Repair or Replace? What Makes Sense
A lot of people put off AC repair because they’re worried about being sold on a new system. We don’t do that and will only give you the options with numbers for each. But here’s a general guideline to consider before you call:
- AC Repair is ideal when the unit is under 10 years old and the issue is tied to one part. If it’s the first time having a problem with it, then hang on to the unit.
- AC Replacement is worth considering when the unit is older than 10-15 years and has had multiple repairs, or the repair cost is close to half of the price of a new unit altogether.
When you give us a call we’ll show you both options and our reasoning behind them with no pressure to decide either way. We also offer routine maintenance for AC systems to stay on top of small repairs and a Lion’s Club Membership for HVAC, electrical, and plumbing maintenance on one plan for $14.95 a month, with potential yearly savings of up to $2,000.
