Is It More Cost-Effective to Repair or Replace Your AC?
It is unfortunate, not to mention very uncomfortable and dangerous, when your home’s cooling system fails. Quite often our customers are unsure if their air conditioner is worth repairing. The decision to either replace or repair your AC unit is weighty, so here are some guidelines that may help you decide.
Choose AC repair over AC replacement if:
-
Your unit is not covered under warranty – in this case, you will be responsible for repairs.
- You have a newer unit – your AC unit is under 10 years old. Note that homeowners in coastal areas may need more frequent services due to the corrosive nature of salty sea air.
- Cost of repairs does not exceed the $5,000 rule – If the product of multiplying the cost of repairs by the age of the AC system is less than $5,000, you should repair the unit. If it exceeds $5,000, you should replace.
- Your unit has performed reliably – your unit is still fairly new and has operated consistently and reliably.
- Cost of repair does not exceed the 50% rule – choose repairs if the repair cost is not more than half the value of air conditioning unit.
5 Things to Check Before Calling for AC Repair
Before calling for service if your air conditioner is not working, check to see if:
- The thermostat switch is set to the proper position
- The set-point is below the room temperature
- The furnace is plugged in and the power switch turned on (the air conditioner needs the furnace to circulate the air)
- The air-conditioning disconnect or breaker has been turned on (if you know how to check the fuses, see if any are blown)
- The HVAC filter is clean
