Should I Repair or Replace My Furnace?
Deciding between a quick fix and a full replacement can be difficult. The following indicators are the most reliable ways to determine when a new furnace is the more cost-effective choice for your home:
Furnace Age
While high-quality units are built to last, furnaces typically have a functional lifespan of between 12–15 years, even with proper annual maintenance. Once your furnace hits the 10-year mark, the internal components have an increased chance of failing. Replacing a unit before it breaks down completely prevents emergency "no-heat" situations during a freeze.
Frequent Service Calls
If you find yourself calling an HVAC technician for repairs more than once a season, those costs are likely better spent toward a down payment on a new system. A new furnace should be strongly considered if service calls (beyond your regularly scheduled maintenance) have become excessive or if the cost of a single repair is more than half the value of the unit.
Increased Energy Costs
If your gas or electric bills are climbing despite your usage staying the same, your heating system is likely to blame. Outdated heating systems tend to be less productive over time. As older furnaces lose their efficiency, they have to run longer and harder to maintain the same temperature, resulting in higher monthly energy costs.
Uneven Heating and Poor Airflow
Do you have one room that is freezing while another is uncomfortably warm? An aging furnace often struggles to distribute air effectively throughout a home. While poor ductwork or clogged air filters can contribute to this, a failing blower motor or heat exchanger in an old furnace is often the root cause of uneven heating.
3 Major Benefits of a Modern HVAC System
Investing in a new furnace provides optimal comfort and financial benefits that an aging, struggling heating system simply cannot match. By upgrading your home’s HVAC technology, you can expect:
1. Superior Energy Efficiency
Today’s HVAC systems are engineered for maximum dependability. Modern units provide much higher AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) ratings compared to the systems utilized two decades ago. This means more of the fuel you pay for is converted directly into heat for your home rather than being wasted.
2. Whisper-Quiet Heating Operation
Older furnaces are known for "clunking," "banging," and loud cycling noises. A new furnace delivers the quietest operation to date, utilizing insulated cabinets and variable-speed motors that ramp up and down smoothly, so you barely notice when the system is running.
3. Total Peace of Mind
Modern HVAC technology ensures your furnace will work longer and run with increased energy efficiency from day one. When you pair your new installation with a Keystone Service Agreement, our annual maintenance helps keep your manufacturer's warranty valid and ensures your furnace functions properly for years to come.
Furnace Replacement You Can Count On
At Keystone Heating & AC, we pride ourselves on a "white-glove" installation experience. This starts with a professional load calculation; a technical assessment where we measure your home’s square footage, insulation levels, and window efficiency to determine the exact size furnace your space requires. By performing this calculation, we ensure your new system isn't oversized (which leads to "short-cycling" and high bills) or undersized (which leaves you cold on the sub-zero nights typical of a Wisconsin winter).
From keeping your residence clean with floor protection throughout the installation process to double-checking every connection and safety switch upon completion, you can count on us for all your furnace replacement needs. Our technicians are fully licensed and insured, ensuring your Racine or Kenosha furnace installation is done properly and meets all local building codes.
