Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Heater
There are many reasons a heater may need to be replaced instead of repaired. Most of our clients decide that they are ready to upgrade their unit when they notice that more money is going into repairs than the cost of a whole new replacement heating system. In any event, Swick Home services can help!
Some of the signs that it’s time to replace your old heating system include:
- Constant Repairs: As stated above, many customers know it’s time to invest in a new heating system when they realize that they’re spending more money paying for repairs than the total cost of a replacement. Even if your repairs are half the cost of a new system, you will be saving money in the long run by installing a new system.
- Energy Efficiency: The older your heating system is, the more energy it consumes to do its job. Every year, new energy efficient models hit the market requiring even less energy than the last. If you’re looking for ways to use less energy, a new heating system is the right choice for you.
- Getting Up There In Age: Traditional heating systems tend to have a life expectancy of about 15-20 years. If your heater is approaching its last years, we strongly advise replacing it with a new system in order to avoid repair costs down the road.
- Inadequate Heat: If your home is experiencing inadequate or uneven heat in certain rooms, it could be a sign that your system is need of repair or replacement.
- Natural Gas Smell: If your heater is emitting a natural gas smell, that is a dangerous sign that a leak is present. You should call an HVAC professional right away as a leaking heater can be extremely hazardous.
While repairs are always a preference for homeowners, at some point the cost for service can outweigh the cost of a new system. Work with our heating contractors to determine what’s right for your home.
