How long does a furnace typically last?
A furnace should last roughly ten years. In areas like Dayton, where furnaces see heavy use in the winter, a furnace may last for only half that time. Furnaces not lasting are especially true for homeowners who must perform the required maintenance. If your furnace is older than ten years, and you notice that it is no longer operating as it used to, chances are it’s time for a replacement. At CJS Heating & Air, we help customers in and around Dayton with all their furnace replacement and installation needs. From finding the right furnace to installing it according to factory standards, our staff has the skills to do the job.
What are other signs that you need to replace your furnace?
While age may play a significant factor in determining when your furnace needs replacement, there are other indications you can look for that will help you replace your furnace before an emergency. These signs include the following:
- Strange Noises – During regular operation, your furnace should make some noise. Always look out for grinding, squeaking, rattling, and other odd noises. A unit with mechanical failures may be too far gone to repair.
- Energy Efficiency – The furnace is one of the largest energy consumers in your home. As it ages, this energy inefficiency can only get worse. An inefficient furnace can cost you significant money during the winter when you use the furnace the most.
- Fluctuating Operation – Does your furnace turn on and off without heating your home? Do you notice that the air is hot sometimes and cool others? Fluctuating operation indicates that your furnace is on its last legs. Both mechanical and electrical failures cause the fluctuation.
