What Type of Heating System Do You Have?

I don't know, don't ask me!

 Many homeowners may not be completely aware of the type of heating system they have. Either they haven’t needed to find out because no repairs have been needed, or they don't know how to tell which type of system is installed in their home. Here are some great ways you can know which type of heating system that you have:

•   If your indoor unit is hooked up to a flue pipe(which is that big metal tube that runs vertically out of your furnace), you either have an oil or gas furnace. If you are paying a monthly gas bill, you most likely have a gas furnace.​
•   Does your thermostat say, “heat” and “emergency heat”? If it does you have a heat pump.
•   If you are not paying a monthly gas bill or purchasing oil, then your furnace is electric.

These are just a few simple questions to ask or things to look for so you can give your HVAC Technician correct information if you need repairs or an estimate to replace.
