What to Consider Prior to Your Heating Installation

With the coldest time of the year rapidly approaching, you really need to get your heating installation out of the way if you need a new system installed in your home. It won’t be long before temperatures are consistently cold enough to make a heating installation a bit of an inconvenience. Of course, you also must be careful not to rush through the process, as your heating installation in Fort Collins, CO will have a major influence on your comfort and your budget for years to come. Consider the following information, and remember to make Fort Collins Heating & Air Conditioning the company that you call to have your heating system installed properly. 

Distribution Method

The method of heat distribution utilized by any given heater is a major factor to consider. If you are happy with forced air heating, then a heat pump or furnace may be fine for you. If you don’t want to run the risk of energy loss and indoor air quality issues due to leaky ductwork, but still want warm air blowing throughout your home, you may want to consider the use of a ductless heater. Want to forgo forced air altogether? Then ask us about radiant heating systems.

Size of System

It is not enough that you invest in a great heating system. You must also know for certain that that heating system is of the right size for your home. The only way to be sure of this is to have a trained professional complete a detailed heat load calculation in your home. There is much more to a heat load calculation than simply the square footage of your home, so dial our number to have it done right.

Your Budget

This may sound obvious, but it really is necessary that you have a firm grasp of your budget if you hope to enjoy 100% satisfaction with your new heating system. You don’t want to strain yourself financially, of course, but you also don’t want to invest in a very cheap system, only to be paying more than you should in order to heat your home over the years due to a low efficiency rating. We’ll make sure that you are able to find the right balance between affordability, efficiency, and performance quality.
