Signs You Need A New Heating System
If you’re wondering whether it’s time to replace your heat system, keep an eye out for these common signs:
- Increasing energy bills: An increase in your heating bills without additional use of your system may mean that age and wear have caused its efficiency to decrease significantly.
- Frequent repairs: If your system requires constant repair, replacing it with a new, more reliable heating system may be a more practical choice.
- Uneven heating: A heating system that can’t evenly heat your home may have issues with capacity or declining performance.
- Strange noises: Clanking, squealing, and banging indicate that the internal components are loose or worn out.
- Age: Depending on the system type, the average lifespan of a heating system is 10 to 20 years. A system nearing this age may not be worth repairing.

FAQs
How can I protect my new heating system investment?
The best way to keep your new heating system operating smoothly for years to come is to schedule regular heating maintenance once a year. We recommend scheduling in the fall to prepare your system for winter.
How is energy efficiency measured in heating systems?
Depending on the system, there’s a variety of metrics that reflect efficiency:
- Furnaces and boilers use Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratings, with any rating above 90% being considered highly efficient.
- Heat pump efficiency is measured using the Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF). A rating of 8.5-10 or higher is considered highly efficient.
- Dual-power heat pumps are measured in Energy Efficiency Ratios (EER), with a rating of 12 or higher indicating high efficiency.
