Furnace Efficiency & Installation
Furnace efficiency is measured in something called Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE). This rating measures how efficiently the furnace converts fuel energy to heat over a typical year. All furnaces have a rating so consumers can easily compare. An AFUE of 90%, for example, means that 90% of the energy used becomes usable heat and the remaining 10% escapes. An outdated system might have an AFUE of 55-70%. A mid-efficiency system can have around 80% AFUE and a high-efficiency system can range from 90-98%. The right level of efficiency for you depends on many factors, such as:
- Upfront budget
- Ongoing budget for utility expenses
- How long you're planning on staying in your home
- Location of furnace within the home
If you're not sure of the best efficiency for your home, contact our experts for an assessment of your needs.
When you need a new furnace, you want to feel confident in your decision. That's where we come in! The Heating Specialist team prides itself on providing you with the information you need to make the right decision for your home and family. We offer a selection of top brands including Daikin and Ruud, as well as models with different Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratings to meet your needs.
