference between making a small fix and dealing with a full furnace shutdown.

Furnace Preventative Maintenance & Tune-Ups

The best way to prevent a full furnace shutdown is to schedule routine furnace maintenance. Regular preventative maintenance will extend your furnace’s lifespan, and it has numerous additional benefits, including:

  • Higher energy efficiency
  • Lower energy bills
  • Fewer unexpected breakdowns
  • Early detection of potentially catastrophic issues
  • Improved air quality
  • Even heat dispersion throughout your home

During a furnace tune-up, one of Dauenhauer’s HVAC experts will inspect every aspect of your system, making repairs, cleaning filters, and clearing blockages as necessary. Our maintenance checklist is extensive, leaving no stone unturned. 

To save even more money through annual maintenance, consider joining Dauenhauer’s VIP maintenance program. This program includes yearly checkups, priority scheduling, repair discounts, and three-year guarantees.
