Good to Know: Electric Furnace Facts & Tips

  1. Are electric furnaces energy-efficient in BC?
    Yes. With BC’s clean hydroelectric power, electric heating is low-emission, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly, especially when paired with a heat pump system. That said, electric furnaces are essentially 100% efficient like baseboard heaters, which is far less efficient than cold climate heat pump options. Electric resistance furnaces have their place, but are not necessarily right for most people.
  2. Can I replace my oil furnace with an electric one?
    Absolutely. Many homeowners are switching from oil or propane to electric systems to reduce fuel costs and emissions, and rebates are available to help with the transition when integrating heat pump options.
  3. Is an electric furnace enough on its own?
    Yes, electric furnaces are powerful enough to heat a full home. However, for maximum energy efficiency and year-round comfort, many homeowners choose to combine them with a heat pump.
  4. How long does an electric furnace last?
    A quality electric furnace like Daikin’s can last 20 years or more with proper maintenance, offering consistent, clean performance over time.
  5. Are there rebates for switching to electric heat?
    Rebates may be available when upgrading from fossil fuels to electric heating systems, especially when installing a qualifying heat pump. We’ll help you access every incentive you’re eligible for.
