This is the time of year to make an upgrade to your heating system: you want that new furnace in place before the coldest weather of winter arrives. And when we use the word upgrade, we’re serious! Instead of simply thinking of replacing your old furnace, go with installing a new high-efficiency furnace. New high-efficiency furnaces can consume 30% less fuel compared to older models. Installing one of these energy-saving heating systems is an excellent investment for a number of reasons.
The Benefits of a High-Efficiency Furnace
November 21st, 2016Is It Too Late to Have a New Furnace Installed?
November 15th, 2016Now that it’s November, the temperatures in the Central Valley are dropping down into the 50s, with some occasional swings up into the 60s and 70s. But the climate is definitely tilting toward the winter, which will be here before we know it.
Will the winter be here too soon for you to replace that old furnace in your home? If you have serious doubts about how your furnace will perform during the winter because of its age (older than 15 or 20 years) or because it experienced numerous problems during the previous winter, you might think that it’s a bit late in the season to make a major change. So maybe… maybe the furnace will be fine for another winter?

Sign Up for Our Maintenance Program This Fall!
October 17th, 2016
Now that it’s October, we can expect the weather to begin to cool down. The true winter weather is still a ways off, but now is the time to start getting ready for its arrival. There are many winter preparation tasks you can do around the house (such as putting in weather stripping), but perhaps the most important is to schedule professional maintenance for your furnace or other home heating system.
The simplest way to manage professional maintenance is to sign up for our Ultimate Service Agreement (USA). This takes care of both your heating and air conditioning maintenance during the year. When you sign up now, you’ll have the maintenance inspection and tune-up for your heater done in plenty of time for winter.
Take Advantage of the HERO Program to Prepare for Winter Heating
October 17th, 2016There’s still time to make upgrades to your home heating in time for the arrival of winter weather. For example, if you have an old furnace that costs more and more to run each season, arrange to have a high-efficiency furnace installed to replace it. Or you might consider having an entirely new type of heating system put in. On a smaller scale, updating from an old thermostat to a new “smart” thermostat can also make a significant difference in your house.
Our trained technicians are here to take care of the improvements for your home that will help you enjoy both comfort and energy savings. And since we’re a HERO Program-registered contractor, we can make these upgrades and installments more affordable than ever.
