Furnace Installation & Replacement Services

If you have an aging furnace reaching the end of its lifespan, contact us for a full professional furnace replacement service. We also install brand-new gas and electric furnaces to heat your Tarzana home all winter. There are many benefits to upgrading your furnace.

Lower energy bills

Today’s modern furnaces include new features like variable-speed blower motors and two-stage functionality to provide homeowners with outstanding energy savings. These new energy-efficient models are designed to convert almost all fuel into usable heat, resulting in lower energy costs and lower monthly utility bills. There are also several incentives available when upgrading to a new furnace to help you save even more. 

Improved home comfort

New furnaces distribute heat more evenly to eliminate cold spots while maintaining a more consistent temperature throughout your home. Combine that with smart thermostat compatibility, and your new furnace will keep your home reliably comfortable for many winters to come.

Better reliability

Older furnaces are prone to breakdowns, but new systems provide optimum performance and trusted reliability. New, high-quality components work to provide you with trusted heating and less worry about expensive repairs or stressful breakdowns. Upgrading to a new furnace provides peace of mind and lower repair costs.

Tarzana Heat Pump Installation Experts

Fleetwell also provides expert heat pump installation in Tarzana. Unlike a furnace, which only provides heat, a heat pump offers both heating and cooling in a single unit, making maintenance and upkeep easier while providing energy-efficient savings. This fully electric system doesn’t use natural gas and transfers heat from a cooler area to a warmer area, and vice versa.

This is how a heat pump works, so you’re aware of the differences and how it keeps your home comfortable. 

• Refrigerant cycles: A special fluid called refrigerant moves through the heat pump and absorbs heat when it evaporates in the outdoor unit, and releases heat when it condenses in the indoor unit, called an air handler.

• Compressor: The compressor uses electricity to increase the pressure of the refrigerant to raise its temperature.

• Heat exchanger: In heating mode, the heat exchanger transfers heat from the outdoor air to the refrigerant.

• Reversing valve: This part is exclusive to heat pumps and reverses the flow of refrigerant to help the unit switch between heating and cooling. 

Is It Time to Replace Your HVAC System?

It’s important to recognize the signs, so you know when it’s time to replace your HVAC system.

System age

The average lifespan of most heating systems is between 10 and 15 years. While routine maintenance helps to prolong system lifespan, if your current system is approaching the 10-year-old mark, it may be best to pay for an upgrade to get better comfort and energy savings. As heating systems age, the components start to wear out, and it might be more cost-effective to pay for a replacement.

Frequent issues

Dealing with constant breakdowns and having to pay for frequent repairs isn’t just stressful, it’s also costly and time-consuming. If you’re paying for repairs or dealing with breakdowns more often than normal, it may be a better idea to get a furnace or heat pump replacement.

Rising energy bills

If your monthly heating costs are suddenly much higher than normal without a change in usage, it might be due to your system starting to lose energy efficiency. When this happens, it could be a simple fix, or it may be a complex issue that’s better resolved by upgrading to a new system.

Strange noises or unusual odors

Persistent strange sounds like rattling, banging, or screeching often indicate a failing component or system malfunction. If you experience persistent odors like a burning smell, which may be due to an electrical problem, or a rotten egg smell, likely due to a gas leak, it’s time to consider a heating system replacement. Gas leaks are a serious safety hazard, so contact Fleetwell right away if you notice a rotten egg odor.
