Key Signs It's Time for a Heating System Replacement

It can be difficult to know when to repair versus when to replace. An old or failing system will often give clear warning signs that a complete replacement is the most cost-effective and sensible path forward. Watching for these indicators can help you make an informed decision before a complete system breakdown occurs.

  •  Your System’s Age: Most furnaces have a lifespan of 15-20 years, while heat pumps typically last 10-15 years. If your unit is within or beyond this range, it’s operating on borrowed time, with efficiency decreasing and the risk of failure increasing each year.
  •  Rising Energy Bills: Have your heating costs climbed steadily without a change in your usage habits? As heating systems age, they lose efficiency and must work harder and longer to produce the same amount of heat, directly impacting your utility bills.
  •  Frequent and Costly Repairs: If you find yourself calling for service multiple times a year, the cumulative cost of repairs can quickly approach the price of a new unit. A good rule of thumb is if a repair costs 50% or more of a new system, replacement is the smarter financial choice.
  •  Inconsistent Temperatures and Cold Spots: Are some rooms in your home cozy while others remain uncomfortably cold? An aging heater often loses its ability to distribute air evenly, resulting in inconsistent heating and a noticeable lack of comfort.
  •  Unusual Noises or Odors: Loud banging, rattling, or grinding sounds can indicate serious mechanical problems. Likewise, persistent musty or burning smells signal issues with your unit's components or ductwork that should be addressed immediately.
  •  Visible Rust or Cracks: Physical signs of corrosion or cracks on the unit, especially around the heat exchanger, are a serious safety concern. A cracked heat exchanger can leak carbon monoxide into your home, creating a hazardous environment.

The Lasting Benefits of a Modern Heating System

Upgrading your heating system is more than just a repair; it’s an investment in your home’s comfort, safety, and value. Modern heating technology offers significant advantages over the outdated equipment found in many homes.

  •  Superior Energy Efficiency: Today’s furnaces and heat pumps are built to meet strict efficiency standards. A new high-efficiency unit can drastically reduce your energy consumption, leading to substantial savings on your monthly heating bills.
  •  Unmatched Home Comfort: Experience consistent, reliable warmth throughout your entire home. New systems provide superior airflow and temperature control, eliminating cold spots and maintaining your desired comfort level effortlessly.
  •  Improved Indoor Air Quality: Modern heating systems offer advanced filtration options that capture dust, pollen, pet dander, and other airborne contaminants, helping your family breathe cleaner, healthier air.
  •  Enhanced Reliability and Peace of Mind: A new system installed by professionals comes with robust warranties and the promise of dependable performance for years to come, freeing you from the stress of unexpected breakdowns.
  •  Quiet Operation: Advanced engineering and insulation make new heating units significantly quieter than their older counterparts, creating a more peaceful indoor environment.

We believe in a transparent and thorough process that ensures your new heating system is perfectly suited for your Pasadena home and installed for optimal performance.

  • In-Depth Home Assessment: Our process begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your home. We analyze your existing system, inspect your ductwork, and perform calculations based on your home’s square footage, layout, and insulation to determine the precise heating load required.
  • Personalized System Consultation: We discuss your comfort goals, energy efficiency priorities, and budget. We then present you with clear, easy-to-understand options, explaining the benefits of different systems like gas furnaces or energy-efficient heat pumps that are ideal for Pasadena’s climate.
  • Safe Removal of Old Equipment: Our certified technicians will safely disconnect and remove your old heating unit and all related components, ensuring the area is clean and prepared for the new installation while following all environmental disposal regulations.
  • Precision Installation: We install your new heating system with meticulous attention to detail. Every connection is secured, and every component is calibrated according to the manufacturer’s exact specifications and local building codes to guarantee safety and peak efficiency.
  • System Testing and Final Walkthrough: Once installed, we rigorously test the new system through multiple cycles to confirm flawless operation.

