When Should You Repair Your Air Conditioner and When Should You Replace It

Published on July 12, 2016
When Should You Repair Your Air Conditioner and When Should You Replace It 617.jpg

Your A/C system is plugging away through another Edmonton summer and all of sudden the cool air stops blasting. You call an air conditioning professional to come over and evaluate the problem and by the time it’s all said and done you’re going to have to pay a chuck of change for the repair. So at what point should you give up and just change out your current air conditioning equipment?

Age

Clearly as your system ages it’s likely to fail and lose efficiency. A/C systems over nine years old are now much less efficient than the current energy-efficient equipment available today. Additionally, if your AC is more than 15 years old, you are likely to put in more money over time to keep it functioning than if you just purchased a new, energy-efficient air conditioner.

Money

To piggyback on the theme above, ultimately it’s going to begin costing more to invest in new parts and mend issues than it would to just invest in a new A/C. Another issue to note is R-22, the typical refrigerant for old cooling equipment, is being discontinued for the well-being of the environment. If your air conditioning system was produced before 2010, you will probably see a jump in the cost of your refrigerant until you replace your equipment.

Efficiency

Science is constantly developing and with that comes more energy-efficient A/C systems. Systems now tend to cost less to use because they can cool the home more efficiently, lowering your utility bills – and who doesn’t enjoy that?
