Is Furnace Replacement a Waste of Money?

Many homeowners like to squeeze every last bit of life out of their furnace before replacing it, to avoid having to pay for a new one. It’s true that a new furnace is a major expense, but it’s also a major investment. A new furnace is a big selling feature and will raise the value of your home. Getting a new furnace also means your older model has been replaced by a newer, more energy efficient model that will lower your heating bills. So, the answer to the question is a resounding no!

When Your Thermostat and Furnace Don’t Agree

One sign that you need to have someone look at your furnace for possible repair, is when you set a temperature on your thermostat and the furnace can’t make it happen. The reason you have a programmable thermostat is so you can enjoy the exact temperature you want, so if it isn’t working you should have someone come in and take a look. There may be an issue with the thermostat, the sensors, blowers, motor or an electrical component.

Furnace Filters Need Attention, Too

With so much attention paid to other parts of your furnace, the filter often gets neglected. You’ll get it changed by the technician if you have annual maintenance, but it needs to be changed every three months to keep your heating system running efficiently. Find out how to change it yourself, or schedule a visit every few months to keep the filter clean and the furnace running well.

Providing Furnace Replacement Services in Chicago Since 1988

Can you imagine living in the Chicago area without a functioning furnace? It’s not a pleasant thought, is it? Unfortunately, if your furnace is approaching 20 years old, it might be something you experience firsthand in the near future. Like all of us, heating systems have an expiration date. As time goes on, the need for regular furnace repair grows, and parts become harder and harder to find. Eventually, whether out of economy or necessity, all furnaces will break down and have to be replaced.

Unfortunately, that death knell rarely sounds at a convenient time. It tends to happen late at night or on the coldest night of the year. Fortunately, the HVAC experts at TDH Mechanical, Inc. are here to help set things right. The fuel source doesn’t matter. We will help you find the new furnace that’s right for you and install it with the prompt professionalism for which we’re known.

Signs You Might Need a New Furnace

A furnace on its last legs will often throw up an SOS. In some cases, these calls for help are obvious. A furnace that will no longer kick on, for instance. But there are a number of subtler signs that a new furnace may be soon needed. These include:

  • Age:
    If your furnace is over 10 years old, it’s often wise to at least consider replacement over repair. Newer furnaces are much more efficient than older ones. They also come equipped with a number of SMART systems. As the time of manufacture grows more distant, parts availability can also be impacted.
  • Repeated Visits:
    Are you having to call us more than once in a heating season for unrelated problems? This is often a sign of an impending disaster. Parts in older furnaces often fail in quick succession. The service fees for these visits quickly pile up and can eventually be more expensive than installing a new furnace.
  • Weird Smells:
    Do you notice a strange smell when the furnace kicks on? Does this odor refuse to dissipate with continued use? This can often be a sign of a leak or defective ductwork. However, if you only notice the smell the first time you turn the furnace on for the season, this is in line with the typical furnace start-up. That smell is the odor of accumulated summer dust burning off.
  • Odd Noises:
    Sometimes those things that go “bump in the night’, might be a sign that your furnace is on its last legs. These noises can indicate the beginnings of a major component failure. To see if the noise is the result of a major or minor issue, call a heating repair expert in the Chicago area.
  • Climbing Utility Bills:
    As heating equipment begins to fail, it may have to work harder to keep temperature. This can lead to an unusually large spike in your gas or electric bills. To see how much installing a new furnace can save you in Chicago, call (773) 342-4338 to schedule a quote for furnace replacement.
  • Visual Rust:
    Small amounts of rust in the burner area are to be expected with age. However, excessive amounts can signal an issue with the heat exchanger. If it gets too severe, vital components can fail and allow carbon monoxide into your home. It’s never a bad idea to have an HVAC professional check on a rust problem.

No matter how large or how small your home in Chicago, TDH Mechanical, Inc. can keep it warm with a professional furnace replacement.

How to Ensure You Get the Best Furnace for Your Chicago Home

After determining a new furnace is needed, our HVAC experts will present you with replacement options. This can include changing the fuel source from electric or oil to gas. Which one is right for you depends on a number of things, not just your budget. So, while money is important, our technician will try and balance costs with:

  • Compatibility:
    Though there are alternatives to your current furnace—including heat pumps—these other options also require changes in your distribution system.
  • Energy Efficiency:
    While almost all new systems will be more eco-friendly, the level to which that’s true depends on the unit selected. If you prefer long-term savings to upfront ones, consider going for something with a higher AFUE level.
  • Sizing:
    The furnace selected must be the right size. Too big of a unit will lead to short cycling. One that’s too small, meanwhile, will struggle to cool rooms furthest from your equipment. The best way to ensure you get it right is to leave equipment sizing to the Chicago HVAC professionals at TDH Mechanical .
  • Fuel Source:
    If you have a heating system that isn't meeting your needs, our HVAC technician might recommend a fuel change. Though this can net you savings in the long run, it also requires additional up front investments.

Curious about what’s the best way to ensure you get the right furnace in the Chicago area? The answer is simple: trust our recommendations. Our staff truly values your comfort and will work diligently to find a furnace that meets your home’s specific needs. We also offer coupons to help make new furnace installation more affordable.

An Ounce of Furnace Maintenance is Worth a Pound of Cure

Installing a new furnace represents a long-term investment in your home. The last thing you want to do is let that money go to waste. That’s where preventive furnace maintenance comes in. On a regular basis, we recommend having an HVAC technician out to give your home’s comfort systems a comprehensive once over. While there, they’ll go through our extensive checklist and look for things like:

  • Loose wires
  • Dirty components or filters
  • Carbon monoxide leaks
  • Broken fan blades
  • Broken or worn belts
  • Signs of excess wear and tear
  • Dirty burners

By scheduling these checks regularly, you can maximize the life of your unit. We invite you to click here and learn more about our furnace maintenance process.
