Furnace Types
Single-Stage Furnaces
Your furnace and fan is either on or off. Pretty simple, huh?
A salesperson can say that a single-stage furnace has multiple speeds. Why?
Every home has a unique heat load that is supposed to be calculated for you by
your heating and air conditioning
contractor. The single-stage furnace does have optional speeds, but it is
hard wired to one.
Two-Stage Furnaces
Two-stage furnaces are more efficient and more effective at
heating your Syracuse area home. Furnaces are like light bulbs, they operate
better if they are turned on and left on. If you flick a light switch on and
off, over and over, that bulb is toast. The same goes for furnaces. Running at
65% for 9 minutes is better than 100% for 3 minutes several times an hour. It
uses less gas and is easier on the machine.
Multi-Speed Furnaces
In single-stage furnaces, if you want your fan on for
circulation - the fan is always on high. It is the only option. Not only is
that hard on the utility bill, but a fan on high means the warm air is moving
fast - warm air moving fast creates a cool breeze. In variable furnaces, the
fan turns over slowly to maintain air circulation while being easy on the
utility bill. By the way, most air cleaners and filtration devices are only
active when the furnace blower is on. So the best way to utilize these
accessories is to have a variable speed blower. Switching its blower fan from
a/c current to d/c current only draws 1/10 the electricity.
