8 Warning Signs Something Is Wrong with Your Furnace 

We know you have better things to do than watch your furnace all day long, but we do recommend keeping a close eye on your system. Your furnace is a large investment, responsible for keeping your home safe and comfortable, so you want to be able to detect problems early on before they get a chance to worsen and lead to major repairs or even premature system failure. You just need to know what to look for. 

Below are 8 warning signs that something is wrong with your furnace:

1. Banging, rattling, or squeaking noises
2. Weak or uneven airflow coming from your vents
3. Uneven heating throughout your home 
4. A sudden increase in energy bills despite no changes to your usage
5. The furnace turns on and off frequently throughout the day
6. There are smells of burning, gas, or must coming from your vents

How Long Do Furnaces Last?

The lifespan of a furnace can vary depending on the make and model, usage patterns, and how well it has been maintained. However, on average, a properly maintained furnace can last anywhere from 15 to 20 years. With proper care and regular maintenance, some furnaces may last even longer. 

That being said, there are several signs that your furnace may be approaching the end of its lifespan. These include frequent breakdowns, increasing energy bills, and visible signs of wear and tear on the system. If your furnace is exhibiting any of these signs, you might need to consider replacing it with a newer, more efficient model. 

5 Tips for Maintaining Your Furnace 

Routine heater maintenance is the key to a long-lasting, energy-efficient heating system. We recommend scheduling annual maintenance services with our licensed and certified technicians to get the most out of your heater. 

In addition to annual maintenance services, here are a few tips for maintaining your furnace:

1. Replace your air filter every 1 – 3 months depending on usage
2. Make sure your air vents are all open and there is nothing blocking them
3. Use a vacuum or a wet cloth to clean your air vents
4. Make sure your thermostat is set to 68 degrees Fahrenheit during winter
5. Keep the areas surrounding your furnace clean and free of debris or large objects
