Vermont Furnace Installation & Replacement
Most of us think about heating systems only when something goes wrong. As long as we're warm, we're happy. We'll get the routine maintenance done, but we don't want to spend money on anything like an "expensive" new heating system, especially in tough economic times.

But think about the difference between "spending" and "investing." Replacing an old, inefficient furnace with a modern, energy efficient and state-of-the-art heating system is an investment that offers excellent returns. With the cold winters we experience in Vermont, a new furnace can be critical to our daily lives. What's more ... the returns on this investment get better as energy prices rise.
Here's an example. Peter's home is heated with a 20 year-old furnace which is 75% efficient. He burns 800 gallons of oil each year, and has been given an estimate of $3,500 to install a new 83% efficient furnace and a programmable thermostat. Even if he takes advantage of low-interest loans, Peter is concerned about the cost. But the true cost is modest: $35 a month if oil stays at $3.00 a gallon, falling to $25 a month if oil goes to $4.00 a gallon. (Do the math, or let us do it for you.) And the new furnace uses 120 gallons less oil each year!
