Most furnaces have a lifespan of 20-30 years. But some furnaces have to be replaced well before that. After about 15 years, you may need to consider a furnace replacement if your unit needs frequent maintenance or has been experiencing significant problems.
Sometimes, a furnace replacement is necessary. A repair may be too costly, or your unit may be too old to fix.
Here are some signs that it’s time to consider a furnace replacement:
If you begin to notice any of these problems, call Bowman Heating & Cooling Services. We’ll send out a technician to look at your furnace and determine whether you need a furnace replacement or if a repair will do.
Many people struggle with knowing whether it’s more cost-effective to replace their furnace or repair it. One way of determining that is to consider the “5,000 rule”.
Take the age of your furnace and multiply that number by the cost of the estimated repair. If that number is greater than 5,000, it’s probably better to replace the unit. When you factor in more repairs that will likely be needed and the cost of heating bills, it’s more cost-effective to replace the unit.
One question homeowners frequently ask is how to know if they should get a new furnace replacement or an HVAC system repair.
If this is your first experience with a troubled heating system, it is usually recommended to treat your current HVAC systems malfunctions with a repair, as that tends to be the most cost-effective option. However, in cases where your system has needed frequent repairs or exceeds its expected life span, a new furnace installation is recommended.
Your furnace will give you several hints that it either needs to be repaired or replaced. Here are some things to look out for:
While some furnaces can smell when they’re first turned on for the season, the smell usually goes away as the unit runs. But, if you notice a strong smell of fuel around the unit that doesn’t go away, you may have a problem with your furnace. This type of smell may be due to a gas leak, excessive dust in the unit, or several other problems.
If you have trouble turning the unit on and keeping it running, you likely need to have your furnace inspected and possibly repaired. Problems like these can be due to disconnected wiring or damaged thermostats.
When your house is not warm enough despite the furnace being set to a reasonable level, it’s time to schedule repairs. This means the unit is not doing its job for some reason. Leaking ductwork or a faulty thermostat may be to blame.
If your system is not running properly, it can be sending dirt and bacteria throughout your home, resulting in poor air quality. If you notice people in your home have frequent coughs or other respiratory problems, you may want to have your furnace examined. Furnace problems can also cause issues for people with allergies as the foreign particles can lead to watery eyes, headache, or other symptoms.
Sometimes fixing these problems can be as easy as replacing the filter. Other times, more work is involved. Your ductwork and unit may need to be cleaned or there could be other issues going on. Calling an experienced HVAC technician can help to get to the bottom of the problem and improve the air quality in your home.
Loud and persistent noises can be a sign of a serious furnace problem. Squealing and whistling noises may come from belt or fan issues. If you hear banging it may be due to broken or loose internal parts. Any of these types of equipment noises need to be looked at by a professional so that your furnace system can work efficiently.
Your furnace has a carbon monoxide detector that is designed to alert you when toxic gases are present. If your carbon monoxide detector goes off, turn the furnace off right away and open the windows to ventilate your home.
You’ll want to call your gas company and an HVAC contractor to determine the source. Make an appointment as soon as possible because you could be in putting yourself and your family in a dangerous situation.
