We take a number of factors into account, such as whether you have time for a ductwork system and your budget.

Optimal Heater Sizing for Sterling Homes and Businesses
Sizing a heater is one of the most important factors in the process of heating replacement or installations. We take the time to inspect your home, your current system, and learn about your unique comfort needs to ensure that we are installing the right sized heater. An undersized heater will not be able to heat your home efficiently while a too large heater can be ineffective and run up your energy costs. Should you decide to replace your heating system, allow us to help. Our company serves home and business owners throughout Fairfax and Loudoun Counties.
5 Signs You Need Your Heater Replacement
1. Poor indoor air quality - Old heaters, particular gas units, tend to pump out very dry heat as they age. If you notice an uptick in dry skin or wilting plants then consult our Sterling heating replacement specialists because your unit could be on its last legs.
2. Old age - On average, heating units live for about 15-30 years. If your unit is older than 15 years, you should at least get the opinion of a professional before throwing more money at repairs.
3. Repair after repair - While a single repair might be cheaper than heating replacement, at some point the umpteenth heating repair will cost you more when you consider that your unit could be dying and the replacement cost is inevitable.
4. Utility bills on the rise - As heaters get older, they become less efficient. While this loss of efficiency might not show up in your indoor air environment, it could show up in your monthly utility bill.
5. Our HVAC replacement formula - When deciding if you should repair or replace your HVAC units, our Sterling heating replacement experts use the following formula: if the (cost of repair) multiplied by the (age of the unit in years) is greater than (the cost of replacement) then you should replace your unit.

Commonly Asked Questions
What is the AFUE rating, and why is it important?
AFUE stands for Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency and measures how efficiently your heater converts fuel into heat. The higher the AFUE, the more energy-efficient the system is. Choosing a high-AFUE system can save you money in the long run by reducing your energy consumption.
What are the benefits of zoning with my new heating system?
Zoning allows you to control the temperature in different areas of your home or business separately. This can save energy by only heating rooms that are in use and can create a more comfortable environment by avoiding temperature inconsistencies between rooms.
