When to Consider Having Your AC Replaced

There are a lot of things to consider when it comes to determining whether you need a new AC unit. If your HVAC system has been in place for 15 or more years, it may be time to consider upgrading to a new unit. Sometimes, with big appliances, like your HVAC, it is recommended to use what is called “the $5,000 rule,” which is taking the cost of the needed repair on your unit and multiplying that cost by the age of the equipment — if it is more than $5,000, you should consider a replacement. Beyond the cost of repairing equipment that has reached that age, newer units are much more energy-efficient and can end up saving you a lot on your energy bills. Most people find that the savings pay for the replacement in just a few years after a new, energy-efficient air conditioner installation.

7 Signs Your Air Conditioner Needs Replacement

If you notice any of the following signs with your air conditioner, it might be time to consider replacing it:

  • Age: Air conditioners typically last around 10-15 years with proper maintenance. If your unit is reaching or exceeding this age range, it may be less efficient and more prone to breakdowns, indicating it's time for a replacement.
  • Frequent Repairs: If you find yourself calling for repairs frequently or your air conditioner requires increasingly expensive repairs, it could be more cost-effective to invest in a new unit rather than continuously patching up an old one.
  • Increased Energy Bills: As air conditioners age, they become less efficient, leading to higher energy bills. If you've noticed a significant increase in your energy costs despite normal usage patterns, your AC unit may be nearing the end of its lifespan.
  • Poor Cooling Performance: If your air conditioner struggles to maintain a comfortable temperature or if certain rooms consistently feel warmer than others, it could indicate that the unit is no longer capable of effectively cooling your home, signaling the need for a replacement.
  • Strange Noises or Odors: Unusual noises such as grinding, banging, or squealing, as well as foul odors coming from the air conditioner, are signs of mechanical problems. These issues could be due to worn-out components or even mold growth within the unit, warranting a replacement.
  • Humidity Problems: Air conditioners also play a role in controlling humidity levels within your home. If you're experiencing excessive humidity despite your AC running, it might indicate that the unit is no longer functioning properly and needs to be replaced.
  • Visible Damage or Rust: Inspect your air conditioner for signs of visible damage, corrosion, or rust. External damage could be indicative of internal issues, and rust may suggest leaks or deterioration of components. In such cases, it's often more cost-effective to replace the unit rather than attempting repairs.

It's essential to consider these signs and consult with a qualified HVAC technician to determine the best course of action for your situation.

Reasons You Might Need Professional Air Conditioning Installation

Obtaining a new HVAC system is not a simple decision, because the purchase is a large one. While AC repair seems more affordable, at some point, it will be time for a new unit. You deserve comfort in your home, and air quality and temperature play huge roles in home comfort. 

Here are a few great reasons to invest in AC installation from our professional HVAC contractors:

Avoid Hassle of Repairs

Let’s face it — dealing with frequent repairs is annoying, and it can be frustrating to have your cooling system go out on a regular basis. It would be a lot more convenient if your AC just worked the way it should. Repairs may be able to fix your unit, but if you are constantly having to obtain repairs, it may be easier to just get a new unit. Air conditioning contractors can come out and replace the old unit. Then, you won’t have to worry so much about breakdowns. You only have one life to live — no one wants to live it dealing with repair headaches.

Energy Efficiency

If you care about the environment, you are probably interested in having the most energy-efficient appliances available. Not only does energy efficiency impact your community, but it also saves you money. Your utility bills will be less expensive if you have an effective air conditioner cooling your house. It won’t have to work so hard to do its job, it consumes less energy, it is often quieter than older units, and it won’t come on as frequently.

Makes it Easier to Sell Your Home

Having new air conditioners can potentially increase the value of your home, as homebuyers are looking for newer appliances when they go to purchase a house. If your home has newer units, it will be easier to sell your home, and you could sell it for a higher price.

Better Indoor Air Quality

New HVAC installation also improves the air you breathe in your home, increases airflow, improves your health, and minimizes allergies. An older unit could have a decade or more of dust and dirt stuck in the ductwork, or the unit could have issues blowing air the way it should, leaving you with stagnant air in certain areas of your home. If air quality and your family’s health are important to you, HVAC installation from professional AC installation companies is probably the way to go.

Repairing Your Air Conditioner vs. Installing a New AC System

If you are having trouble with your air conditioner and are considering a new AC unit, call the experts at Caniglia Heating & Cooling to evaluate your unit to determine the estimated cost of repair and help you decide whether or not a full replacement is the best choice for you and your home. One way of prolonging the life of your unit is to invest in yearly preventative maintenance.
