A modern furnace replacement in Joliet is an opportunity to reassess your needs. Your home has probably changed as you’ve improved it over the years. The science of load calculations has also evolved, resulting in more accurate sizing.
Our load calculation will take into account your home’s square footage, floor plan, and ceiling heights. We’ll also factor in the building envelope, such as the insulation. Our installer will also consider your location, such as how much direct sunlight you get.
That calculation will provide us with the heating output your home requires. You’ll then be able to explore the systems that meet that requirement. For fuel-burning furnaces, which are prevalent in our area, annual fuel utilization efficiency is an important consideration. The higher the furnace’s AFUE rating, the more efficiently it burns fuel.
The gas models available for your furnace installation have a minimum AFUE rating of 80. Mid-efficiency systems range up to 89. High-efficiency furnaces have an AFUE rating of 90 or higher. A model with a higher rating will be more expensive upfront but cheaper to run. Whether it’s worth it depends on the added initial costs versus the long-term savings.
A furnace has several components that make it a high-efficiency model. Some have a condensing system that can extract heat from the exhaust gases before venting them. Systems can also modulate fuel intake or fan speed.
There are many excellent reasons to replace your old furnace with a modern system:
Faster heating
Lower heating costs
Improved air quality
Quieter and safer operation
Reduced energy consumption
