When Should I Schedule Furnace Replacement?

A fairly new furnace that breaks down only once is nothing to worry about — a simple furnace repair will do. For an older furnace that breaks down frequently, however, repairs may not be enough.

Some of the signs that it’s time for a furnace replacement are:

  • You need frequent furnace repairs: If your furnace breaks down more than once per season, this usually means something is wrong and you need to start considering replacement. If you have a furnace inspection at the start of the season and your furnace still breaks down, a furnace replacement may be inevitable.
  • Your furnace is over 10–15 years old: Replacing an old furnace will save you from needing costly and inconvenient repairs — and will save energy. Furnaces get increasingly energy-efficient every year, so upgrading your 10-year-old furnace to a new, high-efficiency model could save you as much as 30% or more on your heating bills.
  • Your heating bills are increasing: If your furnace seems to be working fine, but you notice your heating bills are skyrocketing, this could mean your furnace is starting to wear down. If this happens, call Wheat & Sons — we can inspect the furnace and, if necessary, replace it before it breaks down completely.

The experts at James A. Wheat & Sons are here to give you the excellent service you deserve. Call (301) 241-9636.
