A lot of the time, people believe that installing more than one furnace might be best when they own a large house. However, as many Denver HVAC experts will tell you, that’s not necessarily true, and sometimes an unbalanced system using two or more furnaces can actually waste more energy than you can even imagine.

A common choice among business owners is to put together two furnaces to heat a large hall or office, when a standard size furnace can’t provide the adequate output. While this can work sometimes in the case of large commercial spaces, it doesn’t work so well in a residential home. The main reason behind this is that the twin furnaces will create a higher output than you’d need even on a mild fall afternoon, while wasting too much energy running overtime during cold winter days.

In most cases, the best solution is to hire an HVAC contractor to measure your home and establish a better configuration of using a single, central furnace with the right ducts and the appropriate layout. Adding a good thermostat to the mix will also improve on the situation, and you’ll soon find that you can adjust the temperature in your home perfectly without having to spend a lot of money on a double furnace system.
