Is It Time to Get A New Air Conditioner? Bartlett Heating and Air Has the Answer!

It was a long winter but spring is here! Soon enough we will start to use our air conditioners. How longs have you had your AC? Could it be time for a new one? Here are some general guidelines to tell if you are overdue for a new air conditioner. If your AC isn’t cooling your home as well as it used to even if the refrigerant levels are correct then it is times for a new AC. If your unit is more than 10 years old then it is a good idea to replace it with a new one. They are typically made to last around 10 years so yours is reaching its time. The older AC is way less energy efficient and will likely be using more energy than it should to cool your home. Getting a new AC that is energy efficient will save you money on your energy bills. Does your AC need repair once or twice a year? If so then maybe you should look into replacing the unit instead. All those repairs add up to money you could have used towards replacing the system. If you have your AC looked at and the technician tells you that the repair is half or more the cost of a new system then you definitely need to replace the system. I know getting a new system is initially more expensive but you do save money in the long run. The new systems are more efficient than the old ones so you save on your energy bills. You also will save money not repairing the AC all the time. If anything major does happen to your AC it will be covered under the warranty so that is another perk of having a new AC. You will also have piece of mind that the AC will work for you when you need it the most and that is priceless.
