Signs That You Need A New Air Conditioner
Air conditioners last a long time – but not forever. The time will come where every homeowner will have to install a new AC in their home. Fortunately, it isn’t hard to tell when your air conditioner is on its last legs. In fact, there are some crystal-clear signs that it is time to replace your unit. They include:
- Age: The most straightforward way to tell whether you should replace your air conditioner is its age. AC units typically last anywhere from 10 to 15 years, depending on how often homeowners serviced them and whether they performed at-home maintenance.
- Weak or No Airflow: Your air conditioner should give you a steady blast of cooled air to your thermostat’s specifications. If your unit is not producing cold air or if the AC is producing weak but cold air, then there is an issue with the compressor or blocked vents.
- Moisture or Leaks: Condensation is normal around an air conditioner, but excessive leakage is not. And make no mistake, it can be a severe problem. If there is a large refrigerant leak, you will want to immediately call First Call Heating & Cooling.
- Unusual Sounds: Sound when your air conditioner cycles on is normal. Clanking, banging, whirring, or squealing sounds are not. Chances are, there is a loose component somewhere in the air conditioner.
The Benefits of Choosing To Replace Your Air Conditioner
There are numerous benefits to purchasing a new air conditioner for your home. But perhaps the most important is efficiency. The technology that drives modern air conditioners continues to evolve, and they continue to grow more efficient. And that means money saved. Your older unit struggles to keep up with the demands you place on it, and those struggles force it to blow harder and run more frantically. The result is an inefficient and costly air conditioner. Replacing it for a new one is an excellent way to save money over the long haul.
