How often does my furnace need maintenance?

We recommend having your furnace serviced once or twice a year to reduce wear, prevent costly repairs , and ensure your heating system stays reliable for a long time. However, components like the air filters in your HVAC units do need to be replaced every one to three months to stay effective and not interfere with airflow.

Why isn't square footage enough to determine furnace size?

Square footage alone isn’t enough to determine furnace size because there are many factors that influence the needed size, such as: Budget Model and fuel type Home layout, square footage, and levels Age, state, and layout of ductwork Heating needs Before we replace or install anything, we ask a series of questions and do an inspection to determine the best air solutions for your needs and budget.

Do I need new ducts with a furnace replacement?

The need for new air ducts when replacing a furnace often depends on how well the air ducts have been maintained, whether the duct sealing is still working properly, and whether they are the right size for the furnace replacement. We inspect your air ducts at the start of our process and report back on whether any repairs are needed, whether the ducts need cleaning , and whether replacement is the right option.

Repair vs. Replace

One of the most common questions we get from our neighbors around Stockton is whether they need a furnace repair or if it is time for a furnace replacement. Some of the things we consider when thinking about repairs versus replacement are:

System age
Repairs are becoming more frequent
The cost of repairs is more than the system is worth
Rising energy bills
Is energy efficiency lower?
Frequency of previous maintenance

Older systems may keep running with ongoing repairs, but efficiency drops and energy use rises as the system ages. Modern systems are more reliable and will save you money in the long run.
