HVAC systems last between 10 and 30 years, with an average life span of 20 years. However, the components of an HVAC system have different life expectancies. For example, a heat pump lasts between 10 and 20 years on average, while a furnace might last between 15 and 30 years.

If you have a closed-system boiler that needs an expansion tank to work, you cannot run your boiler without it (not without the risk of extensive damage and even explosions). Your options include moving the boiler to another spot, rerouting boiler piping to a more open area, or completing a remodel around the boiler to create more space for the tank.

One of the easiest ways to determine which type of furnace will work best for your home is to contact a professional in your area. Many HVAC companies offer free consultations to help potential customers determine if they need a new system and which type would work best for their home and the community’s climate.
