Replacing Natural Gas Furnaces and AC Units
Every twenty or thirty years most homeowners will find the need to replace their heating and cooling equipment. That is to say, if you own a home long enough you will eventually need to replace your furnace and your outdoor AC unit. The question for a growing number of homeowners is – when that replacement cycle comes around for your home – what will you install to replace what’s there now?
It might be a geothermal heat pump with a drilled ground loop outside, or it might be an air source heat pump that does not require any excavation work to install. Or will you simply default back to the traditional option of replacing the old system with a new gas furnace and a new AC unit. Thousands of homes in the GTA have already been upgraded and converted over to renewable, geothermal energy systems. Hundreds more will each year, adding to this growing trend, but many thousands of other homepwners will opt instead to reinvest into the old standard and extend their petroleum dependancy.
It is encouraging for those of us who advocate for the expanded use of renewable energy to see so many homeowners inquiring about a retrofit for their existing home. Unforturnately, not all homes are situated on properties that are good candidates for the outside work that is needed to install the geothermal ground loop. In fact, many of those smaller homes may be better suited to a retrofit using an air source heat pump system. The federal government has introduced rebate and loan programs to encourage homeowners to retrofit their heating systems by replacing their old furnaces. If you are considering what you can do to reduce your dependancy on burning fossil fuels this program should be of interest . It will provide an extra financial incentive for improving the energy efficiency and operting costs of heating your home.
