Radiant Floor Heat Verses Forced Air Furnaces in Ann Arbor

Are you hearing noises coming from your furnace?

Do you get cold in the middle of the night?

Do you suffer from seasonal allergies or allergies all year around?

The way your house is heated may be at the root of your problems. However, you’re not alone, because many people have a heating system that doesn’t fit their needs. For some, radiant floor heat may be the best option, but for others, forced air may be better.

According to Energy.gov, there are advantages to both types of heating systems, including:

Radiant:

1. Eliminates duct losses.
2. Removes allergens.
3. Uses less electricity.
4. Runs mostly silent.
5. Enables you to set different temperatures for each room.
6. Easier to maintain. No ducts to clean, and no filter to change.

      Forced Air Heat:

1. Cheaper to install.
2. Cheaper to maintain.
3. Heats and cools your home.
4. Simple to use.
5. Treated by a humidifier, reducing dry air.

After people get their heating system inspected by a professional, they are typically faced with the question, “Is my heating system worth replacing to maximize my comfort?” We always suggest doing what’s best for you. If replacing your entire heating system to maximize your comfort isn’t in the budget, we won’t push you.
