Furnace Articles

The average furnace lasts between 10 and 15 years. But did you know you can take steps to make it last longer? There is no shortcut or hack to increase your furnace’s longevity.

If your furnace is producing a strange smell, you should always treat it with caution. While the cause for the odor may be benign, it could just as easily be harmful to inhale. When in doubt, always open windows to ensure ventilation, and evacuate your Wenatchee home.

You just discovered there is a puddle of water on the floor in front of your furnace. What does this mean? Why would your furnace be leaking water?

It’s understandable that maintenance tasks often fall by the wayside. Many East Wenatchee homeowners follow the mantra of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Everyone is busy and many seemingly more important priorities tend to creep up every month to consume time and money.

Even though our Jacobs HVAC/R heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) experts are always here for you, as a Wenatchee homeowner, you should know at least a little something about your heating and cooling system.

Your furnace plays the key role in keeping you warm in your Wenatchee home, but even with routine maintenance, it does not last forever.