Ruben from Piggies went above and beyond when he came to provide us with a quote for doing some duct work. He was also able to identify the underlying problem as to why we have been having a major issue with our heat in our office suite. He took photos, explained the issue, what he could and could not do, and what to communicate to our property owner. He spent far longer answering questions and finding the source of an issue that wasn't even the reason why he was onsite. EXCELLENT
CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I recently had my air conditioning unit serviced by Ruben, and I couldn't be more impressed. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and professional. He arrived on time, was incredibly knowledgeable, and explained the issue in a way that was easy to understand. He worked efficiently, resolved the problem quickly, and made sure everything was functioning perfectly before leaving.
I highly recommend this company for anyone needing AC repair or maintenance. I'll definitely be calling them again for any future needs!

First of all I NEVER do reviews or rate any company or product. But, Piggies Air Conditioning did an amazing job at a GREAT price! I always get at least 3 estimates, and in this particular situation, I had at least 5. These guys were the most reasonable by several thousand dollars, with BETTER equipment that the others! Our ac and heat package is at least a 17 seer system, which is top of the line! I've been in the construction business my entire life, and dealt with many companies from all the trades. It really doesn't get any better than Piggies! This company and its personnel were on time, and courteous, which is hard to come by these days. Ruben, Luis were very professional, and I was in constant contact with them throughout the job. The Daikin product is one of the best in the world! I'm giving Piggies two thumbs way up!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Piggies Air Conditioning, and I can't recommend them enough! From the moment I contacted Ruben, their team displayed an impressive level of knowledge and experience in the field. They answered all of my MANY questions with ease and friendliness and provided insights that really helped me understand my options and the scope of work as a whole. The communication throughout the process was fantastic. They kept me informed every step of the way, which was especially reassuring as a new homeowner navigating this kind of installation for the first time. I felt confident in their expertise and reccomendations they presented for our new HVAC sytems. When it came time for the installation, I was blown away by how efficient and professional the team was. They did a fantastic job with the installation itself and left the area spotless afterward. It was clear they respected our home as if it were their own, which is surprisingly rare in certain service fields, and greatly appreciated. Overall, my experience with Piggies Air Conditioning was excellent, and I would gladly recommend them to anyone in need of HVAC services.

The pricing was transparent, and I didn't feel like there were any hidden costs, which is always a plus when it comes to service calls like these. Highly recommend this company!

Overall great job replacing our antiquated AC unit. The evaluation and detail is a big deal to us. Rueben explained all the techincal aspects and gave us great
recommendations and feedback. The actual installation was painless and unremarkable, his AC experts got it done, got it cleaned and most importantly got it right. Rueben even went a step further to assure we had
protection from the coming rain, that is service unheard of these days. His price was competitive and a REAL value for the service we recieved. Using anyone else for your AC needs, would be a huge mistake. We thank them again and will recommend to everyone.

I am a realtor in Los Angeles, and while we were getting ready to sell my clients home in Pasadena, an inspector from another company backed into my clients air conditioner. I was referred to Piggies AC by another trusted client so I called them. I talked to Ruben, he answered the phone right away, answered some of my initial questions, and was able to get me an appointment just two days later. On site Ruben was there on time, was extremely knowledgeable, And told us the best course of action to get the AC unit back in good working order. A day or two later he sent us an invoice and his prices were very reasonable. I am happy, Client is happy, thank you Ruben!

Leaving a 5-star review just after the initial inspection because I was blown away by Ruben's professionalism.
Echoing a lot of the other reviews here, Piggies Air Conditioning responds so quickly to requests (even though I actually accidentally sent in multiple requests on my side without responding, oops!)
They were able to come do a FREE energy audit and initial inspection on the same day and Ruben was amazing at explaining his thoughts on our house's situation and what he thought was worth the money and wasn't worth the money.
I truly felt like he was trying to help me find the best solution to our issues instead of just trying to upsell us on everything and anything.
I'm definitely recommending this business to anyone I know if they want a trustworthy and realistic service, value, and quality.
