Furnace Replacement Quick Tips for Property Managers

Hey there, property owners and managers of Santa Rosa! If your commercial building’s heating system is starting to be more frustrating and less functioning, it might be time to think about a furnace replacement.

At Northbay Comfort, we’ve been helping local businesses owners and property managers like you stay warm and energy-efficient for over 10 years. So we know the ins and outs of furnace replacement in Santa Rosa CA, and we’re here to make it easy.

Below are our quick, no-stress tips to help you stay ahead of the game.

Tip #1: Don’t Wait for a Full Breakdown

While a full breakdown is a sure sign that your furnace needs replace, waiting until it goes out could leave you in a precarious (and potentially dangerous!) situation. Better to keep an eye out for signs that it needs replaced and take care of it early.

If your furnace is:

• Over 15 years old
• Making weird noises or smells
• Racking up repair bills
• Heating unevenly or not at all

…it’s time to start planning for a replacement. Waiting until it dies during a cold snap is a recipe for tenant frustration.

Tip #2: Pick the Right Size Furnace

Bigger isn’t always better, but neither is smaller. The right furnace for your commercial or residential space will depend on the size, layout, and how it’s used.

Let us help with a load calculation so your new system isn’t working overtime (or underperforming). A good fit = better efficiency and lower bills.
