Signs That It Is Time To Replace Your Air Conditioner

Signs That It Is Time To Replace Your Air Conditioner

In the hot Arizona heat, there is no other piece of equipment or home appliance that is more important than your air conditioner. HVAC systems aren’t designed to live forever and your air conditioner has a limited life span. As it approaches the end of its useful life, it is often better to replace it before experiencing costly repairs or a total breakdown on the weekend or hot day.

 

Instead of reacting to an inconvenient failure, it is important to recognize the signs of when to replace your air conditioner so you can plan ahead. While it is recommended that a professional inspect and properly diagnose your A/C unit, below are some of the signs to watch for so you can call us to help.

 

 

Air Conditioner Age

While many people expect that there will be some major signs before a breakdown, sometimes equipment just wears out. The age of an air conditioner is a significant factor as to when you should get a new one installed. The manufacturer of the unit has an estimated service life which is covered by the warranty. The lifespan will vary by the brand and type of system, but generally HVAC systems that are regularly maintained will last about 10 to 15 years. If your A/C unit is close to 20 years old then you should definitely consider getting a new one!

 

 

Noisy Air Conditioner

A/C manufacturers and engineers spend large amounts of time designing systems to be a quiet as possible. If you begin to hear loud noises coming from HVAC system something is wrong. While a simple repair fix the issue, but regular and sustained clanging means the system is getting worn out and needs to be replaced.

 

 

High Energy Bills

With summer temperatures skyrocketing, it is expected to see higher utility bills. However if your energy costs seem to be higher than usual each month then you might have an air conditioner that is failing. An air conditioner that gets regular maintenance is expected to keep a 95 percent energy efficiency rating throughout its life. As the unit ages, that rating drops and energy bills rise. If you suspect this might be occurring, review your utility bills to compare monthly costs.

 

 

Expensive Repair Costs

It is expected that you will have to have your air conditioner repaired at some point during its life. However, like with any piece of equipment when the repairs become increasingly more expensive it is time to evaluate a replacement. When issues occur on a more regular basis and cost more to fix, it is time to get a new one. The rule of thumb is that if a repair is expected to cost half or more of what your system is worth, then it makes more sense to install a new A/C.

 

If you are experiencing any of these signs, call us today. We will inspect your air conditioner to see if it requires maintenance, repairs or replacement.

The Value of Air Quality and Duct Cleaning

If you want to keep your living space fresh, healthy and pleasant for everyone, then you need to pay attention to the air in your home. The EPA reported that the air inside your home may be five times more polluted than the air outside. Due to this fact, poor indoor air quality is ranked as one of the top five environmental risks. If you have family members with allergies, asthma or are at risk for illnesses 

 

Change Your Air Filters

One of the easiest things to do to improve the quality of the air in your home is to regularly change your air filters. Everyone gets busy in life, but mark your calendar and be sure to change your air filter when it is due. Also consider the type of air filter you are using and buy one with a higher MERV rating if you feel you need more protection from contaminants.

 

Air Duct Cleaning

After changing your filters, getting your air ducts cleaned is an important step in attaining better quality air indoors. Regular air duct cleaning does a lot for you and for your overall feeling of cleanliness. If you want to enhance the air quality inside of your residence, then you need to find a professional with the experience and training to give you a thorough and in-depth cleaning.

Is It Time To Get An Air Duct Cleaning?

Is It Time To Get An Air Duct Cleaning?

If you or your family are currently experiencing allergies, asthma or are getting sick more often then it is time to clean your air ducts. Now with the threat of COVID-19 and the smoke from fires in surrounding states, it is more important than ever to have them cleaned. The air ducts in your HVAC system need to have an annual cleaning to improve your home’s air conditions, provide a cleaner living environment, reduce the number of allergens and get better system performance.

 

The Benefits of Air Duct Cleaning

Do you remember the last time you had your air ducts cleaned? If you can not remember or it has been more than a year, then it’s time to have them skillfully cleaned. Listed below are some of the significant benefits of having clean duct work in your home.

 

A Healthier and Cleaner Home

Keeping dust and dirt out of your home can be hard to manage. While you can clean the surfaces within your home often, cleaning your duct work may not often occur to you. When it does, air duct cleaning requires special machines, tools and training that even a DIYer would likely not have. This is why hiring a duct cleaning company to do a professional job for you is important. With just one air duct cleaning, years of dust build up can be removed making you and your family breathe easier than ever!

 

Decrease Allergens

Throughout the years, the HVAC duct work in your home can accumulate all kinds of debris and irritants. From dust to pet dander to plant pollens, these irritants can build over time and become a problem in your home. For those who are at risk or have existing health conditions, having these allergens circulating throughout your home can be a significant issue. By having an air duct cleaning done, those allergens will be totally removed providing you excellent indoor air quality. You will feel better knowing that the air you and your family breathe is cleaner and free from the things that can make you suffer.

 

Air Duct Cleaning Improves HVAC Performance

There are a number of reasons that your air ducts need to be cleaned, however there is one reason that you might not have considered. Without regular maintenance, air ducts can become obstructed with dust and other particles. This results in restricted air movement inside your home which makes your heating, ventilation and air conditioning system work that much harder. The harder it has to work, the more you will spend on your utility bills. Along with the monthly increase in electrical costs, the lifespan of your HVAC system will be lessened too. To make sure that you get the most out of your home’s air conditioning and heating system, get your air ducts cleaned by a professional company.

 

While regular duct cleaning is important, if you have smokers, pets or have recently completed a home renovation project, then an air duct cleaning should be done right away.
