A reliable and efficient heating system is not a luxury in Montgomery, IL; it's a necessity for navigating our cold winters comfortably and safely.

Is It Time for a New Heating System?
It can be difficult to know when a simple repair is no longer sufficient and a full replacement is the more sensible option. If you are experiencing any of the following issues, it may be time to consider a new heating installation:
- Age of the System: Most furnaces have a lifespan of 15-20 years, while heat pumps and boilers may vary. If your unit is approaching or has surpassed this age range, it is operating on borrowed time and with diminishing efficiency.
- Rising Energy Bills: A sudden or steady increase in your heating costs without a corresponding change in your usage is a clear sign that your system is losing efficiency. An aging unit has to work harder and longer to produce the same amount of heat, consuming more energy in the process.
- Frequent and Costly Repairs: Are you on a first-name basis with your repair technician? If your heating system requires frequent service calls and the repair costs are beginning to add up, investing that money into a new, reliable system is often the more economical choice in the long run.
- Uneven Heating and Cold Spots: A properly functioning heating system should distribute warm air evenly throughout your home. If you notice significant temperature differences between rooms or persistent cold spots, it could indicate an improperly sized system or failing components that a new installation can resolve.
- Strange Noises or Odors: While some operational noise is normal, loud banging, rattling, squealing, or grinding sounds are serious warning signs of mechanical failure. Similarly, unusual smells could indicate a critical issue that requires immediate attention.
Our Comprehensive Heating Installation Process
We believe in a transparent and thorough process that ensures your new heating system is perfectly suited for your home and installed for optimal performance. Our approach is designed to provide peace of mind from the initial assessment to the final walkthrough.
- In-Home Assessment and Consultation: We begin by conducting a detailed evaluation of your home. This includes assessing your existing ductwork, insulation levels, window quality, and the overall thermal envelope of your property. We listen to your comfort preferences, discuss your budget, and answer any questions you may have.
- System Sizing and Selection: One of the most critical steps is performing a "Manual J" load calculation. This scientific assessment determines the precise heating capacity your home requires. We never use guesswork or simply replace your old unit with a same-sized model. Based on this calculation, we help you select the ideal furnace, boiler, or heat pump that matches your home's needs and your efficiency goals.
- Professional, Code-Compliant Installation: Our certified technicians handle every aspect of the installation with precision and care. This includes the safe removal and disposal of your old unit, making any necessary modifications to ductwork or connection points, and setting the new equipment according to manufacturer specifications and all Montgomery, IL, local building codes.
- System Testing and Commissioning: Once the physical installation is complete, we don't just turn the system on and leave. We perform a comprehensive series of tests to ensure every component is functioning correctly. We check gas pressure, electrical connections, thermostat calibration, and airflow to guarantee your new system operates safely and at peak efficiency.
- Final Walkthrough and Education: We conclude the process by walking you through your new system. We’ll show you how to operate the thermostat, explain any new features, and provide guidance on routine maintenance, such as changing the air filter. We ensure you are completely comfortable and confident with your new heating system before we consider the job done.
Choosing the Right Heating System for Your Home
We install a variety of high-quality heating systems to meet the diverse needs of local homeowners.
- Furnaces (Gas and Electric): As the most common type of heating system in the region, modern gas furnaces offer exceptional efficiency, with AFUE ratings often exceeding 95%. They provide powerful, consistent heat. Electric furnaces are an excellent alternative for homes without access to natural gas.
- Heat Pumps: These versatile systems provide both heating and cooling in one unit. They are highly energy-efficient, especially in moderate cold, as they move heat rather than creating it. For our coldest winter days, they are typically paired with a supplemental heat source.
- Boilers: For homes with radiators or radiant floor heating, boilers offer superior comfort. They heat water that circulates through pipes, providing a gentle, even warmth that doesn't dry out the air like forced-air systems can.
- Ductless Mini-Splits: An ideal solution for homes without existing ductwork, for new additions, or for zoning specific areas. These systems consist of an outdoor condenser and one or more indoor air handlers, offering flexible and highly efficient heating and cooling.
Frequently Asked Questions About Heating Installation
How long does a typical heating installation take?
While every project is unique, a standard furnace or heat pump replacement in a residential home can typically be completed within one full day. More complex installations, such as those involving new ductwork or a boiler system, may take longer.
What does AFUE mean?
AFUE stands for Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency. It is a percentage that measures how efficiently a furnace converts fuel into heating energy. A higher AFUE rating means greater energy efficiency. For example, a 95% AFUE furnace converts 95 cents of every dollar spent on fuel into heat for your home.
How do I know what size heating system I need?
System sizing is crucial for both comfort and efficiency. An undersized unit will struggle to heat your home, while an oversized unit will cycle on and off too frequently, leading to wasted energy and excessive wear and tear. We determine the correct size for your home by performing a professional load calculation that considers factors like square footage, layout, insulation, and local climate data.
