equipment? If your system is aging, or it has required recurring, costly repairs, it may not pay to invest more repair money into a failing system.
Often, homeowners require expert assistance to determine when’s the best time to replace HVAC equipment, as a number of related factors may indicate that a replacement is the best option.
How do you know if it’s time to repair or replace HVAC equipment? Here are some clues to watch for:
- Age – The age of your air conditioner or heat pump may give you some idea of how much longer it will last. Manufacturers and HVAC experts assign a useful service life of about 15 years for most HVAC equipment – somewhat shorter on original “construction grade” equipment and installations. You can lengthen that time frame with regular maintenance. But age alone is generally not a good indication of whether to repair or replace HVAC equipment. It’s best to take age into account along with other factors.
- Repairs – If you’ve already had to repair your system, it’s probably time to consider a replacement. Ideally, you should begin investigating replacement systems before the next repair is required. That way, you’ll have the luxury of time on your side to choose the best system.
- Energy costs – When energy bills unexpectedly start to rise, that’s often a signal that your existing HVAC equipment is no longer performing to standards or the associated duct-work has become compromised. By choosing a replacement system with a higher efficiency rating than your existing one, and by ensuring quality installation practices, you’ll lower energy costs — and increase energy savings….and don’t forget the ducts!
- Comfort – Air conditioners or heat pumps that are failing also do a poor job at managing comfort. Humidity control in particular becomes problematic, as problems with the system’s cycles often lead to higher indoor humidity levels.
