HVAC Replace vrs Repair

Deciding whether to repair or replace your furnace  can indeed be a challenging decision. As an HVAC service technician, I’ve encountered countless customers facing this dilemma.

As a general rule of thumb, if the repair cost exceeds  50% of the price of a new furnace , it’s often wiser to opt for a replacement 1 .

Are You Thinking About Buying a Fixer-Upper?

  If you’re thinking of buying your first home, it’s an exciting time. You’ve probably scoured real estate sites looking at available properties. If desirable homes are out of your budget, you may consider buying a fixer-upper. Although these homes will need work, their purchase prices are usually significantly lower than homes in good repair.   Are You Looking to Buy a Fixer-Upper?

This tells you everything the inspector finds that needs t...
