As energy prices continue to rise, ensuring that your equipment operates at its peak is critical. Upgrading your furnace could save you money. Modern furnaces offer a range of benefits to customers, including, but not limited to:
Better Efficiency
Simply put, new-age systems, especially our Carrier-branded furnaces, are much more efficient than older generations, meaning you can heat your home during the fall and winter months at a much lower cost than in previous years with the old unit. For example, if your current furnace is operating at 80% efficiency and costing you $180 per month, switching to a high-efficiency furnace operating at 95% efficiency could save you approximately $27 per month (15% of $150). Hence, it’s worth considering as a viable option to reduce your energy expenses in the long run.
Reduces Your Repair Costs
Older units typically demand more frequent maintenance, leading to a significant expense increase over time. Apart from repair costs, you also must consider the service call expenses; old units can become a never-ending cycle of repairs. A new furnace can offer worry-free heating for approximately five years or more. It’s worth the investment for those looking for long-term cost savings.
Increases Your Overall Home Value
There has been a significant shift in the housing market in recent years, favoring sellers more than buyers. If you are considering selling your home, it may be worth investing in a new furnace beforehand. This could improve your home’s overall value and make it more appealing to potential buyers looking for a move-in-ready property. Investing in a new furnace can be an intelligent decision when selling your home in a competitive market.
