Signs That You Need a Heater Replacement

When you have just moved into a new house, it is clear that you’ll need a new heating system. But what about when you already have a heater? Many times, we’ve discovered that our clients have a heating system at home, but it’s one that is old or has had a few repairs in the past. Soon enough, that worn-out and inefficient piece of equipment is going to break down, and you will be left in an emergency situation. It is always better to be proactive in the installation process before more major issues arise.

Some common examples of heater problems indicating that you need a replacement include:

• Having a heat exchanger that has become cracked – To work properly and safely, your heater’s combustion area must be completely separated from the air supply inside. However, if the heat exchanger has become cracked, then the air supply can leak, which is not only an inefficient use of heat but can be dangerous as well.

• Your system is no longer able to have proper venting – When your heating system burns fuel, whether in the form of propane or gas, it is essential to have a venting system. Otherwise, combustible, toxic gases can gather within a room, slowly hurting the people gathered within it.

• Your heater is simply outdated, and can no longer perform efficiently –Due to the advances of modern technology, current heaters are now able even to operate at a 95% efficiency level. In comparison, even when they were initially installed, older heaters could usually only reach around 75% efficiency at best. No amount of repairs will fix your efficiency – if you notice your energy bills are getting too expensive, it is high time to install a new heater.
