Heat pumps gradually become less efficient as they age, and they can end up costing you more in energy costs than it’s worth. A Big Bear heat pump replacement will often pay for itself, lowering the amount you’re spending each month to heat your home.
One of the first things you should consider if your deciding whether to replace your heat pump is how old it is. If it’s been used for more than ten years, even if it still runs well, you may be better off with a new unit. The physical life of a heat pump is often longer than its economic life.
When you’re deciding whether it’d be better for you to repair or replace your heat pump, consider the following:
- Over the long run, fuel costs are more likely to go up than down.
- As the heat pump gets older, repairs typically become more expensive and more frequent.
- Your new heat pump will be much more efficient and most likely come with a manufacturer’s warranty, saving you on both repairs and energy costs.
