People have used furnaces for decades because they offer a steady and dependable supply of heat. Your furnace works by internally burning fuel to heat air, water, or steam. This keeps your property warm no matter how harsh or icy cold it is outdoors.

Warning Signs You Need a Furnace Replacement

Frequent Breakdowns

You might be avoiding getting a furnace replacement because you’re worried about the cost, but the truth is that frequent repairs can often be more expensive than a new unit. If you’re experiencing frequent breakdowns, it’s time to consider a replacement.

Increasing Energy Bills

It is extremely rare that energy bills suddenly increase for no obvious reason. Usually, this situation is a clear indicator that your furnace is no longer operating efficiently, and is likely consuming more energy than necessary to heat your home.

Older Furnace

Although Fresh Air Flow specializes in repair services, sometimes there are things that can’t be fixed. One thing we can’t change is if a furnace is reaching the end of its lifespan. Unfortunately, once a unit hits 15 years old, it’s inevitable that, at some point, you’ll need a new one.

Yellow or Flickering Pilot Light

If you notice a flickering or yellow pilot light, the problem could be incomplete combustion, which happens because of things like age or internal issues.

Decreased Efficiency
