When is it time to replace Your Air Conditioning Unit
or Furnace?

This is a question many home owners ask themselves. No one wants to spend money if it is not necessary, but you need to look at the savings that are available by having a high efficiency air conditioning unit and or furnace.
Below are indicators to look at to help you decide when it’s time to consider replacing heating and cooling equipment, or improving the performance of your overall system.
Your heat pump or air conditioner is more than 10 years old.
Consider replacing it with a unit that has earned the ENERGY STAR label. Installed correctly, these high-efficiency units can save up to 20% on heating and cooling costs.
Your furnace or boiler is more than 15 years old.
Consider replacing with an ENERGY STAR qualified furnace, which is 25% more efficient than a conventional furnace. If you have a boiler, consider replacing with an ENERGY STAR qualified boiler that is 15% more efficient than a new, standard model.
Your equipment needs frequent repairs and your energy bills are going up.
Your cooling or heating equipment may have become less efficient.
Some rooms in your home are too hot or too cold.
Improper equipment operation, duct problems or inadequate insulation could be the cause.
No one is home for long periods of the day and you do not have a programmable thermostat.
Install a programmable thermostat or have a good contractor install one and instruct you on its use — to start saving energy and money while they're away or sleeping.
Your home has a humidity problem.
Poor equipment operation, inadequate equipment, improperly sized and leaky ductwork can cause the air to be too dry in the winter or too humid in the summer.
Your home has excessive dust. Leaky ducts can pull particles and air from attics, crawl spaces and basements and distribute them throughout your house. Duct Cleaning may be a solution.
Your heating or cooling system is noisy.
You could have an undersized duct system or a problem with the indoor coil of your cooling equipment. Today’s Variable speed blower is the quietest on the market.
