Should I Repair Or Replace My Furnace?

Heating & Cooling

Colder temperatures have arrived in Lexington, and furnaces are firing up throughout the city. It’s an unfortunate reality that some home and business owners will face furnace issues this season. If you are met with furnace problems this season, you may need to decide which is the better choice for your heating needs: repairing your furnace or replacing it?

Repair furnace vs. replace a furnace

This can be an expensive decision no matter which way you go. If you choose to replace your broken furnace, you may be faced with the larger upfront costs of purchasing new equipment. On the other hand, if you choose to repair it, you may be pouring money into a furnace that’s going to need replacement soon anyhow.

Only you can decide which approach is best for your situation, but below are some tips to help you make an informed decision.

Consider repairing your furnace if…
• Your furnace is under 10 years old and has been well-maintained.
• You still have applicable warranty protection for the furnace issues you are experiencing.
• The cost of repairs is less than a third of the cost of a new system.
• Your furnace is still efficiently heating your home or business.

Consider replacing your furnace if…

• Your furnace is around 10 to 15 years old but has been poorly maintained.
• Your system is 15 or more years old.
• You have had to repair your furnace often over the last few heating seasons.
• Repairs will cost more than one-third of the price of a new heating system.
• Your current system is not sized properly for your home or business.
