What Are Your Heater Options?

October 10, 2022
Ductless Heater Installation Milwaukee

When the cold weather hits, are you going to be ready to keep your home comfortably warm? If you aren’t confident about the ability of your heater to keep up, or you are still trying to do battle using a space heater, then it is time for an upgrade.

First things first, you’ll need to be able to narrow down your options so you can more easily choose the next system for your heating installation in Brookfield, WI. We’ll help you learn what you need to know so you can make this choice with less worry.

What Are Your System Options?

Knowing more about your options can make selecting your next heater much easier. Make sure to talk to a technician on our team after you learn more here.

Furnaces

Furnaces are a type of forced-air heater. These systems use either natural gas or electrical resistance to produce the heat that is blown throughout your house. They are highly powerful and highly effective without being too expensive to run. 

Furnaces also come with that added decision of figuring out which energy source to use. This can depend on the cost of electricity in your area and also on whether you have a natural gas connection already or not. 

Boilers

Boilers are the heating systems that are used to power hydronic radiant heaters. With pipes that feed in-wall or under-floor lines, these systems warm water that is fed through the house to radiate heat. This creates a feeling closer to sitting in the sunshine while a forced-air system creates the feeling akin to a warm breeze.

Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are another type of forced air heating system. Rather than creating hot air though, these systems use refrigerant to absorb heat from the air outside and move it indoors. This is a highly energy-efficient way to warm up your house. Plus, as an added bonus, heat pumps can also be used as air conditioners in the summer. That means if you need both a heater and an AC, a heat pump is likely to be a great solution. 

Ductless Systems

Last but certainly not least, you may want to consider a ductless HVAC system. These systems operate using heat pump technology. The key difference is that they don’t need ducts to distribute the air. Ductless systems are comprised of multiple air handlers that are installed throughout your home and are connected to your outdoor condenser unit. This setup allows them to work without ducts, making them highly efficient and an ideal match for smaller homes that don’t have space for ducts.

Choosing Your Next Heater

Choosing a heater for your home isn’t necessarily easy, but knowing your options help. It also helps to know what the deciding factors are such as…

  • What is your budget?
  • What financing options work best?
  • Do you have a natural gas connection?
  • How much square footage is in your home?
  • How much space do you have for a heating system?
  • Do you have ductwork?

When you are ready to get started on your installation, come to our team. We’ll make the decision easier and provide timely, quality service too.

Anthony and Otilio did an excellent job. They cut the static pressure in my HVAC system in half! They were fast and efficient and left the place as clean as they found it. The price was a bit more than I expected but it was high quality work.

This place was amazing! Had our ducts cleaned by them and that went good. They were professional and clean. Showed us pictures of the before and after work. We then decided to get new air conditioner and heater for our house. The person who scheduled us, Justin, was very professional and answered all of our questions. He also strived to get us the best deal and explained all our options well. We scheduled for the new products the next day and the workers Antonio and Otilio were really good! Antonio explained every step of the process and answered all our questions. Once they were done Antonio did an awesome job of showing us the new system and explained the thermostat well. Overall me and my wife are very satisfied with this company and would highly recommend.

The two technicians Alejandro and Joshua were on time, professional, respectful of my home, were willing and waiting to answer any questions I had, didn’t leave until the heating and cooling components of my furnace and air were operational. They also made sure I understood the functions of the newly installed thermostat. This was a great experience for me and I would definitely recommend Capital heating and cooling to anyone.

We had an amazing experience with Capitol heating, cooling and electrical while having a new furnace/AC installed and air ducks cleaned. All of the employees with Capital were professional, responsible and respectful. We were especially impressed with our experience with Anthony and Otilio’s installation of the furnace and AC. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality HVAC service and products for your home.

Have had up and down quality from this company over the past three years. One incident created an extremely dangerous situation for my family. The last straw came when they never showed for an appointment. When I called to find out why, they claim to have called me and emailed me. I have no email or calls or messages from them as they claim to have “in their records”.I’ve given them two stars instead of one for two reasons: James, who installed my furnace and AC, and Logan, who tried to fix my AC gave me an honest assessment of the situation. If I had been able to work with people like these two upstanding men in all my interactions with this company, I’d still be a customer. If you chose to go with Capital for your needs, just make sure to request James for your installs and Logan as your tech. They do 10 stars out of 5 quality work. Thank you James and Logan! I hope you get well deserved raises!!Updated 8/23/23:I gave Capital another chance after a year since I had some a/c issues that were covered by warranty. This is not the same company I worked with in the past. Between Anthony and Skandar, we had unbelievably thorough work, explained every detail, corrected some previous by errors techs who are no longer with the company, and gave me the confidence to change my review to 5 out of 5.

I had Arno and James at my house today to troubleshoot my A/C. They were both very professional and knowledgeable. It didn’t take long for them to diagnose the problems and come up with a action plan for repairs. They explained and showed me the all the issues. They make a Great team! I highly recommend using them for your A/C and heating needs.

Our Central Air stopped working, called a different company, they were unable to repair, and replacement was 2 weeks wait. Called Capital and they arrived within an hour, new Central Air installed within 2 hours. Amazing service! Quick to respond, polite and professional. I will recommend them to everyone!

I had my AC go out. They were quick to respond. What I like how they were honest with my situation. I worked in construction for years and know that they were not going to sell me what I needed. Installation was great and super friendly.Overall a great job.
