Frequently Asked Questions

How Does a Furnace Work?

Heat is generated in the furnace’s burner with the aid of burning natural gas or propane. The heat generated goes through a heat exchanger, increasing the temperature. The exhaust fumes are then emitted via the flue gas vent. At this juncture, the blower fan forces the warmed air over the heat exchanger, moving it throughout your home. Your furnace operates until the thermostat catches the correct temperature and disengages the furnace. Modern furnaces employ a draft inducer fan to tire the emissions. Moreover, this force draft also enhances efficiency.

Aim to change your furnace filter at least once every 90 days. This frequency is important; filters have dirty jobs – gathering airborne hair, dust, and other minuscule particles to prevent harm to your furnace’s parts. If your filter becomes too gunk-filled, airflow is restricted, and as a result, its effectiveness is compromised.

On average, installing a new furnace can take between four to six hours. However, this timeframe can increase based on your furnace’s size, the space of your home, and, of course, your furnace’s make.

Many factors could play into the necessity for a new home furnace. However, some of the most revealing signs are as follows:

  • You have an aged unit (15 years or older)
  • Unevenly heated rooms
  • Humidity issues in your home
  • Energy bills are on the rise
  • Your furnace becomes unusually loud (buzzes, hums, rattles, etc.)
  • Your unit has difficulty starting
  • Abnormal or even foul smells emanating from your furnace

A few considerations must be taken into account with furnace installation. These include:

  1. Type of furnace: Do you want a single, two-stage, or multi-stage heat furnace? Each variation comes at varying price points regarding labour and installation costs. Deciding which one best suits your needs and budget are essential.
  2. The correct system: Do you want a gas, electric or propane system? Your choice for this consideration depends on your values and preferences.
  3. The right size: An accurately sized system is crucial for general home comfort. Selecting a unit too big or small could impact temperature levels and your unit’s efficiency. So before installation, consider variables such as your home’s square footage, window and wall insulation quality, and the height of the ceiling.

A successful furnace installation will include all the steps necessary to ensure your unit is installed safely and properly the first time. This process includes:

  • Venting
  • Site prep
  • Gas and electrical connections
  • Positioning and installing the new furnace
  • Inspecting flue pipe clearances
  • Testing gas and electrical systems of the furnace
