The Life Span of an Oil Furnace

Oil furnaces heat your house by burning oil that is stored in a tank situated outside your building. Oil furnaces are safe, efficient and long lasting, but like every other appliance you own, they don’t last forever. While producer warranties cover parts and service for specified amounts of time, oil furnaces often last much longer than this stage.

Oil Furnace Service Life

Many oil furnace manufacturers offer a 10-year warranty, but this does not always signify the actual lifespan of the chimney. The average life expectancy for a properly maintained oil furnace is usually 15 to 20 decades. Some furnaces may last as long as 25 decades. The secret to efficient performance of your oil furnace is yearly maintenance by a licensed HVAC technician.

Prolonging Service Life

Oil furnaces are a massive expense for most homeowners, but they usually possess a very long lifespan as long as you change the filter every two to three months and seek the services of an HVAC technician to inspect and keep your heating system at least once every year. To get the most out of your oil furnace, it’s also important that you’ve got the ideal size furnace for your property. If your furnace is too small, it works harder to maintain a steady temperature, and it will wear out faster than a furnace that’s the ideal size for your heating requirements.
