To answer that question, consider the age of your central air conditioner. Think about how much longer you expect to live in your current home. Last, consider how much your current system is costing you in the long run.
If your heating and cooling system is over ten years old, we think it’s a better investment to replace it rather than repairing it.
Even when it is working properly, a new HVAC unit is almost guaranteed to have a higher, more energy efficient SEER rating than your old HVAC unit. Higher efficiency means you will save money on your energy bills every month. Moreover, you’ll be getting a new, extended warranty to cover future repairs.
With financing, you can easily break down the initial HVAC installation costs and HVAC replacement costs. The improved indoor air quality which comes with a new air conditioner installation can even lower medical expenses, especially here in the South where mold spores, pollen, and other allergens are prevalent.
If you are planning on selling your home in the next few years, it might be more prudent to repair your heat pump or natural gas furnace.
