Common Signs of an AC Problem
Some of the more common signs indicating the need for AC repair services include:
- Your air conditioning unit has stopped running.
- The system is running, but warm air, not cool air, is coming out of the vents.
- You discover water leaking out of the system.
- Your AC is not making its usual smooth, humming sound, but instead, it’s making strange grinding, banging, or whistling sounds, potentially a sign of a serious problem.
- Your system is either running continuously or frequently cycling on and off.
- You detect a strange smell, like a burning odor, coming from your system.
- The humidity level in your Portsmouth home has become uncomfortable.

The Great Question – Air Conditioning Repair or Replacement?
With regular maintenance, an AC system should last a good 10 to 15 years, but as we’ve said, the years of service will take their toll. That means every homeowner will eventually face this question: Do I continue to repair my old system or do I replace it?
In answering this question, there are several things to consider.
- Age: As we said, a well-maintained and serviced system should last 10 to 15 years, but if your system is near the upper end of that range, replacement may well be the better option.
- Frequent repairs: These can be a sign that your system is nearing the end of its useful life, and the cost of multiple repairs can quickly mount and potentially exceed the cost of a new system.
- System efficiency: Older units tend to be less energy-efficient, leading to higher utility bills. Newer models come with improved technology that can significantly reduce energy consumption and provide better cooling performance while also promoting a greener environment.
- SEER Rating: When considering replacement, be aware of a systems’s SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating when evaluating a new unit. A higher SEER rating means better energy efficiency and lower utility costs.
With all these consideration in mind, if replacement rather than continued repairs seems the better option, MSCO is ready to help. Our cooling experts will work with you to find a new TRANE or Mitsubishi unit that meets your needs without breaking the family budget. And through our partnership with Wells Fargo, credit options are available if you need them.
