How Do I Know if I Need a New Air Conditioner?
The weather is heating up and Abilene Air-Tech Inc knows you want to make sure you stay cool all summer long. So, if your air conditioner isn’t running properly, how do you know whether to make the investment toward repairs or purchasing a new system?
Here are some questions you should think about when deciding if you need a new air conditioner:
- How old is my system?
If your system is 10 to 15 years old, you may prefer to think about buying a replacement air conditioner. The technology and efficiencies in HVAC systems have continued to progress in recent years and there a lot of added features that benefit your home and wallet. - How often are the breakdowns occurring?
If your repairs have been a rare occasion, it may not make sense to take the jump to a new system. However, if your system is requiring repairs on a more frequent basis, you are putting a lot of cash into fixing a system that may not be operating properly. - Have you noticed an increase in your energy usage?
It’s a good idea to keep an eye on your monthly energy usage. And since temperatures do vary throughout the year, it’s a good idea to do yearly comparisons to get a more specific picture of how your energy usage has changed. If your system is laboring harder to achieve the same results, it will result in higher energy use. - Do you notice a change in your home comfort?
If your air conditioning system isn’t keeping you cool and comfortable, that’s a sign that something isn’t right. Our experts can help you decide if it needs repair or if you should consider a new system. We can also help you evaluate whether you have the most fitting system for your house and if it has the ability to adequately cool your house.
