A furnace is a whole-house heater that distributes hot air with a ductwork system. A large fan in the furnace blows heated air through supply ducts to be distributed throughout the living space.
At the same time, the fan pulls cooler air back to the furnace through return ducts, so the air can be reheated.
Most furnaces are designed to burn a specific type of fuel. Multi-fuel furnaces are an exception, and can typically burn two types of fuel.
For many homeowners, the type of furnace installed in your home depends on the type of fuel that is available locally. However, it is possible to switch fuel types when installing a new furnace. For example, you could replace an oil-fired furnace with a furnace that burns natural gas or propane, if these fuels are available locally.
Heating and cooling systems are the biggest energy expense in most homes, accounting for 40%-50% of total energy expenses. It's important to understand that just because you buy a new furnace, doesn't mean it's high efficiency; just like you can buy a new car that gets you lower gas mileage doesn't make it a hybrid. The cost of the fuel it takes to run the furnace during its lifespan is huge compared to the cost of the furnace itself. It is well worth it to install the highest efficiency furnace you can get. It costs a bit more, but it will pay for itself many times over.
