Answers to Your Frequently Asked Questions
Whatever you need to know about your heating system options here in Lubbock, we’re happy to provide. If you don’t see your question here, feel free to give us a call at (806) 329-2723.
- Gas furnace installation: These systems supply heat using your home’s natural gas supply. As both an HVAC and plumbing company, we can ensure your gas lines are fully functional and up-to-code any time we install a gas furnace.
- Heat pump installation: Heat pumps are a highly efficient way for Lubbock homeowners to meet their heating and cooling needs. Working as an air conditioner in the summer and a heater in the colder months, these systems move heat rather than generate it, making them more energy efficient in the long run.
- Dual-fuel heater installation: These home comfort systems pair a traditional gas furnace with an electric heat pump, alternating between fuel sources as necessary to handle any extreme fluctuations in temperature.
- Ductless mini-split heating system: These systems are great for homes without air ducts or in situations where extending ductwork isn’t practical, such as new home additions or two-story homes with limited ducting or return air options.
Here are the general steps to determine the right furnace size:
- Calculate the square footage of the home: If you don’t know your home’s square footage, you can measure the length and width of each room, then multiply them. Add up every room to get the total square footage.
- Determine the climate zone: Different regions have different heating requirements, and the furnace size needed for a home in a colder climate will be different from a home in a warmer climate. Lubbock is unique in that it has short but very cold winters. The team at Earl’s has the expert insight to know what works best in our climate.
- Consider insulation and air leakage: A well-insulated home with minimal air leakage will require a smaller furnace than a poorly insulated one with drafts. Now is also a good time to address any air duct repairs you may need!
- Consult with a professional: A licensed HVAC contractor can assess your home’s heating needs and recommend the appropriate furnace size based on these considerations and additional factors, such as your home’s layout, your budget, and your family’s usage habits.
It’s important to choose the right size of furnace to ensure optimal energy efficiency, comfort, and longevity. A furnace that’s too small will struggle to keep up with the demand for heat, while a furnace that’s too large will waste energy and cost more to operate.
We also offer our own Earl’s Exclusive Home Warranty so that you can rest easy if and when your old heater or other home system fails! Call us today or reach out online to ask about these options—we’re happy to help you find a system that will fit your family’s budget and needs.
