Signs You Need AC Replacement
With regular maintenance and annual tune-ups, central air conditioning systems typically last for about 20 years. After this amount of time, major components of the system are likely to fail. You may also notice that the air conditioner isn't doing a good job providing relief from the sizzling summer temperatures and humidity. Some reasons to consider an AC replacement include:
Frequent breakdowns -
Increasing electric bills -
Doesn't keep your home cool -
Poor humidity control -
Needs an expensive repair -
Near its life expectancy
Benefits of an AC Installation
New air conditioning systems offer energy-efficient features, such as variable-speed motors. These motors operate at the lowest necessary speed for longer periods of time. By doing this, they use less energy and deliver more cool air. The longer cycles improve temperature and humidity control. Another feature of new cooling systems is Wi-Fi compatibility. With an app on your phone, you can adjust the AC’s temperature. They’re also compatible with smart thermostats, which could lower your home’s energy use by up to 15% through automatic temperature adjustments.

At Home HVAC Maintenance Tips
Finally, we would like to leave you with a few things that you can do to save money and keep your unit running properly.
Clean or Change Your Filter Monthly
Excessive dust or dirt in a filter can block airflow, which forces a unit to work harder to maintain your preferred temperature.
Keep Outdoor Unit Clean
The outdoor unit should be clear of debris, leaves and shrubbery. The unit needs a free flow of air over the coil. Keep the coil clean with periodic wash-downs and avoid anything that restricts airflow.
Let The Thermostat Do Its Job
Your system will perform more efficiently when you let the thermostat control it. Continually adjusting the temperature can be very inefficient. Set the thermostat at a comfortable level and leave it there.
