Heating Replacement in Springfield, PA

How Long Can You Expect Your Heater to Last?

This is one of the big questions that homeowners have about their heating systems. The simple answer is that it depends on the type of heater and how well it’s been maintained and repaired over the years. Here are some basic lifespan expectations for common heating systems that receive regular annual maintenance:

• Gas furnaces: 15 years
• Electric furnaces: 20 years
• Gas boilers: 20–30 years
• Heat pumps: 10–15 years

Without maintenance, life expectancy will fall, sometimes dropping to half the estimated service life, so make sure that you schedule your heating maintenance with our team.

Signs of a Heating System in Need of Replacement

Along with the heater’s age, there are several signs to watch for that will warn you that your heating system is coming to the end of its service life.

• Uneven heating: Cold spots around the house where you’ve never had them before often indicate that the heating system is losing its capacity.
• Noisy operation: A worn-down heating system will often start to make a great deal more noise than it used to, and single repairs won’t change it.
• High heating bills: When you notice that your regular heating bills are rising and you can’t explain why, an aging heater is often the reason.
• Frequent repairs: A heating system shouldn’t need to have repairs each year, and definitely shouldn’t require it more frequently than that. If this is happening, it may be time to consider a professional heating repair service. Too many repairs is a heater begging to be replaced.
• Expensive repairs: In general, we don’t recommend a repair that costs more than half the price of a new heater. It’s better to put that money toward a fresh start.
