Why Consider Installing a Gas Furnace?
So why are gas furnaces so popular?
- Natural gas heats quickly: In fact, natural gas can reach a temperature of 130 degrees in just a few minutes, so this means that a gas furnace can heat your home rapidly.
- Natural gas is clean and efficient: Gas is the cleanest burning of fossil fuel, so it has less of an impact on the environment as compared to oil or coal. Gas furnaces can be very highly efficient, with some having AFUE ratings as high as 98%.
- Natural gas is convenient: Once you have natural gas piped into your home, a number of other appliances can use the gas as well, including water heaters and clothes dryers.
However, natural gas is highly regulated, and using any kind of natural gas appliance, including a gas furnace, requires the help of trained and certified experts who know the codes and how to safely install, repair, and operate these appliances.
