The Difference a High Efficiency Furnace Can Make, blog, energy audit, tom rostron

March 3, 2017

Winter isn’t exactly the easiest time of year for homeowners in Wall Township, Toms River, Belmar and surrounding towns. It’s a part of life, however, and one that is best to work with rather than against. This latter sentiment is especially important to understand if you live in an older home with outdated HVAC equipment, as the difference a new, high-efficiency furnace can make is like night and day.

Looking to learn about the benefits of upgrading to a new, high-efficiency furnace? Tom Rostron is ready to help.

Enhanced Comfort Control

Let’s face it—a cold home is an uncomfortable home. Yet, it’s the norm for many New Jersey residents, and the problem can often be traced to a furnace that simply cannot get the job done effectively.

Modern furnaces make use of a number of improvements over old units, such as variable-speed technology and modulating gas valves among other enhancements. This means that they heat evenly, resulting in maintained warm temperatures that are supported by consistent airflow.

If you’re tired of living in an uncomfortable home, the answer can likely be found in a new, high-efficiency furnace.

Programmability

There’s no such thing as a “one size fits all” approach to heating a home in the wintertime, as every home and family that dwells inside it is unique. This is one of the many reasons why programmable thermostats have become so popular, as they offer an unprecedented degree of control.

These types of thermostats allow you to set the temperature differently in “zones” throughout your home, which can make it much easier to create a consistently comfortable environment. Add to this the savings associated with programming your thermostat before leaving for the day, and upgrading becomes a no-brainer.

Better Indoor Air Quality

The quality of your indoor air is nothing to mess around with, yet so many people allow it to go overlooked. Old, dirty furnaces do nothing positive for indoor air quality, and they can often contribute to problems if you’re not careful.

At worst, an old furnace may allow carbon monoxide to escape, which can be deadly in large concentrations. A new, high-efficiency furnace will lead to better indoor air quality and a more comfortable home environment for you and your family.

Savings

Aside from these benefits, one of the most compelling reasons to move in the direction of a high-efficiency furnace is to save money! New furnaces are far more conservative than their older counterparts, thus ensuring reduced energy bills without affecting comfort levels. In the end, you’ll be saving money while living in a much more comfortable home if you decide to make the jump.
