Do I Need To Repair or Replace My Furnace?

While no one can predict exactly when your furnace will fail, there are a couple of clues that a furnace has to be replaced.

How Old Your Furnace Is

Heaters typically last between 12–17 years. If a furnace is 15 years old (or more), you have a greater possibility of shutting down. You should start to prepare for replacement by comparing new furnaces now.

Frequent Repairs

You should consider HVAC installation if the heating needs repairs more often.

Increased Energy Bills

Older furnaces won’t be as efficient. If you haven’t scheduled routine furnace maintenance, you’re vulnerable to losing even more furnace efficiency and having increasing energy costs.

Inconsistent Heating

An aging HVAC system can struggle to properly heat your home. Bad ductwork and a clogged furnace filter can also cause issues.

Three Advantages of a New Furnace

While furnace installation sounds intimidating, new furnaces include new features worn down systems can’t contend with. Plus, you can sit back and relax knowing you don’t need to replace your system for a long time.

A new furnace could mean:

1. Increased Efficiency

New furnaces are extremely dependable and offer much better efficiency ratings than equipment from 20 years ago.

2. Quieter Operation

Modern furnaces offer the latest in quiet operation technology. You may not even notice when it switches on.

3. Peace of Mind

Innovative HVAC technology ensures your furnace will stay in good shape for longer and run with greater energy efficiency. With maintenance service agreements, you’ll never miss an important yearly tune-up again.

Furnace Installation FAQs

Proper sizing is based on factors like home size, building envelope, window efficiency, layout, and regional weather. Many contractors use a Manual J-style calculation to avoid problems caused by undersizing, such as uneven comfort.
Many installations are completed in a single day, but timing can vary depending on venting changes, electrical or gas updates, local requirements, and whether you’re upgrading equipment. 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 make the mechanical area accessible, keep pets in another room, and make sure the thermostat is easy to reach. After installation, the team should verify safety controls, show you how to use it, and explain filter replacement.
A newer furnace can improve efficiency, but savings depend on your current equipment condition, temperature settings, ductwork condition, and overall heat loss. A technician can help you compare system options and expected performance for your home.
