Christmas is supposed to be the joyous time of the year, but what if your furnace suddenly stopped running? It’s a total let-down knowing that your heating system will give you chills at night. All Seasons Conditioning have compiled the top signs that tell that your furnace needs replacement:
Inconsistent Temperature
Does your furnace provide the right temperature? Though uneven or inconsistent temperatures can be due to poor insulation, improper ductwork, or an incorrect thermostat, an old furnace may no longer work the way it should
Your Furnace is Over 15 Years
If your furnace already reached its full life expectancy, then do not expect it to operate as it did years ago. As a matter of fact, according to Energy Star, you need to replace your heating system if it’s already over 15 years. It would be best to replace it with an Energy Star rated heating system that is 15% more efficient.
Increased Energy Bill
Have you ever wonder why your energy bill is increasing even if you are not regularly using it? An increased energy bill also indicates that your comfort system is working hard. Though you can have it checked or tuned-up to determine the problems and fix it, if your heating bill is still increasing, then you need to think twice,
Frequent Repairs
Usually, most furnace repairs happen during its last two years. Just like old cars, your heating system will always act up. As a result, you will need to have it serviced often. The cost can be higher for a furnace with frequent repairs. If you add the cost, you will be surprised that it is costlier, so buying a new one is the right decision.
Strange Noises
Have you heard any banging, ratting, or popping noises? Old furnaces usually make these noises, which can indicate that there’s something wrong with your system. You may need to check if your blower is turning on and off often or your furnace isn’t blowing cold air? If yes, then it’s time to replace your furnace.
