A Functioning Furnace Is Crucial to Your Home’s Comfort.

An efficient and high-quality furnace is one of the best ways to ensure your home stays warm and cozy during the coldest months of the year. Making sure the system is properly maintained and functioning as efficiently as possible can help maximize its lifespan, reduce energy costs, and achieve total home comfort. Furnaces are similar to boilers. They both help achieve a warm, comfortable home. However, while boilers heat water and distribute it through pipes, baseboards, and radiators, furnaces heat air and send it through the home’s duct system. Furnace filters should be changed at least once every couple of months. Most furnaces are powered by either natural gas, propane or fuel oil. If you have an older furnace, regular maintenance and servicing become especially critical. Without proper upkeep, the chances of the furnace burning more fuel than necessary increases – meaning you are paying more on utility bills than you would otherwise have to.

Is It Time To Upgrade?

There are several warning signs that could indicate your furnace is not working properly and that it may be time for a repair or replacement. The first is if the furnace is more than 10 years old. Once the unit hits the 10-15 year mark, it is at a higher risk of failure. Plus, there are much more energy-efficient options available now than a decade ago. Today, the efficiency of furnaces is measured by the annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE). New furnaces are up to 98% AFUE, unlike older furnaces which are only about 65% AFUE. This can save your household up to 35 cents for every dollar spent. By replacing your furnace with a more efficient model, you can enhance the heating quality of your home and reduce heating fuel costs. To further increase the efficiency of your furnace, regularly inspecting your home’s duct and ventilation systems is also recommended. Additional signs of furnace malfunction include unusual noises, infrequent cycling, and inconsistent temperatures. When investing in a new furnace, ensuring you work with a licensed and experienced company is crucial, since the performance of the unit hinges on proper installation and maintenance.[/wow_panel]

What’s the Risk of Delaying Furnace Services?

For many families, delaying their furnace’s replacement, repairs or maintenance is often accidental. Time flies, and forgetting to schedule an inspection is easy when you haven’t noticed any change in your furnace’s performance. Skipping an annual appointment, however, poses several risks, including:

• Higher repair costs due to undiagnosed issues
• Shorter furnace lifespans due to limited airflow and other problems
• Greater energy costs due to decreased performance

Protect your family’s investment by taking care of your furnace year-round with the help of SMO Energy.
