I just had the annual checkup on my approximately 60 year old Lennox gas furnace. The thing got a clean bill of health. It tested at 83 percent efficiency, which I think is probably remarkable. I’ve had a service contract with HomeServe for many years—ever since they took over for Brooklyn Inion Gas, when utilities no longer allowed to offer such contracts. I’m now paying >$600/year snd probably don’t brake even , but gave been happy with the coverage. Whenever I’ve needed services they’ve been quick to come; also, during the annual service they’ve sometimes replaced parts. I didn’t know needed replacement. I suspect their service would be especially advantageous for those who have steam or hit water boilers, which are far more complicated to maintain than my furnace.

That’s a really well thought out analysis; thank you.
