Here are the types of systems we specialize in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Furnaces \u2013 one of the most traditional types of heating systems, today\u2019s furnaces are widely used and highly energy efficient. This type of heating system can be very convenient if you already have natural gas piped into your home.<\/li>\n<li>Heat pumps \u2013 heat pumps are very energy efficient for a number of reasons, one of which is that they do not need any kind of fossil fuel to operate. They also offer your home cooling in the summer in addition to heating in the winter.<\/li>\n<li>Ductless heating \u2013 ductless heating systems use heat pump technology so you also get cooling with this system. If you don\u2019t have ductwork, or don\u2019t want to pay for the expense of ductwork, you may want to consider this type of system.<\/li>\n<li>Radiant heating \u2013 radiant heating can come in a few forms, with the most popular being radiant floor heating. You can also choose from two different types of radiant heating: hydronic (hot water) or electric.<\/li>\n<li>Geothermal systems \u2013 geothermal systems take advantage of the latent heat in your yard\u2019s ground below the frost line and use it to heat your home; in the summer, the soil acts as a heat sink as the warm air from your indoors is transferred to the ground loop for release.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>As you can see, there are a number of heating system options available for your home in Eugene, OR.
