Should I Repair or Replace My Furnace?

While no one can predict just when your furnace will go out, there are a couple of signs that a furnace has to be replaced.

Furnace Age

Furnaces typically last around 12–17 years. If the heater is 15 years old (or more), it has a greater possibility of failing. You should start to prepare for replacement by researching new furnaces promptly.

Frequent Repairs

You should opt for HVAC replacement if the heating needs repairs more consistently.

Larger Energy Bills

Old furnaces are less efficient. If yours hasn’t undergone preventative furnace maintenance, you risk losing even more furnace efficiency and dealing with increasing energy costs.

Inconsistent Heating

An old HVAC system can struggle to properly heat your home. Leaky ductwork and a dirty furnace filter can also cause issues.

Three Advantages of a New Furnace

While furnace installation may seem daunting, new furnaces can boast efficiency older systems can’t contend with. In addition, you’ll be able to relax knowing you won’t need to replace your system for years to come.

A new furnace should provide:

1. Better Efficiency

Todays furnaces are highly dependable and provide exceptionally better efficiency ratings than equipment from 20 years ago.

2. Quieter Operation

A newer furnace includes the latest in quiet operation technology. You won’t always notice when it switches on.

3. Peace of Mind

Modern HVAC technology ensures your furnace will live longer and run with better energy efficiency. With our service agreements, you’ll never lose out on an important annual tune-up again.

Furnace Installation: Frequently Asked Questions

Proper sizing is based on factors like home size, building envelope, window efficiency, layout, and regional weather. Many contractors use a Manual J-style calculation to avoid problems caused by oversizing, such as uneven comfort.
Many installations are completed in a single day, but timing can vary depending on ductwork modifications, utility connections, local requirements, and whether you’re changing system type. Your installer should provide a project timeline before work begins.
Sometimes your existing thermostat works fine, but upgrades may be recommended for compatibility—especially with modulating systems or advanced features. Your contractor can confirm control requirements and recommend the best option.
Before the appointment, it helps to clear a path to the furnace, keep pets in another room, and have someone available for questions. After installation, the team should verify safety controls, show you how to use it, and explain filter replacement.
A newer furnace can improve efficiency, but savings depend on how old your system is, thermostat habits, air leaks, and home insulation. A technician can help you compare efficiency ratings and expected performance for your home.
