Do I Need To Repair or Replace My Furnace?

Rheem products

While it’s impossible to predict precisely when your furnace will break down, there are some signs that a furnace needs to be replaced.

The Age of the Furnace

Heaters usually last about 12–17 years. If yours is 15 years old (or more), you have an increased chance of breaking down. You should start the process for replacement by researching new furnaces ahead of time.

Frequent Repairs

You should think about HVAC installation if yours needs repairs more consistently.

Increased Energy Bills

Old furnaces won’t be as efficient. If you’ve put off preventative furnace maintenance, you risk losing additional furnace efficiency and dealing with steeper energy costs.

Spotty Heating

An older HVAC system can struggle to properly heat your home. Leaky ductwork and a dirty furnace filter can also stir up trouble.

Three Benefits of a New Furnace

While furnace installation sounds overwhelming, new furnaces include new features worn down systems can’t keep up with. In addition, you can sit back and relax knowing you won’t have to replace your system for years to come.

A new furnace could mean:

1. Increased Efficiency

New furnaces are very dependable and can boast higher efficiency ratings versus models from 20 years ago.

2. Less Noise During Operation

A newer furnace includes the latest in quiet operation technology. You may not even notice when it switches on.

3. Peace of Mind

Modern HVAC technology ensures your heating will live longer and run with better energy efficiency. With one of our service agreements, you’ll never lose out on an important furnace tune-up again.

Frequently Asked Questions: Furnace Installation

Proper sizing is based on factors like square footage, building envelope, air leakage, ceiling height, and regional weather. Many contractors use a load calculation to avoid problems caused by undersizing, such as uneven comfort.
Many installations are completed in one visit, but timing can vary depending on ductwork modifications, utility connections, permits and inspections, 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 better control—especially with two-stage systems or variable-speed blowers. Your contractor can confirm control requirements and recommend the best option.
Before the appointment, it helps to clear a path to the furnace, secure pets, 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 maintenance needs.
A newer furnace can improve efficiency, but savings depend on your current equipment condition, thermostat habits, ductwork condition, and home insulation. A technician can help you compare efficiency ratings and expected performance for your home.
