Your furnace is a hardworking piece of equipment. Any appliance or home system that sees a lot of use has a limited lifetime, and will eventually need to be replaced. It’s always best to have some idea of how long something will last so that having to purchase a new one won’t come as a complete surprise.
Of course, you want your furnace to last for as long as it possibly can. But the flip side of that is that you don’t want to continue to run a furnace that is costing you a ton of money in utility bills because it can no longer operate efficiently. You also shouldn’t keep using a furnace that poses a safety hazard. How long can a furnace last, and how can you make sure it stays safe and efficient for as long as possible? Here are some useful guidelines.
There’s no mistaking that these days, affordability is at the top of mind with any big appliance or equipment purchase. And we are not just talking about the initial purchase, but the costs of operating said appliance over the months and years. Efficiency goes hand in hand with this, and if you’re serious about boosting your home’s efficiency while paying as little as possible for your HVAC use, then you’d do well to consider the installation of a ductless system.
