A furnace is a tried and true method of keeping a home warm, no matter how harsh the outside conditions may be. While furnaces are extremely popular, it can be a big headache when they malfunction.

Unusual Noises

Loud noises like banging or rattling are often the result of things like airflow problems, mechanical failures, or loose components.

Short Cycling

A healthy furnace doesn’t shut itself off and on again, so if you’re dealing with this situation, it’s time to have your system inspected by an HVAC professional.

Increased Energy Bills

Spikes in heating costs are a likely indicator that your furnace is working harder than necessary to keep your home at a comfortable temperature.

Warning Signs You Need a Furnace Replacement

Frequent Breakdowns

Although you may be worried about the cost of a furnace replacement, the truth is that frequent repairs often cost more money than a replacement.

Surging energy bills are an issue, especially when there’s no change in usage. This indicates there is something wrong within your furnace, which causes it to consume extra energy to maintain a warm temperature.

Older Furnace

No amount of maintenance or repairs can fix the fact that a furnace is getting old. Once a unit hits 15 years old, it’s time to consider a new one.

Yellow or Flickering Pilot Light

A flickering or yellow pilot light hints at things like incomplete combustion, which is often the result of internal issues or age.
