Spring means spending more time outdoors enjoying the moderate temperatures while partaking of your favorite warm weather activities. Come summer? “Forget this outdoor nonsense…let’s get back inside where it’s nice and cool!”
And that pretty much sums up the Dallas-Fort Worth area’s warm weather season. Still, while you’re enjoying the calm and comfort of indoor air conditioning, take a few minutes to consider how well your furnace performed this past winter. Did heating costs go up substantially? Did you have a repair issue or two? Has your system reached or exceeded it’s expected lifespan?
If so, you have multiple good reasons to consider replacing your heating system long before the return of fall and winter.
Furnace Savings
Just like a retail store that offers discounts on going-out-of-season inventory, HVAC manufacturers often reduce prices on last year’s models to make room for new and improved inventory. Add in the fact that heating system installations are generally not in high demand during the warmer months, and you could save yourself a pretty penny by updating yours now.
Added Convenience
Transitional seasons are the most common times for scheduling annual preventive maintenance, while the winter brings on repeated calls for emergency repair work and system replacement. If you’re one of the many who need to have your heating system replaced during peak season, it may not happen as quickly and conveniently as you might like. Instead, avoid the rush and schedule your replacement during the off-season.
Give Yourself Time to Compare
Sure, you could roll the dice and see if your heating system can make it through one more winter. If it can’t, however, you may find yourself scrambling to get the job done…and that often leads to decisions you wish you could do over. Replace it this summer, however, and you won’t feel rushed.
