Call Thiele Heating & Air Conditioning for Furnace Replacement in Westfield, IN

Most furnaces fail during the coldest days of the year. Under the strain of icy winds, aging components can break and shut down your HVAC system. If this happens, calling on Thiele Heating & Air Conditioning connects you with one of the oldest and most reliable HVAC companies in central Indiana. 

Our team of talented support specialists and highly skilled technicians understands the safety of your family and security of your home rely on dependable heating. 

Causes for Furnace Replacement 

For homeowners that are considering furnace replacement, there are many reasons that prompt a new purchase. While most homeowners do not consider purchasing a new furnace until a breakdown occurs, savvy homeowners may plan ahead based on four common causes for furnace replacement.

Increased Energy Usage

A steady or sudden spike in energy consumption often indicates a furnace is straining to run. Modern furnaces are far more energy efficient than older models. Although a furnace is one of the most expensive appliances in your home, reducing energy usage saves on utility bills. Monitoring your energy usage and comparing utility bills to the prior year often warn you that a furnace is about to break down. 

Furnace Is Over 15 Years Old

With proper maintenance, high-quality furnaces generally run for 10-15 years. Since components often wear at the same rate, older furnaces lose performance, use more energy and are more prone to breaking down. Once a furnace is 10 years old, planning for the inevitable replacement is a wise choice. At 15 years old, installing a new furnace before the harsh chill of an Indiana winter may avoid the stress, discomfort and surprise of a furnace replacement.

Frequent Repairs

One of the most common complaints we hear is frequent breakdowns. Most components within a furnace wear at the same rate. If you replace one part, there is a good chance another part will soon break. Thiele is careful to inspect the overall condition of furnaces we maintain and repair. We often advise homeowners if we suspect a furnace is older or excessively worn. If you experience multiple repairs in one year, planning ahead to replace the furnace is advised.

Indoor Air and Comfort

Uneven heating, cold spots throughout your home and poor indoor air quality are common symptoms of a failing furnace. As furnaces age, the system is less efficient. Without the necessary performance to heat your entire home, rooms become unevenly heated and sometimes entire spaces of your house are cold zones. If you observe these signs, a new furnace will restore comfort and provide a cleaner air quality throughout your home.

What to Expect From a New Furnace

A furnace replacement in early fall before temperatures drop is less invasive than a furnace installation. During an heating replacement, expect your home to be without heat for at least half a day. This is another reason planning ahead is beneficial. Both an furnace replacement and a scheduled installation follow similar steps:

Call Thiele Heating & Air Conditioning

Once you contact our team, we promptly dispatch technicians to assess your property. A furnace is carefully matched to suit your home including fitting into the existing space; performing efficiently for the square footage and design of your home; and meeting your expectations in features and function. Many homeowners want the most energy-efficient furnace in Westfield, Indiana. Our technicians provide a full consultation to customize the new furnace to your lifestyle.  

Removal of Existing Furnace

Our technicians will disconnect your old furnace from all systems including electric, gas lines and air ducts. The furnace is then removed from your property for disposal.

Installation of New Furnace

The surface area is cleaned before our technicians mount the new furnace securely in place. Ductwork is typically required to optimize performance and calibrate the new furnace. Some homes benefit from updated air ducts, vents and other modifications to improve performance. The furnace is mounted and connected to fuel and energy sources. 

Calibration

Using state-of-the-art equipment, Thiele Heating & Air Conditioning tests all functions and calibrates the new furnace to perform in your space. This process takes time and expertise but assures an ideal indoor environment and comfortable temperatures throughout your home.
