First and foremost, it depends on the type of furnace you currently have and how old it is, the brand/model, along with the overall condition. Generally speaking — Electric furnaces should be replaced every 15 years, Gas every 18, and Oil every 20. Regular professional maintenance is the #1 thing you can do to ensure you get the most out of your furnace.
Such an important question, because unfortunately it’s too common for homeowners to have the wrong size; either being too powerful or not quite powerful enough. Furnace power is measured in British Thermal Units, or BTUs, and honestly you should have a professional do the calculations unless you’ve been trained on how to account for every variable in the home.
Absolutely. We’ve been serving Northern California homeowners for almost twenty years, so we’re extremely familiar with energy efficiency when it comes to smart thermostats, air conditioners, heaters and much more. We’ll gladly help you choose an updated furnace with incredibly high Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratings of 90 and higher (Federal minimum is 80%).
Although this can get complex depending on the type/model of furnace you have, generally speaking it could be one of a handful of possibilities – the thermostat’s fan setting isn’t on automatic, the pilot light went out, no gas is making it into the furnace, etc. Our technicians are quick when it comes to furnace diagnosis.
You likely smell it when turning on the furnace initially as the colder months set in. It’s normal to smell that burning smell in this case after the furnace has been sitting and collecting dust all summer long. To be safe, consider having Service Champions do a Fall tuneup where we can thoroughly clean it.
For homeowners who would rather put their AC & Heater maintenance on auto-pilot, our MVP program offers a host of benefits including guaranteed service response within 24 hours. You’ll also get deep discounts, priority installs, annual tuneups, professional inspections, our 5-year ‘100% money-back guarantee’ and so much more.
