5 Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Furnace
October 2024
Your furnace is the heart of your home's comfort during cold months. At Werley, we understand how crucial a well-functioning heating system is for your family's well-being. While regular maintenance can extend your furnace's life, there comes a time when replacement becomes the most practical option. Here are five key indicators that it might be time to invest in a new furnace:
1. Age of Your Furnace
Most furnaces have a lifespan of 15-20 years with proper maintenance. If your unit is approaching or has surpassed this age range, it's smart to start considering a replacement. Older furnaces become less efficient and may require expensive repairs as parts become scarce. A new, energy-efficient installation from Werley can provide better performance and long-term savings.
2. Rising Energy Bills
Despite consistent usage, have you noticed a steady increase in heating costs? This could be a sign that your furnace is losing efficiency. As furnaces age, they often require more energy to produce the same heat. Modern furnaces boast higher efficiency ratings, leading to significant savings on utility bills. Let Werley help you choose an energy-efficient model that keeps your home warm without breaking the bank.
3. Frequent Repairs
If you call for repairs more often than usual, replacing your furnace might be the more cost-effective solution. Continuous breakdowns disrupt your comfort and can add up quickly in repair costs. Werley's expert technicians can assess whether a new installation would be more economical in the long run, potentially saving you from unexpected repair expenses.
4. Carbon Monoxide Concerns
Carbon monoxide leaks are a serious safety hazard often associated with older or malfunctioning furnaces. If you've experienced any symptoms like dizziness, nausea, or headaches, or your carbon monoxide detector has alerted you, it's crucial to address the issue immediately. Werley prioritizes your safety – we can inspect your current system and, if necessary, replace it with a modern unit equipped with advanced safety features.
5. Uneven Heating
Does your home have noticeable hot and cold spots? Uneven heating often indicates your furnace struggles to distribute heat effectively. This affects your comfort and puts unnecessary strain on your system. A new, properly sized furnace can ensure consistent warmth throughout your home, enhancing comfort and efficiency.
