A new heating and cooling system is a significant investment, but one that can pay dividends in reduced energy use and improved home comfort. If you’ve had your system for a while, you probably have an idea in the back of your mind that replacing it is a good idea. But how do you know for sure when the right time is?
A/C Repair & Installation
When should you replace your heating and cooling system?
It may be time if:
- Your heat pump or air conditioner is more than 10 years old.
- Your furnace or boiler is more than 15 years old.
- Your equipment needs frequent repairs and your energy bills are going up. Your cooling and heating equipment may have become less efficient.
- Some of your rooms are too hot or cold. Improper equipment operation, duct problems or inadequate insulation could be the cause.
- Your home has humidity problems. Poor equipment operation, inadequate equipment, and leaky ductwork can cause the air to be too dry in the winter or too humid in the summer.
- Your home has excessive dust. Leaky ducts can pull particles and air in from attics, crawlspaces and basements and distribute them through the house. Having your ducts sealed may be a solution.
- Your cooling system is noisy. You could have an undersized duct system or a problem with the indoor coil of your cooling equipment.
