Types of Furnaces We Install and Service

Our heating specialists install, repair, and replace two main types of furnaces: gas and electric systems.

Gas Furnaces

Gas furnaces are typically the most common type due to using a home's natural gas supply. With a direct connection, these types of systems not only provide efficient heating but also save on energy usage, resulting in lower utility bills.

The drawback to all this is that the installation of a gas furnace is much more expensive compared to electric furnaces. It should also be noted that the installation process risks having natural gas leak into your home.

To keep yourself safe, it's best to use our available gas furnace installation services in Greer, South Carolina and other areas. Our team members will work with you to choose the correct size and efficiency-rating for your brand new gas furnace.

Electric Furnaces

An electrical furnace utilizes your home’s electricity as a fuel source. The process of using electricity causes the furnace to not produce heating at the best efficiency when compared to gas. The upside to this is that the installation process has a much lower price tag in comparison. This makes electric furnaces a perfect option for homeowners with no gas connection or on a tighter budget.

Choosing the Right Furnace

Homeowners who are new to furnaces may run into the difficult question, “What is the best furnace for my home?” Furnaces are a big investment and you don’t want to make the wrong choice.

When considering a new furnace it is best to take these factors into account:

  • Home Size: Furnaces that are too small or big can cause difficulty in providing the proper heating. A great way to measure this is by calculating the furnace size with a BTU calculator, which measures the heating and cooling needs of a room or house.
  • Desired Energy-Efficiency: Put a focus on energy usage, as certain furnaces will be more efficient during operations. High energy-efficiency furnace models not only provide better heating but keep your energy bill much lower.
  • Budget: Sometimes money can be tight. Furnace prices can vary drastically, ranging from a couple of thousand dollars to tens of thousands for a single unit. Take time to find a unit that gets your desired heating and efficiency without breaking the bank.

Furnace Installation Services

Once you’ve chosen the best furnace for your home, the next step is scheduling seamless furnace installation services. Installations can be risky, especially in the case of gas furnaces. Our team of heating specialists performs safe and non-disruptive installations for homeowners in the local Geer area.

Single-Stage and Two-Stage Furnaces

Consider fuel sources, energy needs, and even your budget when choosing a furnace. As you consider your choices, think about whether you need a single-stage or two-stage furnace.

Single-Stage Furnaces

A typical furnace is installed with an on or off setting. This is what is considered a single-stage furnace as there is only one heating setting when turned on.

Two-Stage Furnaces

A two-stage furnace has an additional setting that provides 60% to 70% of the furnace’s maximum heating output. The output is known as British Thermal Units or BTUs. The lower output mode can decrease the amount of times the furnace has to operate to heat your home. Lowering the amount of use decreases the wear and tear on the unit and components.

In certain cases, a furnace operating at full output is not necessary. This is especially the case with South Carolina residents who don’t have winter temperatures dipping lower than 30 degrees. In that case, a home would need to be heated but doesn’t need full output to provide sufficient warmth.

Whether you are considering a single-stage or two-stage furnace, our team of professionals provide installation services across Upstate South Carolina.

Modulating Furnaces

Another system type (separate from single and two-stage units) is a modulating furnace. These kinds of furnaces have various heating settings, ranging from the full 100% output, and dipping to around 40%. The furnace can modulate the heating output between this large range, allowing for precise controlled comfort.

The biggest difference when considering modulating vs two-stage furnaces is that the modulation of lower outputs allows further precision. Take, for example, a two-story home, where the bottom floor is typically much colder than the other. A modulating furnace can continue heating the lower floor even when the top is sufficiently heated. It does this all while benefiting from lower energy usage.

Our staff provides exceptional modulating furnace installation services in Simpsonville, South Carolina and has the experience required to configure a brand new HVAC system in your home.

Top Furnace Issues Our Professionals Will Help You Fix

When you turn on your furnace this winter, your unit may encounter a variety of common problems. Corley Pro’s expert furnace repairs resolve these issues. Common issues we encounter and fix include:

Dirty Ductwork

Over time, your ducts can be a collection site for everything from dust to debris. When enough debris compacts your ducts, it can start affecting the airflow of your heating. If you’re experiencing inconsistent heating, contact our staff members to receive support.

Clogged Air Filters

These filters help catch contaminants in your air such as allergens and dust, keeping the airflow clean. The accumulation of all that debris and grime can leave the filters unable to do their job anymore. If your furnace is running harder than ever but your heating doesn’t seem to be getting better, it might be time for a filter change.

Malfunctioning Starting Mechanism

The starting mechanism is a component that jump-starts the heating cycle of your furnace. In older models, the mechanism is the pilot light, while newer models use electrical ignitions.

When these mechanisms fail, your furnace may not be able to operate or run efficiently. It's best to get this mechanism inspected and repaired by a professional. Fortunately, our technicians provide dependable furnace repair services in Greenville, South Carolina and have the training necessary to fix your defective starting mechanism.

Damaged Blower Components

Blower components allow hot air to be blown into your ductwork. Over time these components can suffer from wear and tear, leaving them unable to perform this process. When warm air stops blowing, it's time for these components to be repaired or replaced.

Broken Blower Bearings

The ball bearings are a key part of the blower mechanism. The set of bearings can develop wear when used over long periods or become damaged if mishandled during the installation process. Listen to your furnace carefully for a scraping sound, as this indicates these bearings are malfunctioning. A Corley technician can replace these components, restoring the function of your blower mechanism.

Worn Out Blower Belt

Another part of the blower mechanism is the belt to the blower fan. A damaged or worn-down belt makes a distinct high-pitched squeal from within the furnace. The belt can also simply slip out of place, causing the blower mechanism to malfunction. Our expert team performs furnace tune-ups and repairs for blower belts to get the blower up and running again.

Defective Blower Capacitor

A defective blower capacitor may result in a power surge, causing a short circuit, or even tripping your home’s circuit breaker.

A sudden breakdown is a telltale sign of a malfunctioning blower capacitor. If you encounter this issue with your heating system, contact our staff to book an appointment. Our team provides extensive furnace repair services in Easley, South Carolina and will work with you to fix the broken blower capacitor in your system.

Deteriorated Heat Exchanger

Your heat exchanger is a set of heated tubes that converts warm air into your home. As time goes on, the tubes of the heat exchanger may begin cracking and breaking. If the air is not very warm, you may need a Corley Pro replacement service for your heat exchanger.

Inoperable Limit Switch

A furnace’s limit switch detects the internal heat, which turns the blower fan on and off depending on how high the temperature is. If the temperature gets potentially dangerous, the limit switch can completely shut down the furnace, keeping you safe from potential fires. A furnace that runs constantly may indicate a broken limit switch.

Dirty Flame Sensor

This sensor is positioned on top of the limit switch. If there is no flame present, the sensor will safely shut down the entire system. Over time, things can wear down or dust can accumulate on the sensor rod, resulting in premature system shutdowns. For the sake of your time and safety, the job is best left to the team at Corley Pro.

Strange Noises

Listen carefully to your furnace unit for loud or unexpected noises. Noises can sound like clanking, squealing, and thumping for example. These noises typically indicate an internal malfunction with the furnace’s components. Your furnace has numerous parts. So if you assume there is a problem, call on a Corley Pro technician for needed maintenance and repair.
