Is It Time For Total Furnace Replacement?

How to Know When it is Time to Replace Your Old Furnace

Having a new furnace installed is a big undertaking. It is important to know what you are in for, but it is even more essential to learn how to avoid it. Next, we will discuss signs that it may be time to replace your old furnace.

The first thing you probably think about is its age when deciding if it is time to replace your furnace. The average lifespan of a furnace is 10 and 20 years, but it is common for repair costs to stack up. The stacking up of bills usually pushes people to install a new furnace early. There are a couple of ways that you can look at it. Replacing a furnace under seven years old is a sound financial decision, only if your bills and repair costs equal 50% of what it would cost to replace it. Bills for furnaces over ten should equal 10% – 20% of what it would cost to replace them.

Here is another way to think about it that considers its age again. If it’s older than ten years and the repair costs more than $500, it’s time for a new furnace. The reason is that $500 is enough money to use as a down payment on a new, more efficient furnace.

The relationship between age and how much you spend on repairs is one of many cost factors to consider. The cost of a new furnace is high. It can be hard to invest that much money when things are tight. Contrary to popular belief, furnace replacement can actually save you a lot of money. For example, switching from a furnace rated 80% – 85 % in efficiency to a furnace rated 95% – 97% is an excellent investment. Not only will you save on repairs but on energy bills as well.

When it comes to furnaces and money, you should also be aware of changes to energy consumption. Differences in cost to run them vary by season. Of course, you do not need the same heating power in the summer as in the winter. You are losing efficiency if your bills are higher in one season than in other years. Due to the loss of efficiency, furnace replacement saves 35% on average.

Signs That It Is Time To Have A New Furnace Installed

Beyond aging and saving money, some repair issues call for furnace replacement. Hire a professional immediately if:

Furnace problems can escalate quickly. From an abnormally high temperature that makes the space uncomfortably hot to drastic drops that cost you energy and money. If you’re experiencing a temperature rollercoaster in your home, it may be time to consider hiring a professional to deal with your furnace system. There are a number of reasons that your system may not be working correctly, not all of them will require a full system replacement. Our team will be able to quickly identify and diagnose the issue and help you remedy it.

Replacing a furnace system can seem daunting, which is why we strive to make the entire process as simple and straightforward as possible. Whether you’re looking for a new installation or an older system needs replacing, our team of experts are there with you every step of the way – from selecting the right furnace system that meets your unique requirements, to performing a professional installation that ensures optimal performance and energy efficiency.

A healthy furnace does more than heat your home. It also removes moisture and rids the air of pollutants. Excess dust and moisture in your home indicate that your furnace is not operating as it should. There may be underlying problems causing your furnace to work harder than it should.

Address excessive moisture immediately. Humidity levels above 50% foster the growth of molds in your home. Breathing mold spores for a long time is a hazard. Discuss excess moisture with a Green Leaf certified specialist. We want to help you plan.

A slight smell from your furnace is typical as it begins to operate, and dust burns off. However, smells you have never experienced before or that have become more persistent should be inspected. Similarly to smell, the typical furnace is relatively quiet these days. Some noise is normal. Still, hearing a sound that grinds, squeals, or squeaks means something is wrong. In either case, it is strongly recommended that you call a knowledgeable HVAC company like Green Leaf A/C Heating and Plumbing. Furnace replacement has a dangerous nature. You could hurt someone or yourself if you are unsure of what you are doing.

Our furnace installation specialists are happy to inspect your unit and provide recommendations.

Why Installing Your Own Furnace is a Bad Idea

You should only attempt furnace installation if you have the skills and knowledge to understand them. Furnace replacement is hazardous, especially with gas furnaces. The risk of fire and property damage when replacing your furnace is high. In some states, operating on them is illegal without the necessary certifications. Furthermore, installing your furnace voids the warranty and is not covered by most insurance plans. When furnace installation goes wrong, it goes very wrong. For example, toxic gasses release into your home and the atmosphere. Breathing toxic gas fumes will cause you to always be sick and can even lead to death if the levels are high enough.

There are so many reasons that could be causing your furnace to malfunction. Unless you have expert-level knowledge in furnace installation or repairs, it is best to find a professional. A certified HVAC company like Green Leaf can install, repair, and maintain any furnace. We also have the knowledge you can trust because we get it done right the first time.

Everything You Need to Know About Furnace Replacement & Installation

How Long Does it Take to Install a New Furnace?

Furnace replacement has a lot to consider besides whether it is operating well. While in Texas, your furnace may not always be the most important appliance in your house, it has a huge role to play. You only want it to be out of commission for a short time. You will also want to be aware of things like timing and the total cost of installation. So how long will furnace installation take in your home? You should be aware of equivalency when considering a furnace replacement. Equivalency in a furnace means: 

  • Similar size
  • Efficiency rate 
  • Direction of airflow
  • And features

Installing an equivalent system is quicker because nothing else about your home has to change. Switching from a furnace with an 80% efficiency factor to one with 90% is a good example. Your home will likely require additional work to make it fit. Depending on your house, you may need to add a condensation line or make alterations to the chimney. Efficiency is an easy example to make, but there are many other factors like this to consider when choosing a furnace. It is always best to get a professional’s opinion.

All in all, furnace replacement and installation should take a skilled technician between 2 and 12 hours.

When calculating the price of a new furnace, you should include all the associated costs with furnace replacement. Including:

  • The furnace itself
  • Furnace installation
  • Removal of the old system
  • Any alterations to your existing HVAC system or home

According to HomeAdvisor, you will likely spend between $2,805 and $6,778 once you calculate all costs. The average price is around $4,500 but will vary depending on furnace type, size, efficiency, brand, and labor. When deciding what is suitable for your home, always consider your family’s needs first. Remember, you can always count on a Green Leaf HVAC expert to help you troubleshoot and make recommendations.

How Often Should A Healthy Furnace Need to be Replaced?

Increasing the Lifetime Value of Your Costly Furnace Installation

You should only need furnace installation every 15 to 20 years. However, as we discussed earlier, how well you care for your furnace alters its life expectancy. Furnaces are built for the long haul but are still susceptible to failure.

The most diligent way to expand the life of a furnace is by keeping it maintained by a professional. It keeps your system under warranty while also catching problems before they have a chance to do real damage. It’s best if you don’t have to make expensive repairs with such a costly appliance. Be sure to change the filters every 90 days to prevent this from happening. Allowing dust to build up in the filters will put your furnace in an early grave.

The best time for maintenance is in the fall before the weather begins getting cool. Make sure your furnace is working properly before you start needing it.
