Gas Furnaces
From skiing the fresh powder at Mt. Bachelor to snowmobiling the open trails at Deschutes National Forest, Central Oregon comes alive in the winter.
We embrace the cold, soak in the sun, and enjoy our scenic landscapes. But at night, as the skies clear and the temperatures dive, we turn up our furnaces and bask in the glowing warmth.
When the time comes to replace your older furnace with a newer model, you can count on Diversified Heating & Cooling to find the perfect home heating system for your budget and lifestyle. Our team of professionals will calculate the square footage of your Oregon home and how well each room is insulated to determine the right-size furnace for your needs.
What You Need to Know About Gas Furnaces
Most furnaces in Sunriver, OR, run on natural gas because it is widely available and tends to be the most economical choice. A properly maintained gas furnace should operate for 15 to 30 years before you need to replace it.
You will want to know the annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) rating of your furnace. An energy-efficient furnace will have an AFUE rating of 95 percent or higher, meaning it can convert 95 percent of the energy it consumes into heat.
The higher the AFUE rating, the more money you save on monthly utility bills. Energy-efficient furnaces also help the environment since they emit a lesser amount of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Keep in mind that maintaining your ductwork and sealing the windows and doors in your home are key factors in energy-efficiency savings. If your home is poorly insulated, your furnace will struggle.
How Much Money Can a New Furnace Save You?
Our AFUE energy savings calculator can help determine how much you could save on your utility bills. Simply enter your current unit's AFUE value and compare it to a newer, more efficient unit. You can even customize it to better match your home's system for a more accurate calculation.

“Super technician. So knowledgeable and kind. Fixed the problem in no time. The house is toasty again! So thankful for his visit today.”
“Zach did a great job and was very personable. He shared with us what he was going to do, he performed the maintenance and gave us an update on what he found. He was also very good with our dog! Thanks Zach for a job well done!”
“Excellent, knowledgeable and friendly service!”
“We have had our entire HVAC system maintained each year since taking ownership of our home. Also, the technician has always serviced our gas fireplace. The maintenance gives us piece of mind in knowing our system is in good shape and will provide good service through four seasons. The technician, Leah, let us know ahead of time so we could have everything ready. Leah went right to work on our Gas Furnace and cleaned the components and changed the filter we had provided. She cleaned and checked our AC condensing unit and moved on to our fireplace. She somewhat disassembled the fake logs and cleaned each piece thoroughly. In all her work she cleaned up after herself. Leah was both professional and personable at the same time. It is such a pleasure to have good folks like Leah representing a company like Diversified Heating and Cooling. The entire maintenance was done in good time and without any inconvenience to Susie and I. Thank you Leah and Diversified. Bradley”
