When is it time to replace your heating system?
A few common signs:
- AgeFurnaces typically last 15-20 years; boilers 20-30+ years. Past that, repairs add up quickly.
- Rising fuel billsOlder equipment loses efficiency over time, even with maintenance.
- Uneven heatCold rooms or constant short-cycling often point to a system that's no longer sized for the home.
- Frequent repairsIf you're calling for service more than once or twice a year, replacement usually wins on total cost.
- Safety concernsCracked heat exchangers, persistent CO alarms, or yellow/sooty flames mean replace, not repair.
