Have you been thinking about getting a new furnace soon? Are you unsure whether you need a new one? Here are some things you should look at while making your decision. One thing to look at is how many repairs you’ve had to make to it in the past few years. If you had to repair it a lot in the past few years your furnace needs to be replaced. You furnace might be the wrong size or it might not have been installed good enough in the first place. That will cause you the need to replace the furnace early. The next thing you look at is the age of your furnace. Is it 15 years or older? If so then you need a new furnace. Furnaces were made to last about 15 years. It has lived its life and should be replaced with a new and way more efficient model. This will save you money on your energy and repair bills. Another reason to replace instead of repair is if the repair will cost you half of what a new furnace would. You don’t want to always dump a bunch of money into an old unit that might just die soon anyway. One last thing you can use to make your decision is the performance of your current furnace. Has the performance and efficiency declined as of late? Even if you get your furnace cleaned and checked annually like recommended you can not stop the aging process of the unit. You also know that older furnaces just aren’t as efficient as todays models. Bartlett Heating and Air gives free installation estimates so call us today!
