Frequently Asked Questions
My system is making strange noises, is that a problem?
Strange noises from your HVAC system, whether grinding, rattling, whistling, or banging, signal potential issues. HVAC systems have regular operating noises — central AC, for example, typically maintains a low hum during cooling cycles. Loud, abnormal, or persistent sounds often suggest underlying mechanical problems.
Should I repair or replace my current HVAC system?
Deciding between HVAC repair or replacement depends on several factors, such as the age of the system and the extent of the problem. If your system is approaching the end of its expected service life and experiencing frequent breakdowns, performance loss, or poor efficiency, replacement may be more cost-effective than repair long-term. Minor or one-off repairs, such as faulty sensors or thermostats, don’t usually necessitate a replacement.
What are my options for a more energy-efficient system?
There are several ways to improve your HVAC system’s energy efficiency. Upgrading to a high-efficiency air conditioner, furnace, heat pump, or mini-split typically makes the biggest immediate difference in energy efficiency. Regular maintenance also keeps your system running at optimal performance, minimizing strain and improving overall efficiency. Other options for enhanced HVAC energy efficiency include:
- Programmable or smart thermostats
- Zoning systems
- Ductwork insulation
- Home sealing and insulation improvements
What is the lifespan of an HVAC system?
The service life of an HVAC system will vary depending on the type and quality of the system. Furnaces range between 15 and 30 years depending on the fuel type, with electric furnaces typically lasting longer than gas units. Central AC systems last 15 to 20 years, with efficiency and reliability gradually declining after that point. Heat pumps range between 10 and 15 years, while mini-splits can last up to 20 years.
How often should I schedule HVAC maintenance?
Schedule maintenance annually for both heating and cooling systems. Complete furnace maintenance in the fall, preferably ahead of peak heating season — likewise, schedule an AC tune-up before the summer heat arrives. Systems that provide both heating and cooling, such as mini-splits or heat pumps, may need maintenance twice per year depending on usage.
