Selecting the right MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) filter is more important than you might think. Why? Because in a forced-air system, both your furnace and your indoor air quality depend on the filter’s ability to capture dust, debris and other airborne contaminants before they circulate throughout the home.

Buying a furnace can be an overwhelming process. Between the number of brands to choose from, the various options to consider and the cost of an upgrade, you may feel like throwing up your hands and sticking with the old clunker down in the basement. But don’t despair! Buying a furnace doesn’t have to be complicated. You just need to keep these three things in mind. 
Winter storms in Northeast Ohio are no joke. While some storms are merely inconvenient, others bring enough snow, ice and high winds to cause widespread power outages. 
‘Tis the season for frozen pipes — one of the most frustrating and potentially destructive issues that homeowners in Northeast Ohio face during the winter months. 
If you have a standard tank water heater, you are essentially paying for energy to keep water inside the tank heated for the few times that you actually use it. Installing a tankless water heater eliminates this problem, since this type of system uses water that’s heated as it’s used. 
Natural gas is an excellent fuel. It burns clean and is cost-effective because of its ready availability. But using it in the home can be a double-edged sword if gas leaks ever occur. 
All homes have some level of natural air exchange, but if your home is well sealed and highly insulated, natural ventilation may not be enough to maintain high quality indoor air. The last thing you want to do is open up a window and negate the energy savings a tightly sealed home affords. The solution is a heat or energy recovery ventilation system. 
With winter settled in here in Northeast Ohio, homeowners tend to recall last year’s energy bills, and then look for ways to save energy, or consider installing a more efficient system to heat their homes. Upgrading to a new furnace, even if your existing system isn’t all that old, can mean significant energy savings. And you will find that paying more now can save you a lot in the long run. 
For Northeast Ohio homeowners looking to upgrade their furnace systems, there are many important factors to consider before making a decision. By understanding factors such as AFUE ratings, you can choose a furnace system that meets your needs and promotes energy savings.
