Signs That You Need A New Air Conditioner

Most air conditioners last between 15-20 years. But that industry-standard life-expectancy can increase or decrease depending on many factors such as the care of the unit and the climate. The best way to know when your air conditioner is reaching the end of its life is to be on the lookout for some common indications. These signs include:

• Poor Climate Control- As an AC unit ages, the function becomes less efficient, and you begin to notice that your home is not as cool and comfortable as it once was. You might also find that the temperature in your home is no longer remaining constant. Some rooms are cool, while others are warmer.
• Increased Utility Cost- As the efficiency of your air conditioner decreases, sadly, the operating cost will increase. This is because the unit is running more frequently and working harder to try and maintain the temperature that you have set on the thermostat. As your bills get higher, and so does the temperature in your home, it is clearly time to start thinking about a new air conditioner installation.
• Too Many Repairs- If you feel like you have your AC fixed every month or even more often, then it is about time to purchase a replacement. Every unit will require service and repairs from time to time. But when your repair bills come as often as your utility bills, then your air conditioner has reached the end of its life.
