How Do You Know When To Replace Your Oil Furnace In Gloucester, MA?
Pay attention to these 7 signs that it may be time to replace your furnace:
- Furnace Age: The average life expectancy of a residential furnace is between 16 to 20 years.
- Rising Gas & Electric Bills: A furnace will often lose its efficiency over time if it has not been adequately maintained, running longer than usual to provide the same amount of heat it used to. That extra running time results in higher utility bills
- Breakdowns Are Occurring More Frequently: The older the furnace gets, the more frequently it will require repairs as one part replacement leads to another.
- Discomfort: Heat may not be distributed efficiently throughout the house. Some rooms may feel colder than others, and no amount of adjusting the thermostat seems to make the home comfortable.
- Physical Signs: The furnace evidences streaks of soot or rusting.
- The Furnace Makes Strange Noises: An older heater may bang, pop, rattle, squeal or sound like the blower is running continuously.
- Indoor Air Quality: The air in the house may feel stuffy or stale. As a furnace ages, it will often have difficulty moisturizing or cleaning the air in your home. Dust and allergens can begin to accumulate, and the trapped air can smell musty.
