Six Signs You Need a New Air Conditioner

Even the most well-maintained air conditioning systems in our humid climate have a limited lifespan. Typically, you can expect a good AC unit to last between 10 and 20 years, though this can be shorter with heavy use and less frequent maintenance. Keep an eye out for these signs that it might be time for an AC replacement:

• Poor performance: Is your AC struggling to keep your home cool, leaving you feeling the humidity indoors?
• Insufficient airflow: Are some rooms consistently warmer or cooler than others, indicating a problem with air circulation?
• Frequent cycling: Does your AC unit turn on and off constantly, leading to inconsistent temperatures and higher energy bills?
• Structural issues: Are you noticing physical damage, strange noises, or unusual smells coming from your unit?
• Constant repairs: Are you frequently calling for AC service, with one issue after another arising?
• Higher energy bills: Have you seen a sudden or gradual increase in your electricity costs without a clear explanation?

If you're experiencing any of these issues in your home, don't sweat it! Contact us for a thorough inspection and expert advice.
