While heating systems are designed to last for a long time, they can develop problems like most other appliances. An old furnace may not be heating your home as it used to, or you may find yourself calling up HVAC professionals frequently for repairs. A unit that is not functioning properly will also use up more energy to heat your home, boosting your energy bills every month.<\/p>\n<p>If you suspect that your furnace may be due for replacement, the experts at Galmiche &amp; Sons can help you.

The older your heating systems, the more the chances of it breaking down. The best way to avoid going without heat during the winter is to upgrade your heater to a modern, more efficient one.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you aren&rsquo;t currently experiencing problems with your furnace, you may want to upgrade your heater soon if your furnace is well past its prime, as this will ensure efficiency and performance.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_Have_a_Furnace_with_Low_AFUE_Ratings\"><\/span>You Have a Furnace with Low AFUE Ratings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A furnace&#8217;s efficiency is reflected by its annual fuel utilization efficiency or AFUE. This number indicates how much fuel is used by the furnace for heating your home in the winter. For instance, a high-efficiency furnace that has 98 percent AFUE generates 98 BTUs of heat per 100 BTUs of the fuel it uses. The rest of the fuel (gas) is lost due to flue emissions or outdoors. A furnace with a higher AFUE has higher efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>Higher efficiency furnaces are also the key to lowering your energy costs and prolonging the system&#8217;s lifespan. Older heating systems may have a lower AFUE rating of between 56 and 70 percent that could be increasing your energy bills.<\/p>\n<p>A top reason to upgrade your heater is to invest in an energy-efficient option that lowers utility bills while ensuring efficient heating in your home.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_Energy_Bills_Are_Rising\"><\/span>Your Energy Bills Are Rising<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/why-you-should-upgrade-your-heater-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"When Should You Upgrade Your Heater\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-10447\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/why-you-should-upgrade-your-heater-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/why-you-should-upgrade-your-heater-2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you have a furnace with a high AFUE but are experiencing steadily rising energy bills, the culprits could be worn-out equipment, faulty parts, or a dirty air filter.
