Your furnace works constantly during the winter. This demanding workload often causes older furnaces to fail on some of the most frigid days of the year in Lodi. You may not even think about the possibility until you come home to a freezing house one day. Then you’re in disaster mode, and that’s not the greatest place to be. The Tokay Heating and Air Conditioning team can help. We’ve compiled this list of symptoms that your furnace may be showing that will let you know a replacement may be necessary.
Some rooms are colder than others
If your rooms aren’t evenly heated, your furnace may be struggling. Sometimes this problem can be solved by ensuring 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 better energy efficiency.
Your furnace is noisy
Always have a noisy furnace checked out by the pros at Tokay Heating and Air Conditioning. Some people learn 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 suggest that inner pieces aren’t operating properly.
Too many repairs
It is known that older furnaces often fail, and before that happens they become less and less energy efficient. If you find you’re calling for furnace repair frequently, it’s time to think about a new system. Waiting on a new purchase could actually cost you more money in the long run.
The average life of a furnace or boiler is about 15 years. So, if your system is getting older, you could benefit from a new, efficient and quiet system. In Lodi, the team at Tokay Heating and Air Conditioning can help you decide what would be best for you and your home. Call us at 209-257-3156 to set up an appointment with us.
