The most important factor in getting an efficient and comfortable furnace is the company doing the installation. At the risk of being negative about our own industry, heating and air conditioning contractors, as a whole, do a very poor job of installing heating and cooling systems!

A recent report from the Comfort Institute observed that there is simply a lot more to efficient operation of your furnace than the manufacturers’ ratings. Efficiency numbers are measured in a controlled, ideal laboratory setting. A lot can and does go wrong when a contractor takes the equipment out into the real world and installs it in your home. Most homeowners are simply not getting the efficiency they are paying for.

In a recent utility study, 9 out of every 10 new systems had energy wasting mistakes due to errors or oversights by the installing contractor. The EPA states:

“Newly installed heating and cooling systems that are under or over-sized, improperly charged, or connected to a poorly designed and installed duct system will not deliver the rated efficiency.”
