A furnace operates by heating air within the furnace unit and then circulating it through your home through a blower and HVAC air ducts. The warm air is transported through vents in the rooms of your house to keep you warm. The furnace provides heat for a majority of the year and is an integral part of your complete home comfort system. The Service & Installation technicians at Schumer Bros. Heating, Cooling & Plumbing have the expertise needed to tackle any furnace job.
There are many ways to heat your home and radiant heating with a boiler is one of the most fuel and cost efficient systems. A good boiler will last many years. Boilers are durable and capable of withstanding years of use before breaking down. Through careful HVAC system maintenance by Schumer Brothers, you can be assured that when a replacement boiler or part is needed, Schumer Brothers will be there to fix the heating system. If you think your boiler is in need of service, contact Schumer Brothers to request a repair or schedule an estimate for a new boiler system.
Heat pumps are one of the most efficient heating systems available, they allow you to stay warm in the winter and cool all summer. In effect, all air has energy in it, even when the temperature is cold. A heat pump works by drawing the energy from that air and exchanging it through condensers into the air in your home. Heated air is then circulated through your house via series of HVAC ducts. If are you are interested in a heat pump installation assessment, or if you already have and in need of routine maintenance or repairs, call Schumer Brothers today!

Central heating systems have a primary heating appliance, such as a furnace, typically located in your basement or garage. All furnaces consist of four main components:
- Burners that deliver and burn fuel
- Heat exchangers
- A blower
- A flue that acts as an exhaust for gaseous by-products
Depending on your situation, region, and needs, you can choose from heating systems running on either gas or oil as fuel, or a hybrid packaged system that can use both fuel types.

Combustion gases are generated by the burners in your furnace and passed over a heat exchanger. Air from your home blows across the heat exchanger to be warmed it is then blown through a system of ducts to distribute around your home.
During warm seasons, your heating system works with your central air conditioning. Air is cooled as it’s blown over your air conditioning unit’s cooling coil often attached to the exhaust of the furnace and then sent over the same air ducts throughout your home.

A heat pump is an all-in-one heating and cooling system. It heats a home in winter and then cools it in summer. A typical heat pump installation consists of two parts: an indoor unit called an air handler and an outdoor unit similar to a central air conditioner. A compressor circulates refrigerant that absorbs and releases heat as it travels between the indoor and outdoor units.

What kind of magic does a heat pump perform to both heat and cool your air? Think of a heat pump as a heat juggler. Even in air that’s below freezing temperatures, heat energy is present. When it’s cold outside, a heat pump extracts this outside heat and transfers it inside. When it’s warm outside, it reverses directions and acts like an air conditioner, removing heat from your home.
One advantage of a heat pump is that it moves heat instead of generating heat, giving you more energy efficiency. Also, it is powered by electricity so you can save substantially on fuel consumption.
Note that heat pumps are best for moderate climates, keeping homes warm even when temperatures drop into the low 20s. A supplemental heating source may be needed for lower temperatures.

Packaged systems offer a more minimalist approach to heating and cooling. The system contains the same components as your typical split-system—the evaporator, condenser, compressor, among others—all working together in one space-saving unit. Packaged units are typically installed outdoors at ground level or on the roof, making them versatile for both horizontal and down-flow designs.

- Packaged Heat Pumps
- Packaged Air Conditioners
- Packaged Dual Fuel
Packaged systems have been carefully engineered to give you all of your heating and cooling equipment in a single cabinet. Depending on your weather situation and energy needs, you can choose from four types of packaged systems, each working differently:
- Heat pump packaged systems that both heat and cool your home
- Air conditioner packaged systems that offer cooling solutions for warmer climates
- Hybrid fuel packaged systems that work as a heat pump, but can also provide gas heating for greater flexibility
- Gas/electric packaged systems that can switch from electric air conditioning to gas heating to give you more fuel options
Schumer Brothers can help you choose the cooling system that is right for you.
