Deciding When to Replace Your Furnace
Installing new appliances is expensive and most people try to hold off replacing them for as long as possible. HVAC systems are no exception to this rule. However, it is important to know when a furnace is beyond repair and needs to be replaced. Heating systems keep your family warm through the cold winter months that Edwardsville, Illinois experiences. It is inconvenient having to deal with frequent repairs and your family should not have to suffer the consequences of a cold house when your system stops working.
The following are factors to consider when deciding whether to replace your current unit.
Is Your Furnace Safe?
The safety of your family, employees, and guests should be a top priority. Some damage to furnaces is dangerous and not worth repairing. Cracks, burning or sulfurous odors, and leaks need to be addressed immediately with an HVAC professional. Carbon monoxide, a lethal gas that is colorless, tasteless, and odorless, can leak from broken components on gas furnaces. If the damage to your furnace could become a safety hazard, you should replace your unit.
How Old Is Your Furnace?
If you only installed your furnace a few years ago, regular maintenance and tune-ups should catch most repairs before they turn into major issues. Depending on the model and original age, most furnaces last 15-25 years, so if your furnace falls within that range or older, you may want to consider replacing it.
Do Repair Expenses Outweigh Replacement Cost?
If you have ever had to buy ink for your printer or received an estimate for a damaged car part, you are well aware that sometimes replacement is cheaper than parts and repair costs. Furnaces can work the same way. Replacement parts and frequent repairs may cost more in the long run than buying a new furnace.
Is Your Furnace Energy Efficient?
Most people look to upgrade their heating systems to a more energy-efficient model to save money and help the environment. There are also new federal laws in place that require an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating of at least 80%. There are also incentives and rebates available when you install an energy-efficient furnace. You can ask your HVAC professional at B & W Heating and Cooling for more information about AFUE ratings, incentive eligibility, and energy-efficient models available for installation.

Heat Pumps
Heat pumps use electricity to combine outdoor and indoor temperatures to heat your home and maintain a comfortable environment. It is more energy efficient than other heating options, which will be reflected in your utility bill.
Boilers
Boilers can be installed in homes or businesses, but they are more common in commercial buildings. Pipes transfer hot water to heat the building, and you are able to set different temperatures on each floor. This is a cost-saving option that helps to heat larger buildings like schools and warehouses, and you have control over which spaces need more heat than others.
Ductless Split Systems
Ductless split systems are a great cost-saving option if you only need to heat a couple of rooms. Ductless just means that it does not use ducts to transfer heat, and each system heats a single room. Every room that has a ductless split system has an individual thermostat to control that room’s temperature. This would be ideal for rooms that run drafty or bedrooms for people who like warmer temperatures than the rest of the household.
