It’s mostly sunny in Southwest Florida however, there are also cold days in which we also experience rain and thunderstorms. Days like these, we’d like to keep warm thus, we need a heating system at home. It will always come in handy.

You have to consider these things when you are thinking of having your heating system replaced or repaired. It’s not easy but you can take note of these few reminders to come up with your decision.

Age of your system

Heat pumps last an average of 10 to 12 years, while furnaces have a lifespan of around 15 to 20 years. If your equipment is within those ranges, expect more repairs in the near future. So try to remember when did you first acquire your heat pump or furnace? Did it already reach that age?

Outdated technology
Technology changes all the time. This is as true for your heating system as it is for your phone. By replacing aging equipment, you’ll be able to take advantage of smart new features and increased efficiencies that can save you money on your utility bills. It’s always good to be able to save a few bucks for that.

Cost of repairs
As a good rule of thumb, Consumer Reports recommends replacing a product when repairs exceed 50% of the cost of a new one. Your Lennox® Dealer is a great resource for current promotions that could significantly reduce the cost of a new system.
