When to Replace or Repair Your AC?

 While deciding whether to replace or repair an AC unit, there are significant factors to consider. They include the new AC unit's age, efficiency, and performance and the cost of any needed repair. Sometimes these factors are difficult to understand and make you contact an AC company to decide if your AC needs repair or replacement. 

Considering an appropriate action plan if your AC breaks down on the hottest day or when you need it the most, regular servicing or a simple repair is enough to keep an older unit running for more good years.

Repair or Replace Your AC Unit? Consider 3 Factors

1. Age of the Unit

A life expectancy of a typical air conditioning unit is 12-15 years. Your unit can give better performance for longer if it is properly maintained. Purchasing a new AC can be better if it is over ten years and the warranty has expired.

2. Repair Cost

It's simple. If repair costs are higher than replacement, it makes financial sense to buy a new one.

3. Level of Problem

Sometimes, AC runs for long years. If your AC has a minor problem and can be resolved by professionals, repair it.

So, helping you decide whether to repair or replace is one of the excellent benefits of an AC company.
