Buying a New Furnace? Here's What You Need to Know

As we approach the fall season, it's time to start thinking about your heating system. If your current furnace is outdated, constantly arising with issues, and you think it's time to upgrade your system, we'll be sharing what you need to know when purchasing a new furnace.

Type of Furnace
There are three types of furnaces to choose from when in the market for a new one: single-stage, two-stage, and modulating furnaces. Single-stage furnaces are the most affordable option. When your home calls for heat, the furnace is signaled to run its cycle until it reaches the desired set temperature. Two-stage furnaces allow the burner to run at two different stages. This type of furnace has a longer heating cycle and is best known for its quiet functionality and high efficiency. Modulating furnaces are known to manage the temperature within your home very precisely due to their consistent flow. The best way to determine which type of furnace is best for your needs is to inquire with an HVAC specialist.

Efficiency Ratings
When purchasing a furnace in today's day and age, you'll benefit from the great efficiency options offered by top furnace manufacturers. At Maple Air Heating and Cooling, we carry furnaces from the industry leader, Carrier. Every furnace offers its own unique performance features, including efficiency ratings. The AFUE, or annual fuel utilization efficiency rating, is the measuring system for furnace energy efficiency. If you're looking for a high-efficiency furnace, look for a rating between 90% to 98.5%. At Maple Air, all of our furnace AFUE ratings are readily available on our website. Even better, we only offer high-efficiency furnaces. Take a browse through our furnacee page.

Appropriate Size
A 1500-square-foot home will require a different sized furnace than a 5000-square-foot home. Purchasing a furnace that is too large or too small for your space will lead to loads of headaches, including but not limited to: increased energy costs, an array of mechanical breakdowns, and uneven heating capabilities. A furnace is a great investment, and we can help ensure you purchase the right one for your house. We recommend scheduling a consultation with a certified HVAC technician to help you determine the best furnace for your space.

Warranty
With any high-priced system, it's important to know your warranty span and details. Certain manufacturers have requirements to upkeep the warranty's validity. For instance, in order to be eligible, they may require you have annual maintenance performed on your furnace. Make sure you understand the warranty details to avoid any confusion down the line.
