[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where in the OP did she mention maintenance contracts?  Oh, wait, she didn't.  You just posted to be a jerk. [/quote]

Different poster, but you don't get bi-annual HVAC inspections just for the heck of it. Sounds like a service contract to most ppl with a clue.[/quote]

Hey there. OP here. It's not a service contract. I thought everyone had their furnace inspected on a regular basis for safety. My parents certainly always have. Issues like a CO buildup or refrigerant leak would either be dangerous or really expensive if not caught early on.

I have my furnace guy do it and I trust him. Plus, it's like $85, so that's not exactly breaking the bank. The repairs are the thing that can get expensive, but as a helpful PP pointed out, the age of the systems really is a better predictor than the age of the house. Thank you for that, PP from earlier page, you are right. The furnace is about 12 years old, so I would guess we should indeed be budgeting for more major repairs/eventual replacement in the future.[/quote]
