Signs Your Heater Might Be on Its Way Out

While the average lifespan for a heating system is 10-15 years, your system might fail sooner than expected. The best way to know when to install a replacement system is by watching for the signs of failure. While Banning heater repair can address some performance changes, a wider range of issues indicates a need to replace the system.

Rising Energy Bills

A general estimate is that a heating system will lose 5% of its efficiency each year. If you keep up with HVAC maintenance and still notice rising utility bills, your system is probably losing efficiency at a faster rate. When this occurs, talk to your HVAC company about new heating systems with higher efficiency ratings.

Frequent Heating Malfunctions

It’s normal to experience the occasional heating malfunction. However, if you regularly need Banning heater repair, you might save money by replacing the system. Compare your repair costs over a 12-month period to the price of a new system. You can cut those recurring costs with a new system that offers warranty protection.

Cold Spots or an Uncomfortable Indoor Climate

The wear and tear that accumulates over time will weaken your heating equipment. Even though the unit might run heating cycles more frequently, your home will feel less comfortable. Some areas might feel colder, or your whole home might feel chilly.

Rather than adjusting the thermostat and wasting more energy, consider installing a new heater that can handle your heating needs.

Unpleasant Odors Accompany the Heated Air

Heating equipment collects dust particles, tobacco smoke, pet dander, and other odor-causing contaminants.

While regular maintenance removes most of these particles, some debris seeps into hard-to-reach places. That’s why your treated air carries an unpleasant smell as the equipment gets older. Replacing an older system can solve this issue.
