Let’s face it. Furnaces wear out over time. Some give reliable service for 20 years or more. Others may last fewer than 10 years. Typically, furnaces made by the more reliable brands will give you 10-15 years of solid performance. When it is time to replace your furnace, you want to know what brand of the furnace will last in your home. To help answer some of your questions about furnace brands, we have put together some helpful information as you move forward toward a new furnace purchase.
While deciding which furnace brand is best for your home, it is important to consider some key aspects of furnace design and function. Some of the main factors which need consideration include energy efficiency, cost of the new furnace, the warranty offered, expected lifespan, and the source of the fuel which is used by the furnace.
