Old Unit ?
Heating and Air Conditioning systems wear out. It is only a matter of time. Your system may continue to try to do its best, but between old age, inefficient heating and cooling and cost of maintenance, sometimes it is best to retire your old unit and begin again with a new one.

Warning Signs
It is important to recognize warning signs that your current air conditioner might be on its last legs when the time to choose a new AC unit rapidly approaches. Warning signs on how you can tell if your air conditioner needs to be replaced in the near future include:
Inconsistency:
Older models may cause less than consistent cooling and can increase your energy bill. Replacing the old AC system will nearly always lead to better energy efficiency and a reduced operating cost.
Age
Air conditioning units over 10 years of age will have less efficiency than modern, efficient models. The savings alone from purchasing a more efficient unit may justify the replacement of the old AC unit.
Humidity:
Excessive humidity can indicate a reduced cooling capacity or even a broken part.
Noisiness:
This can be a sign that your system needs immediate service. Your motor may be slowing down, and the system is unable to meet your needs.
Increasing Costs:
An increase in your energy bills will signal a drop in efficiency from your AC unit, and that it could be about to fail.
Thermostat
Not Responding
Thermostats can go bad too. We offer thermostat replacement on all models.
We know how to install
Energy efficiency:
The more efficient the unit, the higher the upfront price. However, they will save you money in the long run.
System size:
Larger units are typically more expensive than smaller ones. During consultation we will assess and give you advice on what your home needs.
Comfort features:
Air conditioner unites can come with various comfort features—like variable speed blowers—that may provide more even cooling throughout your home.
Manufacturer warranty length:
A longer warranty costs more but gives you more peace of mind and protection.
