An important part of understanding how to keep your home its warmest and most comfortable in the winter months here in Maryland is knowing how your furnace works and whether it is time for a gas furnace replacement.

Exxel Mechanical Services offers repairs on old furnaces, but there are also many benefits to installing a furnace replacement for your home. There are several key differences between older furnaces, usually called single speed or single stage, and newer furnaces that operate at variable speeds such as the modulating variable speed furnace.

The variable speed aspect of this furnace, such as the Amana gas furnace, means that the furnace can operate between full speed and off. This type of furnace will adjust its speed to the needs of your home at any given time, enabling multiple lower speeds that reduce fuel usage and increase the temperature consistency. A variable speed ensures few temperature variations so that it remains right at the thermostat’s set temperature. The lower constant speed also means less noise when operating, making for a quieter, more comfortable environment overall.

The Amana gas furnace is the only one that is both designed and made in the USA. Not only does it come backed with a limited lifetime warranty, but Exxel offers their own 100% satisfaction guaranty, thus a double warranty in effect.

The lower consistent blower speed of these high efficiency gas gas replacement furnaces also means huge savings in energy costs. These blowers use less than a quarter of the energy of traditional blowers as measured in watts per hour. An example might be 75 watts per hour for a variable speed blower versus 400 watts per hour for a single speed or single stage blower.

The modulating aspect of the modulating variable speed furnace further allows for further fine temperature control in your home. The valve adjusts the amount of gas incoming to the burner flame, so that not only is the speed of the blower adjustable, but so is the intensity and heat output. This automatic function controlling the amount of gas entering your furnace makes for significant fuel savings over time.

Bob Gunning, president of Exxel Mechanical Services, states, “When looking at an HVAC replacement, we want our customers to feel comfortable coming to us with all sorts of questions, remember we offer free quotes and consultations anytime.”
