Signs Your Air Conditioner Needs Replacement (& How To Choose a New System)

Ah, the sweet hum of a functioning air conditioner on a scorching day — what a relief! But what happens when your AC starts acting up? Your AC shouldn’t feel like it’s running a marathon to keep your home comfortable. If your system is huffing and puffing, it might be time to give it a well-deserved retirement. Let’s explore the telltale signs that it’s time to say goodbye to your old air conditioner and welcome a shiny new system into your life.

Signs Your AC Needs Replacement

Keep an eye out for the below signs that your AC is trying to tell you. It might be time for a replacement with BVSM Heating & Air Conditioning.

• Inconsistent Cooling: If some rooms feel like the Arctic while others mimic the Sahara, your AC might be struggling to distribute cool air evenly. Time for an upgrade!
• Strange Noises: From clanks to squeals, if your AC sounds like a haunted house, it’s best to swap it out before it becomes a ghost itself.
• Sky-High Energy Bills: Your AC shouldn’t break the bank to keep you comfy. If your bills are higher than the summer temperatures, a new, energy-efficient system could save you in the long run.
• Age of Your System: Remember to consider the years your current AC system has faithfully served you. Most air conditioners last around 10 to 15 years, so if yours is approaching or surpassing this range, it might be time to start thinking about a replacement to avoid potential breakdowns and inefficiencies.

Tips for Choosing a New Air Conditioner

Programmable Thermostats: Opt for a programmable thermostat. These innovative features allow you to customize your cooling schedule throughout the day for optimal comfort and energy savings.

Size Matters: It’s important to determine the right size AC unit for your home. Our specialists will select a system that fits perfectly, delivering efficient cooling without wasted energy.
