If it’s almost time for a new furnace, it’s best to be well-informed before making a final decision about which type of heater will go in your home. Too often, people are willing to let contractors make that choice for them, and give little input themselves into what type of system they would prefer and what they would like to pay in the long term.
We think it’s important to go over all of your options before installing that new heating system. This includes deciding whether you would like a furnace powered by natural gas or electricity. We compare the two fuel sources in today’s guide.
You take a lot of time picking out a new home, a new vehicle, or even a new book to read or TV show to watch. That’s because these are things you care about and pay a lot of attention to. Picking out a new water heater, though, may be a task you don’t want to put much effort into. It seems like all water heaters would be the same, but this simply isn’t the case.
It’s a pain to have to call in a technician when a heating system stops working. It’s even worse when this happens during a storm or in the middle of the coldest night. However, this is when problems are most likely to occur—when heating equipment is working the hardest. If this has ever happened too you, you know you want to avoid calling for emergency repairs at all costs.
