Signs You May Need a Furnace Replacement

Sometimes, your furnace simply needs regular maintenance or repairs when it isn’t working properly, but here are some signs that you may need furnace replacement:

  • Frequent Repairs: Repeated issues with your furnace can indicate that your furnace is reaching the end of its life. Repair costs can add up, so furnace replacement will likely save you money in the long run. 
  • Higher Energy Bills: An aging furnace becomes less and less efficient over the years. An inefficient furnace needs to work harder to heat your home, resulting in higher energy bills than normal. 
  • Uneven Heating: If your home is hot in some places and cold in others, your furnace is losing its ability to produce adequate heat. This will come with age. 
  • Age of the Furnace: After 15 to 20 years, most furnaces need to be replaced.
  • Strange Noises or Smells: Unusual bumps, clicks, and clangs can signal your furnace’s decline. And if you notice any odd scents from your furnace, replacement may be necessary. When unaddressed, your furnace may shut off completely or your health may be at risk.

Energy-Efficient Furnace Options

Natural gas and electric furnaces are the most efficient furnaces on the market today. They are also the most widely used. Oil and propane furnaces still see some usage, but they are much less efficient than their natural gas and electric counterparts.

Natural gas furnaces, at their best, have an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) of 98.5%, meaning that they waste very little energy, and therefore very little money, in the home heating process. Electric furnaces technically have an AFUE of 100%, but that number is actually lower depending on where the power source is. 

If you need electric or gas furnace replacement, Fayette provides models with industry-leading energy efficiency, lowering your energy bills for years to come. Not only will your bills be lower, but your carbon footprint will be lower, too.

Furnace Replacement FAQs

When should I replace my furnace?

If your furnace is 15-20 years old, needs frequent repairs, has high energy costs, heats your home unevenly, or makes unusual noises consistently, it is likely time for a new furnace. 

How much does furnace replacement cost?

Furnace replacement typically costs between $2,800 and $6,800. Most homeowners should expect to pay around $4,650 on average. This number depends on furnace size, fuel type, and efficiency ratings. 

How long does installation take?

A new furnace installation should take between 4 and 10 hours, with 10 hours being a rarity. Don’t worry, a furnace replacement isn’t a process that takes days or weeks to complete. 

What maintenance is required after a new furnace installation?

After furnace replacement, it’s important to schedule annual maintenance for your new unit. Typically, having your furnace checked once per year will keep it running smoothly and efficiently. If you use your furnace often, you may need a check-up twice per year.
