If you are considering a new natural gas air conditioner, furnace, or any number of other natural gas appliances, the last thing you need during the hot summer is equipment that constantly breaks down or one that doesn’t work properly during a brutal winter.
If you find a model you like, do a quick online search to read reviews from real owners of the equipment. The reviews will give you an unbiased opinion of the product and whether or not you can trust it in your home. You can also ask friends and family about their natural gas appliances. They might be able to give you great tips on which brands to search for and which ones to avoid!
Natural Gas Appliance & Energy Efficiency
Believe it or not, new natural gas appliances can actually help you save money. According to ENERGY STAR, a program run by the EPA, when homeowners choose energy-efficient products they can save around one-third on their energy bills. When you buy natural gas appliances with an ENERGY STAR rating, you are getting highly energy-efficient products that can help to lower your monthly operating costs. When your appliances use fuel more efficiently, that can lower costs even more for you without a compromise in performance. Energy-efficient natural gas appliances can even help offset initial product costs with the savings on your energy bill, so they are a great choice for your home!
Warranties for Natural Gas Appliances
What happens if your natural gas furnace breaks down? Will the manufacturer replace the parts for free or are you on your own? Make sure to read warranty information before you purchase and compare between different models. You might find one manufacturer has a much longer warranty than another, which could save you money on repairs in the long-term. Also, make sure to read the fine print. A warranty that seems too good to be true might be exactly that!
If you’re looking for additional coverage on top of the appliance warranties, consider UGI EnergyLink’s HVAC Service Plans.
