Heating Costs Over Time
The cost of the electricity to operate an electric furnace is more expensive than a gas furnace, but the operating costs are spread out over the lifespan of the appliance and are not up front costs.
Lifespan
The lifespan of an electric furnace is approximately between 18 and 20 years so you will not need to purchase a replacement unit for many years. Another benefit is that electric models are very quiet and durable. In addition, the installation is usually much quicker, which also translates to a lower initial investment price.
