Gas vs. Electric Furnace: Pros and Cons of Each
Furnaces have used many types of energy and fuel throughout their history, starting with wood and coal. Today, most furnaces either use natural gas or electricity. The two types have their own pros and cons.
- Gas Furnaces: Pros include high heating power and a lower cost to run. Cons include a more expensive upfront price and some possibilities of safety hazards if the unit is not properly maintained.
- Electric Furnaces: Pros include a lower upfront installation cost and longer service life. Cons include slower time to heat a house and often higher operating costs.
How to Choose the Best Furnace for Your Home’s Heating Needs
What type of furnace is right for your home? It depends on several factors. If your home doesn’t have a natural gas line, then you’ll want an electric furnace. If you have a natural gas line, we usually recommend going with a gas furnace because of their powerful heating and energy-saving capabilities.
However, we strongly recommend you always work with professionals when it comes to making any choice about installing a heater. Not only will pros like ours help you balance out the pros and cons of the type of furnace, they’ll know the proper size of furnace to install that will provide the necessary comfort for your house without wasting power.
Common Furnace Repair Issues
Modern furnaces are extremely durable. However, no manufacturer has yet built a furnace that will never fail. You may expect to run into occasional furnace issues. Affordable Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. is ready to come to your assistance for any of these common furnace troubles:
- Broken ignition system
- Burners that won’t stay lit
- Delayed ignition
- Failed sequences or failed control board
- Inadequate ventilation
- Gas flow issues
- The limit switch keeps shutting the furnace off
- The furnace trips the circuit breaker
Even if a problem seems "minor," don’t ignore it. The issue may be only a surface symptom of a much bigger problem. The sooner you call for our technicians, the easier the problem will be to fix and the safer your furnace will run.
