Are you still running a heater that was installed in your house decades ago? It\u2019s time to think about an upgrade. Upgrading your decades-old heating system will almost certainly result in a significant increase in performance. And now is the perfect time to do so!<\/p>\n
One major reason to upgrade a heater that is decades old is for your safety. A new system with modern safety features and recently upgraded ventilation and connections is sure to have a lower change of being responsible for gas leaks and carbon monoxide leaks. After an installation, your system is carefully inspected for performance and safety purposes.<\/p>\n
Older heating systems can have quite a few problems. Chances are that you will really notice a difference when you replace a heater that is one or two decades old with a brand new model. You may be surprised at the energy efficiency today\u2019s heating systems can achieve.<\/p>\n
Moreover, you probably won\u2019t have to deal with repairs for quite a while. Choose a system with a high AFUE (annual fuel utilization efficiency) rating and special features like variable speed settings and your heating system will work better than you\u2019ve ever experienced from your older heater.<\/p>\n
Finally, now is a great time to schedule a heating system upgrade because rebates are available! As we mentioned last week, you can get up to $250 back on qualifying purchases of a new gas furnace <\/a>as long as it meets requirements and the system is ENERGY STAR certified (for Colorado Springs Utilities customers only). Additional utility rebates are available as well. Call us for more information!<\/p>\n
