1. Old Age – The average life expectancy of a furnace is approximately 15 years. With proper care, they may last longer but with the many industry improvements and more energy and cost-efficient models, keeping your unit for more than 15 years is not recommended.

2. High Energy Bills – As a furnace ages, it loses efficiency. The system is forced to work harder and, like all things, ultimately requires more energy to carry out its job. This leads to higher utility bills for you and has a negative effect on the environment.
3. Frequent Repairs – As mentioned, older furnaces work harder to keep up with the heating demands of your home. In time, this can equate to more frequent breakdowns and increasingly costly repairs. If your furnace is more than 12 years it may be time to consider replacing it.
4. Uneven Temperatures – An old, inefficient furnace can result in some rooms being colder or warmer than others. The system works harder to circulate heat evenly throughout your home but as it begins to decline in productivity, it’s more likely to overheat some rooms (often those in closest proximity to it) and underheat others.
5. Extra Noisy – Knocking, rattling, humming, and squealing could all be signs that your furnace is nearing the end of its life due to cracks, leaks or other structural issues. If you hear noise coming from your HVAC closet, it’s time to have it checked on.
