Is it time for a new furnace in your Belgrade, MT home? Perhaps your furnace is well past its estimated lifespan of 15 years, your heating bills are too high, or you’re faced with a costly repair where the money would be better spent going toward a new system.
In addition to the stress of the expense of a new furnace, many homeowners also wonder how long it will take. If your old furnace has been causing frequent issues, reviewing signs your furnace is due for replacement can help you feel more confident about your decision to upgrade. After all, you can’t be without even a problematic furnace in our cold winter weather, especially if you don’t have a backup source of heat.
What happens during a furnace replacement?
- Sizing the new unit: Technicians calculate your home’s heating needs to ensure the furnace is the right size.
- Protecting your home: Floor coverings are laid down to prevent damage during the process.
- Removing the old furnace: The existing system is disconnected, removed, and the area cleaned.
- Installing the new system: Power and gas are shut off, then the new furnace is connected and sealed.
