Is your furnace giving you the cold shoulder? It might be time to think about a replacement. At Primo Heat, we’re all about keeping you cozy and warm, especially during those chilly months in BC’s Fraser Valley. So, let’s break down the 5 signs you need a new furnace.
1. It’s Older Than Your Favourite Sitcom
Remember the sitcom that made you laugh in the ’90s? If your furnace is as old as that show, it’s time to consider an upgrade. Furnaces typically have a lifespan of 15-20 years. Past that, they’re not just old school; they’re inefficient and more prone to breakdowns. Don’t wait for a total breakdown; let’s get you a furnace that’s part of this decade.
Check out how much it costs to replace a furnace.
2. Your Energy Bills Are Giving You Sticker Shock
If your energy bills are skyrocketing, your furnace might be the culprit. Older units work harder to provide the same amount of heat, guzzling more energy and hiking up your bills. A new, energy-efficient model can be a game-changer for your wallet and the environment.
3. It Sounds Like a Horror Movie
Are there strange bangs, pops, or rattles coming from your furnace? That’s not the ghost of winter past; it’s a sign your furnace might be on its last legs. Unusual noises often indicate mechanical issues that, more often than not, spell out the need for a replacement.
4. The Thermostat is Playing Mind Games
Finding yourself constantly adjusting the thermostat because some rooms feel like the Arctic and others like the Sahara? That’s a classic sign of an aging furnace losing its ability to distribute air evenly throughout your home. Consistency is key to comfort, and a new furnace can bring back that balance.
5. Repair Bills are Piling Up
If you’re frequently calling us for repairs, it might be time to bid your old furnace farewell. Constant repairs can be a money pit and, at some point, investing in a new furnace is more economical and less of a headache.
The Primo Heat crew is your partner in home comfort. So, if these signs sound a bit too familiar, it’s probably time to give us a shout. We’ll help you find the perfect furnace that fits your needs and budget. Ready to warm up to a new furnace? Get in touch with Primo Heat at 778-883-8447.
