Choosing A Great Furnace

Choosing a furnace is both an easy and a daunting task. But ICE got you covered, we bring you the following points go for best brand of furnaces.

Which Unit Is Appropriate For Your Space?

The furnace replacement is a made-to-measure kind of business. You can’t just buy one off the shelf or online. The technician needs to measure the space available for installation. But that’s not all. They’ll also factor in how well insulated your home is, and how much you’ll use your system.

Check The Energy Efficiency Rating

The rating to look for is from the CEE (Consortium for Energy Efficiency) or Energy Star. Both are impartial and trustworthy. And an energy efficient heating system could save you big bucks over the years.

When you check which models have a good energy rating you’ll also be able to see what the popular brands are.

Choose A Leading Brand

We don’t recommend one particular brand because there are a number of very good ones.

Right now, top performing brands include Lennox and Trane for furnaces.

Consider Fuel Sources

What does your current system run on? Are you happy with it?

Gas is the most popular because it’s the easiest, and cheapest to run. Electric is clean and inexpensive to install, but more expensive to run.

Look For An Excellent Filter

Air quality’s big news these days and it’s a serious health issue. If anyone in your household has allergies or respiratory problems then you need a good filter.

So we recommend getting a furnace with an electrostatic filter. It will also save the maintenance guys some time when they come over for furnace duct cleaning.
