Furnace Installation
Our team always makes sure a furnace can keep things warm. First, we assess your property to determine the best size. Too small a furnace won’t heat the entire space; too large a unit will be strained, running in shorter cycles. Over time, this means wasted energy, higher utility bills, and more frequent repairs/a shortened operating life.
The type of unit is also important. We help our customers choose furnaces that work for them, including cleaner-burning natural gas furnaces, but liquefied propane is often used where natural gas isn’t available. Barstow and Sons can also arrange to accommodate your new system with the proper ductwork and exhaust components so it runs safely and at peak efficiency.
Skilled, professional installation ensures there is always a fuel source available and the furnace is properly ventilated, avoiding serious, potentially fatal issues with exhaust gases.
Furnace Repair
Hot Annapolis summers can seem endless, but the heating season takes up much of the year. Furnace inspections should be completed in the fall, but heating repairs may be needed at any time. Heating maintenance on your furnace is important because it:
- Maximizes efficiency
- Tunes up performance
- Avoids most service repair calls
- Prolongs equipment life
Maintenance service costs much less than replacing components prematurely. There are also many things to consider when furnace repair is the option. If your furnace is less within 15 to 20 years old, it may still be practical to repair it, unless you stand to save substantially with more current, efficient technologies.
Repair costs should be less than 50% of the price of new heating installations. This means fixing the unit may still be practical if the blower motor or belt is preventing the system from blowing air, or a fan belt slips and causes the unit to squeal.
Various fixable problems can trigger noise such as pinging, popping, rattling, or grinding.
Dirty filters, blocked registers, and failed thermostats can lead to reduced efficiency or complete failure. Our technicians are highly skilled at determining the root cause of a problem and providing effective solutions. Whether we service gas or electric furnaces, we can perform the necessary heating repairs, so you restore your furnace’s performance.
Contact us if your furnace is:
- Leaking gas
- Providing insufficient heat
- Not blowing air
- Cycling on/off too often
- Repeatedly shutting off after 5 minutes
- Running continuously
- Making unusual noise
