Replacement Systems

Homeowners with just a little guidance can make a wise decision on a new furnace that they can be happy with for years to come.

When shopping for a furnace ask yourself a few general questions. Was I happy with my old furnace? If not, why were you unhappy? Comfort? Reliability? Performance? Cost to Operate? From an investment point of view (ROI about 18%) furnaces are unique that in time they can more than pay for themselves.

If you plan on staying in your current home for years to come, you will want to invest in a top-of-the-line product. Today's furnaces are a far cry from the equipment used a generation ago. Plus, you won't need to upgrade when you sell your home down the line.

One of the first things to consider when purchasing a gas furnace is its efficiency. This is indicated by the Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency rating or AFUE. Penning offers a variety of highly efficient gas furnaces, ranging from 80 to 95% efficiency.

We also offer variable speed and two-stage furnaces, which can greatly increase your comfort level.

Variable speed furnaces have up to 4x the power of a standard furnace blower motor, overcoming many ductwork problems that prevent even heating. Plus they cost 80% less to operate electrically than a standard furnace blower motor.

Owning a two-stage furnace is like having two furnaces in one. The low-fire gas valve operates during milder temperatures, and in extreme weather, the high-fire valve kicks in as well. Your home always maintains a comfortable temperature while your furnace utitlizes only the energy it needs.
