What Is A Hybrid Heat Dual Fuel System?

With a traditional heating and cooling system, if you wanted to save more, you had to use less. But a Hybrid Heat system combines the benefits of intelligent control for both gas and electric heating to create an intuitive system that can actually react to changing conditions.No matter what the temperature is outside, a Hybrid Heat system will automatically select the fuel source most efficient for your home, which means you’ll stay warm in the winter, cool in the summer and save money all year long.To design a Hybrid Heat system for your home, we professionally match one of our heat pump units with a natural gas furnace. Contact us to see how much energy you can save over your existing system.

Heat pumps are a great solution for your home comfort system because they work to provide both heating and cooling. Heat pumps have SEER ratings like air conditioners and Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) ratings for measuring heating efficiency. Higher SEER and HSPF ratings mean greater energy savings.Heat pumps are a very efficient alternative to electric heat. A heat pump works the same as an air conditioner in the summer, but it runs in reverse in the winter to heat your home. The system will be matched with a backup heating source, most often electric heat for those extremely cold days of winter.

How Can I Reduce My Energy Costs For Heating?

Upgrade to a high-efficiency furnace — New high-efficiency furnaces use up to 50% less fuel than an older system. It can save you up to 25 percent of your home-heating costs in one year, and within a few years, you’ll have recovered the initial cost of replacing/upgrading your furnace. Choosing a model with an energy efficient motor can save 20 to 50 percent of the energy needed to continuously operate a fan motor. Let us show you the advantages of replacing your old furnace today.Have an annual maintenance performed — Having an annual maintenance performed on your furnace by a licensed technician will help ensure it operates at its peak efficiency and catches any potential breakdowns before they occur.Install a programmable thermostat — A programmable thermostat enables you to control your home’s temperature when you’re away or asleep. For every 1° you lower your thermostat for seven hours per day, you save one percent on your heating bill.Don’t block vents in well-used rooms — Keep your supply and return air vents free of objects like blinds, carpets or furniture so your furnace can operate efficiently and there is even heat distribution.Install ceiling fans — Change the direction of airflow on your ceiling fans. In the winter, the blades should operate in a clockwise direction helping to push the warm air from the ceiling down into the room.

Should I Have My Furnace And Air Conditioner Serviced Every Year?

Yes. Keeping your system properly maintained will lower energy and repair costs, prevent breakdowns, and prolong the life of your equipment. Neglecting necessary maintenance ensures a steady decline in air conditioning performance while energy use steadily increases.

FAQs

How long does it take to install a new gas furnace?

Installing a new gas furnace typically takes between four to eight hours. However, the exact time can vary based on factors like the furnace’s location, the complexity of the installation, and any additional work needed.

When is a broken heater an emergency?

A broken heater should be an emergency in several situations. Exposure to the cold can lead to health concerns like hypothermia when temperatures plummet. An unusual smell, especially of gas or something burning, might point to a grave safety risk. Loud noises, such as bangs or screeching, can be a red flag of significant malfunction. Furthermore, a complete heater failure during chilly weather can have serious repercussions, especially in homes housing older people, children, or those with specific medical conditions, as they rely on consistent warmth.

When is the best time to get my furnace tuned up?

The best time to get your furnace tuned up is early fall before the cold weather sets in. This ensures your system is in peak condition for the winter months, optimizing efficiency and preventing potential breakdowns during periods of heavy use.
