📊 What Does AFUE Mean?

AFUE stands for Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency—a key measure of how efficiently your furnace turns fuel into usable heat. The higher the AFUE, the more heat you get for every dollar spent on energy.

Older furnaces (pre-2000s): 56–70% AFUE

New energy-efficient models: Up to 98.5% AFUE

By replacing your old furnace, you can lower your heating bills, reduce your carbon footprint, and enjoy more consistent comfort.

We don’t believe in band-aid fixes—only lasting furnace repairs you can count on. All our repairs are backed by warranty protection, and we offer emergency furnace repair for those frigid Ohio nights.

❓ Furnace Replacement FAQs

🔍 How long does it take to replace a furnace?

Most furnace replacements take one day or less. We’ll provide an accurate timeline and keep your home clean throughout the process.

🔌 Should I switch from gas to electric (or electric to gas)?

That depends on your home setup, energy prices, and your comfort goals. We’ll explain the cost differences, efficiency, and pros/cons of each option during your consultation.

🔁 Is it better to repair or replace my furnace?

If your system is over 12 years old or if the repair cost exceeds 30–40% of the price of a new unit, a replacement usually makes more financial sense.
