There\u2019s nothing wrong with focusing on your AC as temperatures start to rise, but paying a bit of attention to your heater over the spring season can pay off, especially if you think the heater is coming to the end of its service life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help you with your future plans for your heater if you think you might want it replaced this spring, here are a few things to consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Spring is an excellent time for this service<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Spring is what we in the HVAC industry call a \u201cshoulder season,\u201d i.e. a period between the most intense weather conditions when our services are in the highest demand. Spring brings warmer temperatures, but it\u2019s not yet time for running the AC through most of the day. Because of this, our technicians shift their work to focus on helping people with air conditioning system maintenance\u2014and with making important upgrades to their HVAC systems, such as putting in a new heater. It\u2019s much easier to schedule heater installation now, and you\u2019ll have extra time to consider your options and arrange for a convenient appointment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The age of the heater<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Age isn\u2019t an absolute when it comes to whether or not to replace a heating system. But it is a good guideline. Gas furnaces can last from 15 to 20 years, condensing gas furnaces around 15 years, and heat pumps from 10 to 15. If you have a heater in the upper range of its service life, replacing it is never a <em>bad<\/em> idea, although it may still have some useful years left. We can help you determine if the heater needs to be replaced ASAP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The cost of heating this last winter<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you pay more to heat your home this previous winter than you think you should have? If you account for more time spent at home and any potential increases in energy costs, you can see if the amount you\u2019re paying has risen. This is often a warning sign for an older heater that it\u2019s time to put in a new one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The potential high-efficiency replacement<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may already have in mind the type of heating system you want as a replacement because you have your eye on a high-efficiency system. For example, if you\u2019ve used a standard mid-efficiency gas furnace for the last 15 years, you might find a high-efficiency condensing furnace appealing. Although a high-efficiency heating system isn\u2019t always a guarantee of money savings, it can often be a good start. When you work with our pros, we\u2019ll make sure you have the ideal new unit to meet your energy efficiency goals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We offer many different types of heating systems, from gas furnaces to ductless mini split heat pumps.
