1. When should I replace my existing AC unit? – While this is a common question, the answer may differ depending on your home and situation. A simple answer is once your AC is 10 years old, it may not be working optimally, and it may be time to replace it. However, a technician would need to inspect your existing air conditioner to be able to determine what condition it is in and if it needs to be replaced.
2. How often does my AC need maintenance? – Before turning your AC on for the summer, it is important that you give it a bit of maintenance. Clean the filters, examine for damage, and call a professional for a tune-up. Regular maintenance will help prolong the life expectancy of your air conditioner and make it run more efficiently.
3. How do I know my AC needs a professional repair? – Some of the telltale signs you need a residential air conditioning repair are if your AC is making strange noises, your house isn’t cooling properly or evenly, the airflow is limited, or your AC is leaking. If you notice any of these signs, call a professional right away.
