Your heating system is essential to your overall comfort while in your Seneca, SC home in the winter time. That’s why it’s important to know when it’s time to invest in a new heating system rather than keep wasting money on repairs. While your furnace or heat pump may be working perfectly fine right now, our heating and air conditioning equipment won’t last forever. Here at Heavenly Aire, we believe it doesn’t hurt to recognize the signs you should start looking for a replacement to keep you and your family or employees comfortable. Keep reading below to learn about 4 of the most common signs that it’s time to replace your heating system.
Frequent Repairs
If you seem to be constantly calling your HVAC contractor for help with your heating system, it might be time to ditch your current system and get an upgrade. While you may not feel you can afford a new system right now (or that you even need a new one), you also likely can’t afford to keep wasting money on repairs. Your return on investment will be much greater if you go ahead and replace your furnace or heat pump instead of wasting money on frequent repairs.
Age of Furnace
Like we mentioned above, our heating and cooling equipment doesn’t last forever no matter how much care for it. Even with proper care and routine maintenance you can expect to get about 15 years on a furnace. If your furnace is nearing the end of its life, it’s time to start preparing for its replacement. If you already know what heating system you want installed in your Seneca, SC home, it will make the replacement process a lot easier and quicker when the times comes.
Lack of Heat
While this is an obvious sign, it’s still important to discuss. If your heating system is no longer keeping your Seneca, SC home warm and comfortable, it’s time to replace it. You and your family deserve to be comfortable all year long but even more so around the holidays. Whether your heating system needs a quick repair or an entire replacement, it’s important to call your local HVAC contractor for professional help to restore your comfort as soon as possible.
Increase in Energy Bills
Finally, if you’ve noticed a significant increase in your energy bills this fall and winter without changing anything else in your home, it’s likely due to a faulty furnace that needs attention. It’s normal to see a slight increase in your energy usage in the summer and winter but never a significant increase. If you’re unsure, check out our energy bills from the same time in past years. If you notice a big change, give your local HVAC contractor a call.
