We recognize that once the cooler weather hits, you don’t want to be considering furnace installation. We also know that installing a new furnace in the winter is a lot better than the discomfort and potential home damages our Chelan and Wenatchee customers face if their furnace stops working.
To help make sure your furnace is running properly and efficiently, Lakeside Heating & Air advises routine maintenance. Despite providing your heating system with lots of attention, a furnace will reach a certain age and won’t be worth repairing. So, what happens if the time comes during the Chelan and Wenatchee winter? Don’t worry! Our professionals will be here to take care of you, and make sure your family’s home comfort is met.
How can you determine if you are ready for a new furnace? First, consider how old your furnace is. If it’s 15 to 20 years old, it’s possibly nearing the end of its life span. Oftentimes, it doesn’t make sense to put money into repairing a furnace that’s so old.
Next, review your energy costs. If they seem higher this season over previous years, your furnace may be struggling. Furnaces lose efficiency as they get older. When this happens, you’ll definitely see an impact on your utility bills.
Another signal that it may be time to replace your furnace is if you’ve had it repaired a number of times. Further repairs may not be the best way to go. It might be in your best interest to replace your furnace with a new, more energy-efficient model. Focusing your money on a new furnace instead of repairs could end up costing you less in the end.
You don’t have to figure this out on your own, just call Lakeside Heating & Air at 509-284-4265 and our team will be happy to take a look and go over all of your options—whether that includes a replacement furnace or furnace repair. You can even schedule an appointment with us online if that’s easiest for you. We are here to help you stay warm in your home during the Chelan and Wenatchee winter.
