Signs Your Furnace Needs to Be Replaced

At times it can make sense to repair your furnace instead of replacing it, especially if the repairs are minor. However, eventually it will make more sense for you to install a new unit. Some signs that can signal you need a new system can include:

If your unit is older and is nearing the end of its lifespan.

If your unit is no longer properly heating your home.

If your unit is losing efficiency, resulting in higher utility bills.

If your unit is cracked. This can indicate a major problem like a cracked heat exchanger, which can cause a carbon monoxide leak.

If your unit needs multiple — or costly — repairs.

Common Furnace Problems

Occasionally, you might encounter issues with your furnace. Some of the more common problems can include:

Problems due to a lack of maintenance. Failing to schedule regular tune-ups with a professional at least once a year can lead to issues with your unit.

Issues caused by dirty filters. Failing to replace your filters regularly can cause dust, dirt and debris to accumulate on the filters, resulting in poor indoor air quality and other issues with your system.

Wear and tear from aging. As your system ages, it can lose efficiency and encounter other issues tied to the unit getting older and its parts wearing down.

Malfunctioning thermostat. If your home is not reaching and staying at the temperature set on your thermostat, it can signal an issue that needs to be inspected by a professional.

Disrupted airflow. If your unit doesn’t have adequate airflow it can overheat.

Serious issues like a carbon monoxide leak. One of the most dangerous issues your unit can have is a carbon monoxide leak. This can occur if there are cracks in your unit. If you suspect you have a leak you should evacuate your property immediately and call for help.

When to Consider Replacing Your Furnace

Over time, furnaces can become less efficient, leading to higher utility bills and decreased comfort in your home. If your furnace is more than 15 years old, it may be time to consider replacing it. Older furnaces can also develop cracks in the heat exchanger, which can cause dangerous carbon monoxide leaks.

Another sign that it’s time to replace your furnace is if it’s no longer able to maintain a consistent temperature throughout your home. If you notice hot and cold spots or have to constantly adjust your thermostat, it may be an indication that your furnace is struggling to keep up.

Improving Efficiency and Comfort with a New Furnace

When you install a new, energy-efficient furnace, you’ll notice a significant difference in your utility bills. Modern furnaces are designed to use less energy while still providing the same level of heating. This can lead to substantial savings on your monthly energy costs.

In addition to improved efficiency, a new furnace can also help to eliminate hot and cold spots in your home. Advanced features like zoning and variable-speed blowers allow new furnaces to distribute heat more evenly, ensuring a comfortable temperature throughout your living space.
