AC Repair vs Replacement
The age-old question arises: repair or replace? The choice depends on several factors, mainly revolving around cost-effectiveness and performance relative to your AC unit’s lifespan:
0-8 Years: If your unit is still relatively young with plenty of service life ahead, opting for repairs is often the more economical choice.
9-14 Years: During this phase, there’s noticeable wear and tear. Depending on the unit’s maintenance history, repair might still make sense. However, if your decade-old unit has seen limited maintenance and constant use, investing in a new one could prove more cost-effective in the long run.
15+ years: Your unit has gracefully weathered the North Tustin climate’s ups and downs (admittedly, there aren’t many downs). Now is the time to consider replacement for long-term cost savings. Older parts become scarce, the inefficiency of your aging unit affects your bills, and advances in technology have rendered newer components more effective. It’s a well-timed move for a more efficient and cost-effective cooling solution.

This issue can happen for multiple reasons such as dirty coils, refrigerant leaks, or natural wear and tear.
– Filter – A dirty filter is definitely a frequent issue that arises within most AC units. This can lead to the filter getting clogged, and is relatively easy change on your time. However, if the task can seem to daunting to you, reach out to a technician to get assistance.
Simple Steps for AC Maintenance
While certain aspects of HVAC maintenance require professional attention, there are several routine tasks you can perform to extend your air conditioner’s lifespan. Here are some practical tips for you:
