When to Replace Your Furnace

Are you worried if you should repair or replace your furnace? Allen Service can provide you with an honest answer to ease all of your central heating installation worries. If we feel we can improve your unit, then we will never push an unnecessary replacement on your family. However, several factors may require the purchase of a new unit and it is important to understand that furnaces have a shelf life. Typically, with regular maintenance, a furnace can last 15 to 18 years. If yours is in that range, it may be time to replace it. Some signs of furnace failure may include:

• Rising Energy Bills: Let’s say your typical winter gas or electric bill is $100. That bill includes your furnace, and everything powered by gas or electricity. If the bill suddenly skyrockets to $150 or $200, then an inefficient, aging, or broken furnace could be to blame. Some fluctuations in monthly bills are normal, but not to that extent.
• Uneven Heating: You’re comfortable and toasty reading a book in your living room, but you want to put on a pair of socks. So, you walk to the bedroom. Does it seem noticeably colder in there than in the living room? Furnaces should heat all rooms equally, with little to no variances. Cold spots are a tell-tale sign of a failing furnace.
• Noisiness: Is your furnace waking you up with banging and clanking sounds? It shouldn’t be. No furnace will ever be completely silent, but you should never hear unusual noises such as rattles, buzzes, or hums. All of these noises indicate problems, such as loose parts or broken equipment.
• Unusual Smells: If you have a gas furnace, you might smell some gas as the furnace kicks in, but the smell should not persist. If it does, you should contact Allen Service immediately. There could be a gas leak or some other less significant problem.
• Frequent Repairs: Manufacturers design furnaces with the long haul in mind. In other words, you shouldn’t have to call Allen Service for frequent repairs to your furnace. Usually, as a heating system ages, things begin to break or wear out. Furnace repairs can be expensive, so there comes a point where it makes more financial sense to purchase a new unit.

What Does Heating Installation Consist Of?

Heating installation typically involves the replacement of an existing furnace with a new one. Depending on the type of heating system, this process can involve the removal and disposal of old equipment, connecting new ductwork to improve airflow, or replacing outdated wiring for safety. During the installation process, central heating installers will inspect your home’s layout and design to ensure the proper size, capacity, and power requirements for the new equipment. Central heating installation also involves setting up controls and thermostat(s) as well as any necessary adjustments to ensure your system runs efficiently and offers maximum comfort. Finally, our technicians will complete a safety check of your furnace to make sure it is running correctly before they leave your home.
