Your air conditioning unit works hard throughout the summer to keep your home cool and comfortable. However, if you experience any warning signs, such as strange noises or a lack of cool air, you need to address them right away to avoid an untimely breakdown. Below is a comprehensive guide to determining whether you should schedule repairs or a replacement. 

When to Choose Air Conditioning Repair

If you recently bought your air conditioning unit and this is your first time experiencing any issues, contact a technician for repair work. Problems such as dirty filters or worn compressors can be fixed without having to invest a significant sum into a full system replacement. Other issues that can be repaired easily include refrigerant leaks and faulty thermostats. 

When to Choose Air Conditioning Replacement

If you’re constantly making calls to a technician or your unit is over ten years old, purchasing a new air conditioning unit is the better investment. As your system ages, it will experience more frequent issues and lose efficiency anyway. While a temporary fix can buy you time, a replacement will help save money on both utility bills and service fees. Newer air conditioning systems are more efficient and come with warranties in case you experience any problems within a specific window following installation.
