Heating Installation in Jacksonville, FL
Building a home, adding space or heating a room that never had it? We help you choose between a furnace and a heat pump, size it with a professional load calculation, and install Ruud or Bryant equipment.
When You Need a New Heating Installation
This page is about putting heat where there wasn't any before. If you're swapping out a system you already have, our heating replacement page covers that.
- 🐾
New construction
Custom homes and residential builds. Our New Construction HVAC page explains how we work with homeowners, homebuilders and general contractors.
- 🐾
Additions and remodels
More square footage, or a new layout, changes what your heating has to cover. Our Remodel HVAC page walks through the options.
- 🐾
Converted spaces
Garages, bonus rooms and enclosed porches that were never heated may need their own solution, or a connection to the main system.
Furnace or Heat Pump?
There isn't one right answer for every home. We'll explain the tradeoffs based on the house, how you use it and what's already there.
- 🐾
Heat pump
One system heats and cools by moving heat in or out. Northeast Florida winters are mild, which suits that approach, and many heat pump systems include electric backup heat for colder mornings. See our heat pump installation page for more.
- 🐾
Gas furnace
Needs natural gas service at the home. It heats with a burner and pairs with a central AC for cooling.
- 🐾
Electric furnace
No gas needed. It heats with electric elements and also pairs with a central AC. Our furnace installation page compares gas and electric in more depth.
Sizing a System for Space That's New
With new construction or an addition, there's no old system to copy, and copying one is a poor way to size anyway. A professional load calculation looks at the space itself, so the heating and the cooling that go with it fit what the home actually needs.
