Your Heating Experts

Winters in Wichita Falls, TX are cold and damp, and a fuel efficient furnace or heat pump creates a warm and comfortable indoor environment on chilly nights. Since a heating appliance represents a significant investment in advanced HVAC technology, it is important to choose a heating contractor who has a complete understanding of system design, maintenance and repair.

 

Choosing a Heating Appliance

Consumer choice in heating appliances is often determined by fuel availability, local climate conditions and energy costs. Homeowners living in areas that experience severe winters usually install a forced air furnace. In mild climates, heat pumps are a viable alternative, especially in areas without natural gas infrastructure.

The measurement of a furnace’s efficiency is based primarily on its AFUE rating, which was developed by AHRAE to provide consumers with a meaningful way of comparing different brands and models of furnaces. A furnace with an AFUE rating of 80 exhausts 20 percent of the fuel it consumes in the form of waste gas. Higher efficiency furnaces are more cost effective in areas with extreme winter temperatures.

Heat pumps operate on the same basic principle as air conditioners, but they include a reversing valve to change the flow of refrigerant when the unit is in the heating mode. Heat Pump efficiency is determined by the HSPF rating, which is calculated by dividing the total BTU heat output by the total electric power consumed. A modern heat pump with an HSPF rating of 9.0 can save up to 30 percent when compared to a model installed in the early 2000s with a 6.8 HSPF rating.

Local utility costs vary and can change substantially over time. Our comfort specialists can help determine whether a heat pump or furnace is your most cost-effective heating solution.

 

The Installation Process

Quality heating contractors provide their customers with products designed to meet the exact load demands of the home or office the system will serve. A unit that is oversized can result in drafts, distracting noise and stale air movement. An undersized unit may not have sufficient capacity to keep the indoor environment comfortable.

Once the heating appliance has been selected, our factory trained and NATE certified technicians will install the equipment with minimal disruption to the customer’s daily routine. Every system is tested and verified so that it performs to the manufacturer’s published specifications.
