We’ve provided air conditioning solutions for homeowners since 1993, so when you contact us, you can rest assured that your home is in the hands of experts.

When to Replace Your AC Unit

Most central air conditioners last 10-20 years, but the following signs can tell you when replacing your unit is the better option:

  • Frequent system breakdowns
  • System constantly cycles on and off
  • A sudden spike in energy bills
  • Uneven temperatures across rooms
  • Excess indoor humidity

Our team can inspect your existing system, explain your options and help you decide whether repair or replacement makes the most sense for your home.

Important Note

If your AC unit still uses a refrigerant known as Freon, you must replace it even if it’s still in good condition. The reason is that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is phasing out ozone-depleting substances, such as Freon, in ACs and other equipment. Your AC will still work as usual. However, if it needs a Freon refill in the future, there won’t be any available. At that time, you will have to replace your air conditioner with a modern unit that uses a different refrigerant.

AC Replacement FAQs

The length of time required for an AC replacement can vary depending on a number of issues, including the size and complexity of the system, the type of installation, and any unforeseen problems that occur during the installation process.

The removal of the existing unit, which can take several hours, is the first step in an AC replacement. The installation of the new unit follows, which could take several more hours. Any required ductwork alterations, electrical work, or other system upgrades could take more time.

The timing of the installation and the equipment’s availability can both affect how long it takes to replace an AC. To obtain an accurate estimate, it is best to speak with a qualified HVAC technician.

The size is typically measured in tons or BTUs (British Thermal Units) per hour. A common rule of thumb is 20 BTUs per square foot of living space. However, considerations like climate, ceiling height, insulation, number of windows, and the home’s orientation also play significant roles. It’s best to have a professional HVAC technician conduct a load calculation using the Manual J method to ensure the unit’s size matches your home’s specific cooling requirements for optimal efficiency and comfort.

Several factors affect the cost of AC replacement. The size of your home and the capacity of the AC unit required are primary considerations. Larger homes need bigger systems, which increases costs. The type of air conditioner, such as a central unit or ductless system, also impacts the price. Additionally, upgrading to a more energy-efficient model or adding features like smart thermostats can raise the cost. Lastly, labor fees and any necessary updates to existing ductwork or electrical systems play a role in the final cost.
