Repair or Replace Your Furnace?

Repairs are often the best choice when:

  • The furnace is under 10 years old
  • The needed repair is minor
  • The system is otherwise operating efficiently

Replacement may be the better investment when:

  • The furnace is 15+ years old
  • Repairs are becoming frequent
