Frequently Asked Questions
Are oil furnaces becoming obsolete in Maine?
Oil is still one of the most common fuel sources in Maine, though many homeowners are moving toward heat pumps. We'll give you an honest assessment of whether a new oil furnace or a heat pump makes more financial sense for your situation.
How efficient are modern oil furnaces?
Modern oil furnaces reach 85–87% AFUE — significantly better than older units. However, cold-climate heat pumps achieve 200–400% efficiency, which is why many homeowners are making the switch.
Can you replace my oil furnace with a heat pump?
A heat pump may be an option, but system design and operating costs depend on the home, equipment, weather, energy rates, installation, and use. A project assessment can compare suitable approaches.
Do you service oil furnaces after installation?
Yes — we provide ongoing service and maintenance for all oil furnaces we install.
