In circumstances like this, we want you to consult a professional. We know that the first thing on your mind might be furnace repair, but if your furnace is on the older side, then it might actually be time for furnace replacement in Colorado Springs, CO.

There are a variety of factors that can help you conclude if your furnace repair need has escalated to a furnace replacement need. We’re here to help you draw your line in the sand and understand what side you’re standing on. Let’s get into some of the deciding factors below…

The Signs You Should Replace Your Furnace

If you’re looking for a sign, we’ve got it for you. These are the signs that your furnace is probably about to break and could benefit from replacement services.

An Uptick In Repair Needs

Are you noticing that you need to repair your furnace more often than you’re used to? Repair needs happen, but they really shouldn’t happen more than once every few years. If each fall and winter season brings you a new problem, then your furnace is the common denominator. There’s nothing wrong with solving this problem by getting yourself a new heater.

Raised Cost for Heating

If your heating system has increased in cost over time, then this is bad news. If you haven’t changed how you run your furnace, then your efficiency is the one to blame. You can solve this issue by upgrading to a new furnace system.

Old Age

Your furnace is going to last you about 10-15 years. This is pretty common knowledge. What we find that people lose sight of is that not all of those 10-15 years are going to be equal. Let’s say that furnace lasts about 15 years. It’s highly likely that those last five aren’t going to be the most efficient or pristine years of your furnace’s life. This is why it’s a great idea to have a game plan in mind for replacement ahead of this. We can help if you’re feeling a little lost.

Excessive Dust

Excessive dust is a sign that your furnace is in a state of disrepair. Excessive dust isn’t just something that you should brush off. It’s something that you should pinpoint and talk to a professional about. It’s an early sign of heating issues. 

A Noisy Furnace

Have you noticed that your furnace is noisier than it ever has been before? A noisy furnace is a furnace that’s going to bring you trouble even if it isn’t currently happening. Don’t ignore sounds like banging, rattling, scraping, or anything else. A noisy furnace is bad news and we want to help you figure out the source of your issue and bypass this problem.
