When Do I Need A Replacement?
Before replacing your air conditioning unit, run through this list of questions. Depending on your answers, you’ll know whether or not it’s time for a new system.
-
How often do you have to get repairs on the unit?
-
How Old Is The Air Conditioning Unit?
-
What Kind Of Refrigerant Does Your Unit Use?
If your HVAC company is frequently on your “recently called” list, then it might be time for an upgrade. Additionally, if you’ve spent thousands of dollars on AC repairs, then it is definitely time to purchase a new system.
If it’s past the age of 10, it’s value and efficiency are on the decline so it might be worth it to invest in a replacement.
If your air conditioning unit is still using R22 Freon, then you should start looking for a replacement. This type of refrigerant is being phased out of production and will become increasingly more expensive to purchase.
