when should you Repair or Replace your Furnace
Does it make more financial sense to buy a new furnace or repair an old one? This is one of the most common questions we get.
Here are some questions to ask that can help you decide.
Additionally, you can check these common issues to see if that solves the problem:
- Secure the front panel door.
- Replace or clean the air filter.
- Open all air duct vents.
- Double-check that nothing is blocking your furnace’s outside fresh air intake (e.g., snow or leaves).
If none of the above solve the problem, then it’s time to call us.

Consider replacing your furnace if it’s over 15 years old, needs frequent repairs, or has become inefficient. A technician can assess whether repair or replacement is the better option.
Typically, the average lifespan of a gas furnace is between 15 and 20 years. This can be extended, however, if proper care is taken of it. If your furnace is over 15 years old, it may be time to start looking into replacement options to avoid a complete system failure and being left without heat.
Factors That Can Affect a Furnace’s Lifespan
The following elements can influence the longevity of your furnace:
The Age of the Furnace
The newer the furnace, the longer it is likely to last. With advancements in technology, new furnaces are now built with features that help safeguard the components and increase their efficiency. It’s best to consider replacing your furnace if it is over 10 to 15 years old.
Furnace Installation
Having your furnace installed correctly is key in determining its efficiency, energy usage, and overall lifespan. Improper installation can cause the furnace to work harder, resulting in higher energy costs, faster component wear and tear, and breakdowns. Be sure to have a qualified, certified heating and cooling contractor handle the installation of any new furnace.
Furnace Upkeep
Having regular maintenance performed on your furnace can significantly improve its lifespan. We suggest having maintenance performed annually to reduce the chances of a malfunction or poor operation, which can speed up the wearing down of components. Also, be sure to regularly change your furnace filters to prevent overheating and extra strain on the furnace. Pro Tip: Many furnace warranties require an annual maintenance appointment to remain in effect.
