Why Upgrade to a Gas Furnace?

Switching to a gas furnace from an oil furnace has several benefits:

Increased Efficiency: Modern gas furnaces are highly efficient. According to ENERGY STAR^®, some high-efficiency furnaces can achieve efficiency ratings of 98.5 percent, meaning nearly all the energy consumed is directly converted into heat for your home.

Lower Fuel Costs: Natural gas tends to be less expensive than oil, and because gas furnaces are more efficient, they use less fuel. This can result in lower heating costs.

Environmental Impact: Natural gas burns cleaner than oil, producing fewer emissions. Upgrading to a gas furnace can reduce your home’s carbon footprint.

Convenience and Safety: Gas furnaces eliminate the need for on-site fuel storage and are known for their reliability and safety when properly maintained.

Signs It Is Time to Upgrade Your Oil Furnace

Here are some signs that could indicate it is time to swap out your oil furnace for a gas furnace:

Aging System: If your oil furnace is over 15 years old, it is likely not as efficient as newer models. Aging systems can be prone to more breakdowns and require more frequent repairs.

Rising Energy Bills: An increase in your energy bills can be a sign that your furnace is losing efficiency. Newer gas furnaces are significantly more efficient, leading to potential savings on your energy costs.

Frequent Repairs: As furnaces age, the cost of repairs can add up. If you are calling your HVAC technician more often, investing in a new system could be more economical in the long run.

Inconsistent Heating: If some rooms in your home are colder than others or if you are constantly adjusting the thermostat, it could be a sign that your furnace can no longer distribute heat effectively.
