Is It Time to Replace Your HVAC System?

If you’re not quite ready to spend a lot of money on a brand new system, you can also purchase a home service agreement (commonly referred to as a home warranty), which will save you a lot on these unexpected repairs.

With any type of HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning), there is going to be some regular maintenance and perhaps the need for the occasional repair. Buying a new HVAC system is almost always expensive and should not be an impulse decision. Take care of yours and watch out for potential issues.

  • Unfortunately, appliances age, and there’s nothing we can do about it.

    HVAC systems are not exceptions to that rule. After some time, they just get old and don’t function as efficiently as a newer system would. If your system is over 10 years old, it may be time to consider getting a replacement. Newer systems have a lot more functionality and variety to suit your individual needs.

    If there are strange noises coming from your HVAC system, it’s definitely cause for concern. This could be due to a number of things. It could just be a dirty filter that needs to be replaced or a leak somewhere. However, it is likely due to your system beginning to wear out. You could get a professional to come and check if there’s anything wrong.

  • Watch Out for These Signs That Your System Is in Need of Repair/replacement!

    If your system begins to frequently require repairs, especially if it’s multiple times a year, it should be cause for concern. This really adds up, especially if you don’t have a home warranty. Also, it can be incredibly inconvenient having to worry about constant repairs. Living without air conditioning/heating can be very uncomfortable depending on your climate.

    If there are strange noises coming from your HVAC system, it’s definitely cause for concern. This could be due to a number of things. It could just be a dirty filter that needs to be replaced or a leak somewhere. However, it is likely due to your system beginning to wear out. You could get a professional to come and check if there’s anything wrong.

Your HVAC system is likely an important part of your household, so making sure that it’s functioning properly is vital.

  It’s a common mistake to confuse home warranty with home insurance. However, it’s important to note the differences to prevent any future problems with filing for claims. Homeowners Insurance There is a lot that could go wrong with owning a home. Natural or man-made disasters can cause catastrophic damage. A homeowners insurance plan aims to protect against that. When you finance a home, homeowners insurance is often mandatory.   Generally, it will cover events that you can’t control such as tornadoes, hurricanes, freezes, fires, floods, and theft. It will protect both the physical structure of your home and the belongings inside it. According to the Federal Reserve Bureau , homeowners insurance ranges from $300 to $1000 yearly on average. If something happens to your home and it gets severely damaged, the insurance company will provide a payout.   You have to file a claim with your home insurance company when something goes wrong, just as you would with your home warranty company.
