It’s been a frigid winter in Nashville, with temperatures dipping down to the single digits on more than a handful of nights this year. It’s on those nights when one comes to really appreciate a well-functioning, efficient HVAC system.
If you have a newer, well-maintained HVAC system, that’s great. But if you’re worried about the reliability and efficiency of your heating equipment, it may be time to consider a replacement system, before you find yourself in need of emergency HVAC service in the middle of a cold winter night.
When is it time to replace your HVAC system?
ENERGY STAR® has a list of “certain telltale signs” that indicate it’s time to consider replacing your heating equipment, or improving the performance of your overall system.
Signs to replace your HVAC system include:
- A heat pump that is more than 10 years old
- A furnace or boiler that is more than 15 years old
- Select rooms in your home are too cold
- Your heating system is noisy
- Your equipment needs frequent repairs
- Your heating bills are rising
If you have any concerns about your HVAC system, we recommend getting your unit inspected by a contractor with licensed technicians, one who can help you determine the right size and type of HVAC system for your home.
Who is qualified to replace your HVAC System?
It’s a good idea to work with a contractor who maintains a close working relationship with top manufacturers of heating (and cooling) equipment. At Jewell Mechanical, Rheem®, American Standard®, and Mitsubishi Electric are just a few of the HVAC brands we service and install.
For example, we’re a Customer Care Dealer for American Standard in Middle Tennessee and a Diamond Dealer for Mitsubishi. We also service, maintain, and install systems for more than a dozen other top brands, including Carrier, Honeywell, Lennox, Samsung, and Trane, among others.
