Central Heating Systems

Here at Mr. Reliable Heating and Air, we specialize in all types of central heating systems. Depending on the type of system you have, you will require different maintenance routines and schedules, skilled repair techniques, and special replacement parts.

Additionally, if you are planning to replace or install a heating system, your ideal choice may depend on the size and layout of your home, ease of use and maintenance, or current and long-term budget. Our technicians can provide the expertise to help with these tough decisions.

The most common heating systems of this type in Houston, TX, and the surrounding areas homes are:

• Forced Air System: A forced-air system takes cool air from inside your house, transfers it to the furnace to be heated, and then sends the warm air back into your house through ducts. If your HVAC system includes an air conditioner and a furnace, then you very well may have a forced-air system. These types of systems can use natural gas, propane, oil, coal, wood, or electricity to run the furnace. In some older homes, you may still find a gravity furnace system.
• Radiant Heating: Radiant heating works by heating flooring rather than pushing warm or hot air out of air ducts. Most systems use natural gas, propane, or electric boiler in order to heat water. They move the hot water throughout your home, typically via tubes in the flooring. Other systems utilize electrical wiring instead of hot water installed under the flooring.
• Traditional Boiler: A central boiler works similarly to radiant heating. It uses a boiler to heat steam or hot water and then runs the steam or water through pipes to specific radiator units in each room.
• Heat Pump: A heat pump system extracts heat from outdoor air and delivers it into your home. These systems rely on refrigerant and electricity to transfer heat. Furthermore, they can switch between cooling and heating, depending on the season. For instance, in the hot summers of Houston, TX, you can count on your heat pump system to extract hot air from inside your home and push it outdoors.
• Electric Resistance Heating: Electric resistance heating is not typically used as a central heating source but rather a supplemental heating source. Yet, you may still find them in small rooms and basements. Some apartment buildings use them as a primary source of heat as well.
