Do You Need a New Furnace? Signs It’s Time to Replace
If your furnace is over 10-15 years old, it may be time for a replacement. Here are some signs that indicate you need a new furnace:
1. Rising Energy Bills
Older furnaces lose efficiency over time, causing higher heating costs. A new, energy-efficient model can lower your monthly utility bills.
2. Frequent Repairs
If you’re constantly calling for furnace repairs, replacing it could be the more cost-effective option in the long run.
3. Inconsistent Heating
Cold spots and uneven heating throughout your home may indicate a failing furnace that can no longer distribute heat properly.
4. Unusual Noises or Odors
Strange banging, rattling, or burning smells coming from your furnace are signs of internal wear and tear.
5. Carbon Monoxide Leaks
If your furnace has a cracked heat exchanger, it could be leaking carbon monoxide—a serious health hazard that requires immediate replacement.
Choosing the Right Furnace for Your Home
When selecting a new furnace, it’s important to consider factors such as size, efficiency, and fuel type to ensure you get the best system for your home.
Furnace Types We Install
1. Gas Furnaces
Gas furnaces are the most common heating systems, offering affordable operation and efficient heating in cold climates.
2. Electric Furnaces
Ideal for homes without gas lines, electric furnaces are low-maintenance and highly durable, though they can have higher energy costs.
3. Heat Pumps
A great alternative to traditional furnaces, heat pumps provide both heating and cooling while using less energy.
4. Oil Furnaces
Less common but still used in some areas, oil furnaces provide strong heating power for homes without access to natural gas.
Understanding Furnace Efficiency Ratings (AFUE)
The efficiency of a furnace is measured by its Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating. The higher the AFUE, the more efficient the furnace.
- 80% AFUE: Standard efficiency
- 90-98% AFUE: High efficiency, reducing energy costs significantly
