WHEN SHOULD YOU REPLACE YOUR AC?

HVAC CONSIDERATIONS

Once your HVAC system passes 10 years of age, repairs may start to become more frequent. Not only is this a sign that your unit is nearing the end of its expected lifespan, but the frequency of repairs means more costly maintenance.

Consider This: If the repair costs of your unit are more than a third of the total price of buying a new HVAC system, then it may be best to get a full replacement instead of scheduling repairs. This can be more cost-effective, especially if your unit has been breaking down frequently over the last few years.

Of course, you can still choose to keep your old unit, but another reason why our HVAC technicians will recommend a full replacement is because newer systems are always more efficient. A new unit will lower your monthly energy bills and save you up to 40 percent in cooling costs.

CHOOSING WHEN TO GET A REPLACEMENT

Spring weather tends to be mild, resulting in fewer people using their HVAC system during this season. This decrease in demand means you can call your trusted technician and have your system serviced or replaced almost immediately! You could choose to wait until the hot summer months, but by then your local HVAC companies will be busy answering emergency maintenance calls, putting technicians and parts in high demand.
