I am not sure about the exact age of our furnace, but I suppose it’s old.
This furnace came with the house, which I bought 13 years ago.
When I asked our Heating in addition to Air Conditioning serviceman how aged he thought our furnace was, he said he could not tell for sure. Obviously, the two of us knew it was at least 13 years old. However, by looking at it closely, he guessed it was about 15 years old. I didn’t love how aged it was, because I never knew when it was going to stop running. Every fall, when I switched on the furnace after a long season of it laying in silence, I feared it not turning on at all, or needing service abruptly after. The Heating in addition to Air Conditioning professional asked myself and others a few questions about the furnace before suggesting anything, then first, he wanted to suppose how often it needed to be repaired. Then, he wanted to suppose about our weekly energy bills. I told him that it needed to be repaired at least twice per season in addition to that our energy bills seemed to get higher in addition to higher as the years passed by… Based on our answers, the Heating in addition to Air Conditioning professional recommended that I look into buying a new a single at the end of the season. It was costing myself and others more money to keep our current furnace rather than buying a new a single. A brand new furnace would cost more upfront, but it would save myself and others money in the long run. I suppose it’s time to start saving!
