Your furnace works nonstop during the coldest months. This demanding workload often causes older furnaces to stop working on some of the chilliest days of the year in Hasbrouck Heights. You may not even realize it could happen until you come home to a freezing house one day. Then you’re in disaster mode, and that’s not the most advantageous place to be. The ACE Solutions team can help. We’ve compiled this list of symptoms that your furnace may be exhibiting that will let you know it should probably be replaced.
Some rooms are colder than others
If your rooms aren’t heating evenly, your furnace may be reaching the end of its lifespan. Sometimes this problem can be solved by confirming that your ductwork is properly sealed. Properly sealing your ducts can not only keep your home evenly heated, but it can keep your furnace from working harder than it needs to. You could save your furnace and save some money with improved energy efficiency.
Your furnace is noisy
Always have a noisy furnace inspected by the pros at ACE Solutions. Some people discover that their system is actually too small for their home, which can cause it to switch on and off more than it should. And rattling sounds could mean inner pieces aren’t functioning as they should be.
Too many repairs
It’s no secret that older furnaces often fail, and before that happens they become less and less energy efficient. If you’re needing furnace repair frequently, it’s time to start researching a new system. Waiting too long to make a new purchase could cost you more money in the long run.
The average life of a furnace or boiler is about 15 years. So, if your system is getting to be that old, you might be better off with a new, efficient and quiet system. In Hasbrouck Heights, the team at ACE Solutions can help you decide what would be best for you and your home. Call us at 201-579-2562 to set up an appointment with us.
