How to Tell You Need a New Furnace Replacement
Many people wait until a furnace stops working to plan for a furnace replacement. In that case, it helps to understand the signs indicating your furnace is about to fail. If you notice any of these signs of a failing furnace, you should plan a replacement as soon as possible.
Inconsistent Cycling
If your furnace frequently turns on and off, it indicates inefficiency. It also means the system struggles to meet your home’s heating demands. For instance, a faulty thermostat can send incorrect signals to the furnace, contributing to erratic cycling. When the system struggles to meet your heating demands, it may be too old and worn out to continue operating efficiently. In this case, consider replacing the unit.
High Energy Costs
If your utility bills show rising energy costs without additional appliances or usage, that could indicate a failing appliance. Even if the furnace is functional, an older unit will still use more energy. A technician can tell why your furnace uses more energy to heat the same space.
The Age of Your Furnace
Most heating systems have a lifespan of 15 to 20 years, depending on maintenance and usage. If yours is nearing or beyond that age, plan for a replacement.
Unusual Odors and Sounds
When you operate the furnace in your Los Angeles home, pay attention to any unusual sounds or odors. Loud knocking or grinding sounds indicate a broken fan or other faulty component.
A metallic or plastic smell could indicate overheating elements. A functional furnace will automatically shut when it starts to overheat. An electrical or mechanical fault may develop as the system ages, preventing the feature from working appropriately.
Our detailed repair approach restores the furnace to its optimal condition.
