There may come a time when you – as a homeowner or business owner – may need to replace your air conditioning unit. Whether that is because it has reached the end of its life cycle or it is cheaper than paying for expensive repairs, there are many reasons why people need to replace an existing A/C unit. So, when do you know when you need to replace your air conditioner? Listed below are four ways that tell you when your A/C unit needs to be replaced. Morrison Plumbing offers air conditioning installation and replacement services for the Metro East, Illinois area. If your air conditioner needs to be replaced, call our experts at (618) 408-1446 for dependable A/C replacement services.
Your A/C Unit is Over 10 Years Old
Like most appliances, your AC unit has a limited life cycle. Most well-maintained air conditioners will last anywhere from 10-12 years. Over time you will start to notice your AC unit is not working as nice as it once did and that it requires repairs more frequently. If you are noticing that you require more and more repair services for your air conditioner, it is probably more cost-effective to replace your unit with a new one. If you know your AC unit is over 10 years old, contact the team at Morrison Plumbing and a professional expert will walk you through the steps of getting a new air conditioner installed to replace your older unit.
You’re Facing Expensive Repairs
With a unit that is requiring expensive repairs, it is best to consider the cost of a replacement and compare the two prices to see if a repair is worth the time and money. Sometimes choosing to replace your AC unit can save you time and money in the long run. At Morrison Plumbing, we can help you find the best solution for your situation. As experienced professionals, our team can help you find a new air conditioning unit that won’t leave you stressed about needing expensive repairs all of the time. Call our office today and one of our team members can answer any questions you have and assist you in finding the best option.
Your Air Conditioning Uses R-22 Freon
Does your A/C unit use R-22 Freon? This popular refrigerant was phased out by the federal government at the beginning of 2020 and although it can still be added to your air conditioner system, it is very costly. Add that onto expensive repairs and you’re spending more money than needed. By choosing to replace your A/C unit from one that uses R-22 Freon to a current unit that uses R410A refrigerant you are saving your wallet from expensive maintenance and repair services. If you are wanting to choose an eco-friendlier option, our team at Morrison Plumbing can assist you in finding the best unit for your home. Call Morrison Plumbing for your air conditioning replacement needs.
You’re Noticing It Is Harder to Keep Your Home Cool
Are you noticing that your home is not staying as cool as it once did? Is it hard to keep your home or business cool during the hotter months? If that is the case for you, then your A/C unit needs to be replaced. As our air conditioner units age, they begin to not have the power to cool your home like they once did. These signs can also mean that you may not have the correct sized A/C unit for your home. Regardless we encourage you to contact our team at Morrison Plumbing if you are noticing it is hard to keep your home cool so that we can guide you in the right direction. Our team will assess your current air conditioning unit and help find the best replacement unit that will work perfectly in your home or office.
