Furnace Replacements
A furnace is a device that heats the interior of buildings by circulating hot water or air through ducts to every part of the building. A furnace can rumble in the basement, thereby passing heat up through the house’s radiators. Almost every house in cold climates has a heating system (commonly a furnace) to warm or heat up their rooms during winter.
Categories Of A Furnace
- Natural Draft: The first category of furnace consists of riveted steel or cast-iron heat exchangers which are built within an outer shell of steel, masonry, or brick.
- Forced-Air: The second category is the forced air with an atmospheric burner style and sectional steel or cast-iron heat exchanger.
- Forced Draft: The third category is the forced draft which is a mid-efficiency furnace with a multi-speed blower and steel heat exchanger.
- Condensing: The fourth category is the condensing or high-efficiency furnace. It can operate from 89% to 98% fuel efficiency.
Life Expectancy Of A Furnace
Generally, what defines a furnace is the heat exchanger, a key component in the furnace. The life expectancy of the heat exchanger is about 15 years, with a high-end life expectancy of 20 years if properly maintained. It is highly advisable to always do a proper servicing and furnace tune-up in order to increase its life expectancy.
