I’ve been very busy over my furnace.
The furnace has served me well for the past 5 years that I’ve been living here, however it’s always been a concern of mine… When I obtained the house, the furnace was 10 years old, which was still old in terms of furnace lifespans.
Now, the furnace is 15 years old and it desperately needs to be replaced! I had the entire Heating, Ventilation as well as A/C system diagnosed bimonthly during my time here and there has never been any severe disasters that have forced me into buying a new furnace, and however, this past year has very tested my luck. I switched over from my a/c to my furnace back in November, which means that I’ve been running the furnace for the past 3 months. This isn’t a long time, however I’ve already had to call the Heating, Ventilation as well as A/C corporation twice and have two repairs. These iPhone calls and repairs aren’t cheap, not to mention all the currency I’ve been paying just to run the furnace. With all of this being said, I had to make the bittersweet decision to buy a new furnace. I’m gleeful about this because it means that I’ll have a furnace that’s able to heat my home without any complications or repairs. My utility expenses will also be severely lower! The downside about buying a new furnace is the expense, which is why I’ve put it off for so long. Furnaces are not cheap, however all the Heating, Ventilation as well as A/C professionals tell me that it will pay itself off in the long run. I hope they’re right!
