Is It Time for a New Heater? Key Signs to Watch For

If you are unsure whether your heating system needs a tune-up or needs to be replaced, it may be time to consult with a professional. Typically, if heating units are more than 10-15 years old and are having frequent issues, we recommend a replacement.

Consider these indicators for heater replacement:

The cost of repairs: A good rule to keep in mind is that if the cost of repairs is at least half the cost of a new unit, you should consider replacing your heater instead.
Rising energy bills: If you've had the same heater for a long time, you'll likely notice your heating bills steadily increase year over year. A new model will be far more energy-efficient, potentially saving you a considerable amount of money over the long run.
Strange noises: If you hear banging, buzzing, whistling, or other strange noises coming from your heater, you should at the very least call a professional to take a look. This is likely a sign that a major component has failed or is about to fail.
Yellow pilot flame: The pilot light for your heater should only ever burn blue – if you ever see it burning yellow, turn your heater off immediately and call a technician. This is a sign that you're dealing with a carbon monoxide leak.

Installation Timeline: How Long to Expect for Your Santa Fe Furnace Setup

Installing a furnace in Santa Fe takes 1 to 3 days. The time can vary depending on the type of furnace, the complexity of the installation, and the installer's availability. During the installation, the old furnace (if there is one) is removed, and the new furnace is installed, connected to the ductwork, and tested.

Sometimes unexpected problems can arise that can delay the installation. It's a good idea to work with an experienced installer who can give you a more accurate idea of how long your installation will take.

Maintain Your Heater's Performance: The Importance of Regular Maintenance

The best way to maximize the return on investment in your heating system is to keep it in prime condition through regular maintenance. Waiting only to have your heater serviced when it is broken is a sure way to severely reduce both its lifespan and its efficiency to perform its job. The advantages of getting a heating tune up before the cold season hits far outweigh the costs. The costs are themselves offset by avoiding repairs or an untimely system replacement.

Your Trusted Heating Installation Partner in Santa Fe

In Santa Fe, where the high desert climate can bring chilly nights even in the warmer months, having a reliable heating system is essential for your comfort. Local residents often face unique challenges, such as the need for energy-efficient solutions that can withstand the fluctuating temperatures. The city local government encourages energy conservation, and upgrading to a modern heating system can not only enhance your comfort but also align with local sustainability goals.

As you consider heating installation, it's important to be aware of common issues that homeowners in our area encounter. Many families report rising energy bills, which can be a sign that their heating system is outdated or inefficient. Additionally, with the potential for sudden cold snaps, having a dependable heating system is crucial. If your heater is over 10 years old, it may be time to explore new options that can provide better performance and lower utility costs.

Local resources, such as the Santa Fe Energy and Sustainability Office, offer valuable information on energy-efficient heating solutions and may even provide incentives for upgrading your system. By staying informed and proactive, you can ensure your home remains a warm haven during the winter months.

At Paul's Plumbing & Heating, Inc., we understand the specific needs of Santa Fe residents.
