Your furnace works around the clock during the coldest months. This demanding workload often causes older furnaces to break down on some of the chilliest days of the year in Phoenix. You may not even realize it could happen until you come home to a freezing house one day. Then you’re in disaster mode, and that’s not the best place to be. The Dial One Mears Air Conditioning & Heating Inc team can help. We’ve pulled together this list of symptoms that your furnace may be showing that will let you know it should probably be replaced.
Some rooms are colder than others
If your rooms aren’t evenly heated, your furnace may be failing. You might be able to solve this problem by confirming that your ductwork is properly sealed. Properly sealing your ducts can not only keep your home evenly heated, but it can save your furnace from working harder than it needs to. You could save your furnace and save some money with increased energy efficiency.
Your furnace is noisy
Have a noisy furnace inspected by the pros at Dial One Mears Air Conditioning & Heating Inc. Some people discover that their system is actually too small for their home, which can cause it to cycle between on and off more than it should. And rattling sounds could be telling you that inner pieces aren’t functioning as they should be.
Too many repairs
It’s no secret that older furnaces often fail, and before that happens they become less and less energy efficient. If you’re making appointments for furnace repair frequently, it’s time to look into a new system. Delaying a new purchase could cost you more money in the long run.
The average life expectancy of a furnace or boiler is about 15 years. So, if your system is getting up there, you might be better off with a new, efficient and quiet system. In Phoenix, the team at Dial One Mears Air Conditioning & Heating Inc can help you decide what would be best for you and your home. Call us at 602-832-7808 to set up an appointment with us.
