When you’re looking to make a significant investment in indoor comfort, a new furnace or heat pump is a great option. While the quality of the equipment is important, the quality of the installation has a major impact on overall performance and the cost efficiency of the unit. Allow G & G Comfort to help you by guiding you through every stage of the equipment selection and installation.

Furnaces

Forced air furnaces are designed to provide a great flow of warm air flow for your home and a more consistent temperature. There are a few different features that you can get with a forced air furnace:

Modulating or Two Stage Gas Valve with Variable Speed Blower (This is the most efficient set up in a gas furnace that is available. This is also where the utility company and federal government offers rebates or credits.

80% efficient (Typically what you will find if a system is located in the attic)

90%-98% efficient (Can be installed in an attic but steps will need to be taken to keep the furnace drain line from freezing in the winter since the furnace does produce water. Typically found in garages, closets and crawl spaces.)

The percentages represent how much heat is produced when you spend one dollar with the utility company. This does not reflect how much is delivered into your home. This is why delivered efficiency is so important.

Heat Pumps

Heat pumps operate similarly to an air conditioner. These systems have parts that will allow refrigerant to flow a different route through the system. This allows for heating and cooling to come from a single unit.

You should also be aware of limitations for heat pumps in colder climates. The efficiency of thermal transfer decreases when the outside temperature falls. This means that heat pumps are not usually installed in areas that experience sub-freezing temperatures. The good news is, air handlers can be equipped with an electric heat strip that will provide supplemental heating when the temperature is less than 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Typically, heat pumps are a very viable option for our customers in Goodlettsville and surrounding areas.

Heating Repairs

Heating and cooling systems are the most important, and expensive piece of equipment in your home and they probably consume the most amount of energy!
