Don’t Forget Your Ducts
Unfortunately, many homeowners purchase a brand new furnace expecting to reap big savings on their utility bills, only to see little or no actual savings.
Why? Because their ducts and insulation are sub-par.
Experts estimate that in the average home, 25 to 40 percent of the heat generated by the furnace is lost during its passage through the duct system. At Gulf Stream Heating & Air Conditioning, we are well aware of this fact. That’s why when we install a new furnace in the Macomb & Oakland Counties, we check the ducts thoroughly and repair any leaks we may find. Our meticulous installation process enables you to enjoy the high performance your new furnace is capable of.
