Should I Repair or Replace My Air Conditioner?
When deciding whether to repair or replace your air conditioning system, several important factors should be considered. First, assess the age of your current unit. As we have said, air conditioning systems typically last between 10 to 15 years. If your unit is within this age range or older, it may be more cost-effective to replace it with a newer, more energy-efficient model.
A second consideration is frequent breakdowns and repairs. These can be a sign that your system is nearing the end of its useful life. The cost of multiple repairs can quickly add up, potentially exceeding the cost of a new system.
Another crucial factor is the efficiency and performance of your current air conditioning system. Older units tend to be less energy-efficient, leading to higher utility bills. Newer models often come with improved technology that can significantly reduce energy consumption and provide better cooling performance.
For example, consider the SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating when evaluating a new system. A higher SEER rating means better energy efficiency. Ultimately, balancing the costs of repairs, the potential savings on energy bills, and the improved comfort of a new system will help you make an informed decision.
All factors considered, if replacement seems the better option, our cooling experts will help you find a new TRANE or Mitsubishi unit that meets your needs without breaking the family budget. And always remember, through our partnership with Wells Fargo, credit options are available.
