Furnace Installation or Replacement in St. George & Hurricane

Choosing the Right Furnace by Fuel Type

Your first decision is easy: choosing the fuel type.

The most common source is natural gas. Your local utility company supplies fuel to your home through an underground gas line. The price of natural gas is relatively stable, so you don’t have to worry about cost fluctuations. Plus, you never need to worry about storage.

• If you have access to a natural gas line, we strongly recommend a gas furnace. These furnaces have proven their value over the years for providing steady comfort on the coldest of days.
• Oil furnaces are a popular alternative in the United States, particularly in parts of the Northeast that do not have easy access to natural gas. These types of furnaces last longer than gas furnaces but do not operate as efficiently. Oil prices fluctuate more than natural gas prices, making it harder to gauge your monthly expenses. Plus, you will need a storage tank for the oil.
• Electric furnaces tend to last longer than gas furnaces and cost less to install. On the other hand, they are more expensive to operate and take longer to heat your home. Anyone living in a cold climate would enjoy more comfort with a gas or oil furnace.

Choosing the Right Furnace Speed

Furnaces run at different speeds. The operating speed you choose will impact your comfort, budget, and indoor air quality (IAQ).

Single-stage furnaces have just two settings, on or off. Your furnace switches on and continues to run to reach the desired temperature. Once it reaches the temperature, the furnace turns off. Single-stage furnaces are the most affordable models and easiest to install. But they are the least efficient and tend to create hot and cold spots in larger homes.

Two-stage furnaces run at full speed and half speed. This allows your furnace to heat your home more evenly, producing a more consistent temperature from room to room. In addition to producing better heating, the half-speed setting is much quieter.

Variable-speed furnaces are the gold standard of the heating world. These models adjust their speeds to provide precise comfort. They run longer at slower speeds, improving efficiencies while lowering your energy bills. Because they do not frequently cycle on and off, these systems tend to have fewer breakdowns.

Variable-speed furnaces are much more adept in maintaining your indoor air quality, catching harmful particles, and eliminating excess moisture that causes mold growth. Larger homes benefit tremendously from variable-speed furnaces.

Choosing an Efficient Furnace

The AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency(opens in new tab)) rating on your furnace indicates how much energy it converts. An energy-efficient furnace with an AFUE rating of 95 can convert 95 percent of the energy it consumes into heat.

The higher the AFUE rating, the more money you save on monthly utility bills. Energy-efficient furnaces emit fewer greenhouse gases and make less noise when they operate. If you want to reduce your home’s carbon footprint, the perfect place to start is with your heating and cooling equipment!

Frequently Asked Questions- Furnace Services in St. George

How much does a new furnace cost in St. George, UT?

Furnace installation typically ranges based on your home's size, the unit's AFUE rating, and ductwork condition. We provide a written, no-obligation estimate after a free in-home consultation so you get an exact number for your house, not a generic range.

How long does a gas furnace last?

A well-maintained gas furnace typically lasts 15 to 20 years. Annual maintenance, a correctly sized unit, and a clean filter are the biggest factors in reaching the high end of that range.

What size furnace do I need for my home?

Furnace size depends on your home's square footage, insulation, ceiling height, and window count, not just square footage alone. Our technicians perform a load calculation during your free consultation to size the unit correctly and avoid the hot and cold spots an oversized or undersized furnace causes.

Do I really need a furnace in St. George's mild winters?

Yes. St. George winters are mild on average, but overnight lows regularly drop into the 20s and 30s, and a home without reliable heat can see frozen pipes after just a few cold nights in a row. A properly sized furnace protects your home, not just your comfort.

How often should a furnace be serviced?

Once a year, ideally in early fall before winter demand starts. Regular maintenance catches small issues before they become expensive repairs and keeps your AFUE efficiency close to its rated value.

What's the difference between single-stage, two-stage, and variable-speed furnaces?

Single-stage furnaces run at one speed and cost the least upfront. Two-stage furnaces run at two speeds for more even heat. Variable-speed furnaces continuously adjust output for the most precise comfort and the best efficiency, at a higher upfront cost.
