Why Make the Switch From Gas to Electric Heating in Your Home?

If you’ve been considering swapping out your gas heater for an electric one but aren’t sure it’s worth the investment, think again! While gas is typically seen as a cheaper option for heating, the benefits of making the switch from gas to electric are endless. This is especially true for homes in Yakima and the Tri-Cities area, as Washington has the lowest electricity costs in the nation.

How To Switch From Gas to Electric

When you’ve decided to switch out your gas heater for an electric system, the first step of the process is to hire a professional technician to remove your existing unit. From there, you will need to have your home disconnected from the gas line, and all of the appropriate electrical wiring will need to be installed. After all electrical upgrades are completed, such as a change in voltage, the technician will install your new electric heater and have it fitted to operate with your existing ductwork. Lastly, your technician will inspect and test your unit to ensure all of its components are working as intended.

Benefits of Switching to Electric Heating

There are many benefits that come with converting your gas heater to an electric heater. Some of the perks you can expect from an electric heater include:

• Electric systems are more eco-friendly as they don’t require burning fossil fuels to operate.
• Because electric heaters run on electricity and not gas, they are much easier to clean and maintain.
• Electric heaters are typically much safer to operate than gas heaters, as there is no risk of a gas leak or carbon monoxide.
