Furnaces

A furnace is a major household appliance that provides heat. For the most part furnaces provide this heat through forced hot air, unlike boilers which provide heat through both hot water and steam. You know you own a furnace if:

• While the heat is running air comes out of floor or ceiling grills.
• Air blows around the house in normal use.
• Your air conditioning comes out of the same registers.
• There is a sheet metal ducted system in the basement.

Furnaces, as well as boilers can run on different fuels, the most common is Natural gas and Oil. LP Gas, however, has become a popular replacement to Oil. In some areas of the country Oil is still popular but Oil has limitations.

One of which, is it cannot be installed in upper levels of the home.
