Modern furnaces come in numerous styles that use a variety of heat sources, so there\u2019s almost always a furnace that\u2019s right for your home. Natural gas-powered furnaces are particularly energy-efficienct and effective at providing whatever level of heat you need.<\/p>\n<h3>Heat Pumps<\/h3>\n<p>The climate in Hammond is well-suited for a heat pump, an electrically-powered system that is essentially and air conditioner that can reverse the direction it moves heat so it brings heat <i>inside<\/i> your home. The major advantage of a heat pump is that it works as both an AC and a heater, so you\u2019re covered for a whole year with a single unit. Heat pumps also have high energy-efficiency in heating mode because they use electricity to power the mechanics that move heat, not to directly generate heat as in an electric furnace.<\/p>\n<h3>Ductless Mini Split Heat Pumps<\/h3>\n<p>This system uses the same method of providing heat as a heat pump: the difference is its delivery system. As the name implies, ductless mini split heat pumps do not require ductwork. Instead, they use multiple blower units mounted on walls throughout a home to push the conditioned air directly into the rooms. This saves money on duct cleaning and repairs, and also gives you control over which rooms receive heating\/cooling.<\/p>\n<h3>Fireplaces<\/h3>\n<p>Wait\u2026 <i>what?<\/i> A fireplace is only cosmetic, right? No, not necessarily. Although we don\u2019t advise that you have a fireplace as your sole heating system, an efficient gas log or electric insert, or a pellet stove, can provide large levels of heat to a specific place in the home that can take some of the stress off your other systems. And, of course, they come with the benefit of coziness.<\/p>\n<p>All of these heating systems require professional installation, so make the wise move and have the installers involved from the start of choosing a heater. An HVAC expert can determine your home\u2019s particular needs for proper heating, and then match you with the right system to give you the best comfort possible.
