Will My Furnace Survive Another Winter?

Often a homeowner will ask us, "Do you think my heating system can make it through another winter?" Giving an accurate answer to this question is a bit like predicting the weather - the best anyone can do is to make an educated guess.

Most heating systems work so well that they are simply forgotten in the daily operation of a home. Should your heating system begin to break down frequently, the resulting inconvenience and expense can become a big problem for you and your family. While Schneider Heating technicians are available 24 hours a day for emergency repair calls, timely replacement of your unit is often the better choice.

There are several key factors to consider when evaluating your heating system, age being one of the most important. If your heating system is more that 15 years old, replacing it now may be a good investment. Many older systems are oversized, sometimes capable of heating twice as much house as you own. That's like buying an overcoat that is two sizes too large. Plus today's modern oil burners are considerably more efficient than those of only a decade ago.

If you experience hot and cold spots in your home, that too may be a symptom of a potential problem. Changes may have been made in your home over the years, such as additions or remodeling, that have led to an inefficient use of your heating system. Our equipment specialists can determine the appropriate load and efficiency level for your home. 

A new heating system offers clean, efficient operation. The resulting increase in efficiency with a new system can offset the cost in just a matter of a few years.

Don't let your heating system let you down.
