Is It Better to Repair or Replace My Furnace?

While no one can predict just when your furnace will break down, there are a few clues that the furnace should be replaced.

The Age of the Furnace

Heating systems generally last around 12–17 years. If the heater is 15 years old (or older), there is a higher risk of breaking down. You should start to prepare for replacement by learning more about new furnaces promptly.

Frequent Repairs

You should opt for HVAC installation if yours needs repairs more consistently.

Larger Energy Bills

Older furnaces are not as efficient. If yours hasn’t undergone preventative furnace maintenance, you risk losing even more furnace efficiency and having higher energy costs.

Spotty Heating

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

Three Benefits of a New Furnace

While furnace installation can feel overwhelming, new furnaces can boast efficiency worn down systems can’t compete 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 can offer:

1. Increased Efficiency

Modern furnaces are extremely resilient and provide much better efficiency ratings compared to equipment from 20 years ago.

2. Less Noise During Operation

Modern furnaces offer the latest in quiet operation technology. You might not notice when it starts running.

3. Peace of Mind

Modern HVAC technology ensures your heater will last longer and run with increased energy efficiency. With one of our service agreements, you’ll never forget an important yearly tune-up again.

Frequently Asked Questions: Furnace Installation

Proper sizing is based on factors like square footage, building envelope, window efficiency, ceiling height, and local climate. Many contractors use a load 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 venting changes, utility connections, permits and inspections, 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 two-stage 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 test operation, show you how to use it, and explain maintenance needs.
A newer furnace can improve efficiency, but savings depend on how old your system is, thermostat habits, ductwork condition, and home insulation. A technician can help you compare efficiency ratings and expected performance for your home.
