Your furnace keeps your home toasty and comfortable during even the coldest winter months, heating the air and distributing it using a blower system and ducts. Furnaces are the most common heating system available due to their effectiveness and energy efficiency. Metro Services HVAC can help you install a new furnace system or service your existing equipment for optimal operation.

Why Use a Furnace for Heating?
A furnace is a popular heating system for a reason. Here are a few benefits of having a furnace system:
- Fast air distribution: With a blower system and vents in every room, your house will heat up quickly.
- Affordability: While initial installation costs might be high, the cheap fuel and long life span save you money long-term.
- High air quality: You can install filters or an air purifier in your furnace system to remove contaminants and allergens from your HVAC system.
- Energy efficiency: Your furnace can produce lots of heat without burning high quantities of fuel.
Furnace Types
When buying a new furnace, you have four main types to choose from:
- Natural gas
- Oil
- Electric
- Propane
Natural gas furnaces are the most common because they are efficient and economical. Oil and electric furnaces often have lower upfront installation costs, making them an appealing option for budget-conscious buyers. Propane furnaces provide a useful fuel source in isolated areas where natural gas or oil lines are unavailable.

”The staff was courteous and professional at all times. They cleaned up after themselves. They even provided a fan for me while they were doing the install since my AC was out and it was a hot day.”

As your furnace ages, it stops working as well as before. After about 15 to 20 years, a new installation will often serve you better than repeated repairs. If you need a new furnace, we can visit your home to assess your requirements and suggest a quality system that fits your home. When you’re ready, we can return to install your new unit and ensure it works properly.
