Five Signs It’s Time to Replace Your AC Unit

As a homeowner, it can be tough to know when to replace your air conditioning unit. How do you know when your AC is simply in need of repairs versus an actual replacement? And, how do you know when to call an AC technician? As a homeowner, you need to know and be able to recognize the most common AC-related problems, in order to decide when a replacement is necessary. Here are the top five signs:

  • Your AC is too old. At a certain age, your air conditioning unit will simply stop functioning the way it’s supposed to. This usually happens when your AC is over 10 years old. If you maintain your AC, you can expect it to last between 10 and 15 years – but that’s it.
  • Your AC is always in need of repairs. If you’re constantly on the phone with your HVAC technician, it’s probably time to call it quits on your current AC model.
  • Your AC is simply not functioning. Is your AC refusing to work properly, no matter what you try? Time for a replacement!
  • Your AC is inefficient. Does your AC have a low SEER rating? If so, you probably need to get a more efficient AC type.
  • Your AC is costing you a fortune. If your air conditioner is costing you buckets of money in repairs, get a new one!
