How to Choose the Right Furnace for Your Home

Which type of Myrtle Beach heating system you need in your home depends on your individual needs. When deciding what type of new system to install, keep the following considerations in mind:

• Gas or Electric: There are two furnace variants: gas and electric. Electric models are usually cheaper to install than gas, but may cost you more if they are less energy efficient. You will need to consider fuel costs for gas models, however. One of our professionals can help recommend which is better for your Myrtle Beach, SC, home.
• Size: Did you know that the size of your furnace plays a part in how well it heats your Myrtle Beach home? You don’t want one that is too large or too small. A good middle-ground model (for your size home) will heat your Myrtle Beach, SC, home perfectly without leaving you too cold or too hot.
