​
Types of Heating Systems
Furnaces: The most common type of heating system, furnaces can run on electricity, natural gas, or oil. They work by blowing heated air through ducts that deliver warm air to rooms throughout the home. Furnaces are known for their efficiency, longevity, and ability to provide consistent warmth.
Heat Pumps: Heat pumps are a versatile option, offering both heating and cooling capabilities. They work by extracting heat from the outside air (even in cold temperatures) and transferring it inside. In warmer months, the process reverses to cool your home. Heat pumps are especially energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.
Boilers: Boilers heat water, providing either hot water or steam for heating. Steam is distributed via pipes to steam radiators, while hot water can be used in radiators or under-floor heating systems. Boilers are known for their ability to deliver comfortable, consistent heat without the drafts associated with forced air systems. Most common in the north.
Radiant Heating: This system uses panels in walls, floors, or ceilings to directly heat the objects and people in the room. Radiant heating provides a uniform temperature throughout the space and eliminates the circulation of dust and allergens, making it a great option for those with respiratory concerns.
