So when you call one of our Long Island furnace repair specialists, we'll perform all repairs promptly and professionally, with workmanship we can guarantee is the best around. We'll help you save money on the energy costs of heating your home, and the cost of furnace replacements.

Furnace Lifespans and Warning Signs

The average furnace will last twenty to thirty years. But depending on how much maintenance the furnace receives, that number can drop by 50%. The lifespan of your Long Island furnace decreases as it experiences more problems that aren't handled as quickly as possible. So you'll not just notice less efficiency, but you'll have to replace it much sooner. If your furnace is ten to fifteen years old, you should have an inspection to make sure it's not time for a replacement, and see how much longer you can expect to have your furnace.

(Yearly Long Island furnace inspections will help ensure your furnace has the longest possible life span, which will save you money on more expensive repairs down the road.)

One thing you need to watch out for is a rise in your energy costs. If you're paying more for heating but not heating any more than usual, it's probably because your furnace is inefficient. Often, this can be fixed with repairs. But sometimes, it's an indicator that you'll need a replacement. Also watch out for buzzing sounds coming from the unit, soot or dust build-up, or rust accumulation around the area.

These are all indicators of larger problems, and the sooner you take care of them, the less damage will have been done. And that means you'll spend less on repairs.

Oil to Gas Conversion for your Long Island Furnace

If you're using oil in your furnace to heat your home, you're spending too much money. Oil is much more expensive than gas, and it's less efficient. The cost of converting your furnace from oil to gas powered will be largely overshadowed by the money you save on your energy costs. Our Long Island furnace repair technicians can help you with this conversion.
