“Is it Time to Replace My Heating System?”
If your furnace is 10-15 years old, it’s already reached its average lifespan. Hot water boilers are built to last longer – up to 20 years, in fact.
But here’s the thing: no matter how new or old your heating system might be, it won’t last forever. Should you be thinking about replacing it? It’s an idea at least worth considering if you start noticing any of these warning signs:
Rising Energy Costs
Heating system gradually lose their operating and energy efficiency as they age. If, for example, your system was 80% efficient when new and it’s now about 10 years old, chances are it’s operating at no better than 60% energy efficiency now. Replacing your system before it breaks down completely will cut your energy costs significantly and, over time, cover the replacement cost.
Mounting Repair Bills
You know how they say good things come in threes? Well, bad things have a way of piling up on you too, like one heating repair bill after another. If that’s been your recent misfortune, sooner or later you need to ask yourself: is this old heating system worth even one more repair bill? It may not be.
Thermostat Malfunction
The problem with your heating system may not be with your heating system at all. Maybe the fault lies with your thermostat. If so, you’ll breathe a sigh of relief when you see our guaranteed upfront repair quote.
