Deciding to Repair or Replace Your Central Air Conditioning System

Many homeowners find themselves facing a lesser of two evils scenario. Especially true with older homes, there are times when you must weigh your options of completely replacing your existing central air conditioning system or simply repairing what is already established. When weighing your options you should consider several basic points.

  • The age of your central air conditioning system is one of the most important factors to consider. The average life span of a central air conditioning unit is only twelve to fourteen years. It is possible that a system that has had proper maintenance throughout its lifetime may last well into its late teens. However, as a general rule of thumb if the repair is of moderate cost, it is generally best to opt for a whole new system. If you only have a few years of life in your system, patching it up is only adding to an inevitable expense of replacement down the road.
  • The condition of your current air ducts should also be considered. Depending on the age of your central heat and air conditioning system, it is possible that your ducts can be leaking air. Older homes especially encounter problem with ductwork. If you already have to have duct repair or replacement done, it might save you money to go ahead and replace your air conditioning system at the same time.
  • The amount of your power or heating bills should also be taken into consideration. If your system is older, likely your bills for cooling and heating are high.  Newer models are designed to be energy efficient, while in the older models’ design manufacturers were less concerned. Swapping out an older model central air conditioning unit for a new one could save you as much as half of your current bills.
  • The cost to repair your central air conditioning system should be weighed against the cost to replace it with a new model. It is important to get quotes for both options and weigh the options carefully. If your repair is a small amount and you have had no previous problems with your air conditioner, then the repair is likely the best bet. However, if you have had multiple issues with your current system or the repairs are over $500 it is probably worthwhile to just opt for an entirely new installation.

Ultimately only you can decide if you should replace or repair your current central air conditioning system. It is always best to get quotes from more than one service technician to be sure you are getting an accurate representation of the costs of each. If a technician or contractor offers you prices over the phone, look elsewhere. The only way to know what work really needs to be done is to have your current system inspected by a licensed and well-reputed heating and air conditioning specialist.
