No furnace is meant to last forever, regardless of how durably it’s built. Once a gas furnace is older than 15 years, it’s time to start thinking about a replacement. And if a furnace is older than 20 years, it’s time to stop thinking about a replacement and just replace it.
Rust and age go hand-in-hand a lot, but when it comes to your furnace, rust is an indicator that it’s time to call for help. Your furnace should not develop rust, even if it has some age to it.
Congratulations! You have chosen to add radiant heating to your home in Eugene, OR. Maybe the idea of toasty floors in the middle of winter won you over, or knowing that a radiant heating system won’t aggravate the allergy sufferers in your home.

Fall brings to mind a lot of seasonal kinds of things: football, apple picking, and comfort food, just to name some. But it is also heater maintenance season, and with chilly nights already here, cooler days are soon to follow. Is your heating system ready to work?
It may seem a far way off still, but it really isn’t: the cold weather. If you ended last heating season with a heating system that barely made it, it’s probably time to start reviewing your choices for a replacement heating system.
Our daytime temperatures are finally starting to climb, but our nights are still cool enough to warrant the continued use of our heating systems. Spring is a great time to assess home’s needs, and if you found that you were struggling with your heating system this winter, it may be time to consider a replacement system.
Have you ever noticed your furnace behaving strangely? Shutting itself on and off every couple of minutes, for example? If you have, you’ve got a pretty serious problem. That behavior is one of the most damaging things that can happen to heating systems, known as “short-cycling.” So what is short-cycling, really?
