At Sensible Heating & Cooling, we hear from a lot of people who have a furnace that is between 15 and 20 years old, and they are wondering what the benefits to replacing their furnace are. Besides the obvious, there are a lot of benefits to replacing your furnace before an emergency.
* Energy Savings: One of the biggest benefits to installing a new furnace is the energy savings you will see right away. Many people who have an older furnace are very shocked to see their first Xcel bill. It is generally between 20 to 30% lower the first month after they install a new furnace, and it is obviously much more efficient and safer for the environment as well.
* More Comfort in the Home: A new furnace is generally much quieter, and also heats the house a lot more evenly. Many people who have lived with an older furnace for a long time are very surprised at how much more comfortable their home feels after getting a new furnace.
* More Reliable: A new furnace will be much more reliable, and you won’t find yourself in the position of dealing with a broken furnace when it is freezing outside. With a new furnace, you can also begin a good maintenance schedule immediately, and know that your furnace has been well-taken care of from the beginning.
* Better Filtration: A new furnace is likely going to have a much better filtration system, giving your home better air quality right away. Our estimators can help you upgrade your filtration system as well if you are interested, but purchasing a new system will help right out of the gate.
* Rebates & Tax Credits: For 2016, we know for a fact that we can offer our clients great rebates and tax credits if you install your system before December 31st. Xcel is offering up to $400 in rebates for furnaces (an extra $120 rebate expires November 15, 2016), and you can ask your CPA about federal tax credits for this year as well.
