When is Air Conditioner Replacement Necessary?

We understand that buying a new air conditioner is not something you want to rush if there's a more economical option. However, there are instances when replacing an air conditioner is a much better idea than repairing it:

  • If the unit is approaching the end of its lifespan (typically 10-15 years), investing in repairs may only provide a temporary solution. 
  • If the repair costs are excessively high, it may be more cost-effective to replace the unit, especially if the repairs are frequent or if major components require replacement. 
  • If the air conditioner has low energy efficiency, upgrading to a newer model can result in long-term energy savings. 
  • If the unit consistently fails to cool the space effectively or if it requires constant repairs, a replacement may offer improved performance and reliability. 

Consulting with our Lake Forest AC installers can help determine the most suitable and cost-effective course of action based on the specific circumstances of the air conditioner.

Choosing the Right Air Conditioner for Your Home

Selecting the right air conditioner for your home is crucial for optimal comfort and energy efficiency. Our Lake Forest AC installation team can help you make the right choice by taking into account the following factors:

  • Cooling Capacity: We'll help you determine the appropriate cooling capacity (measured in BTUs) required for your space. The size of the room, insulation, and other factors impact this calculation. An undersized unit will struggle to cool effectively, while an oversized one may cycle on and off frequently, wasting energy.
  • Energy Efficiency: You'll want to consider air conditioners with high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) ratings. Higher SEER ratings indicate greater energy efficiency, resulting in lower operating costs and reduced environmental impact.
  • Noise Levels: Don't fail to consider the noise levels of the air conditioner, particularly if you plan to install it in a bedroom or living area. Look for models with low noise ratings to ensure a quieter operation.
  • Features: Determine the features you desire, such as programmable thermostats, remote control, multiple fan speeds, and sleep modes. These features can enhance convenience and comfort.
  • Maintenance Requirements: Consider the maintenance requirements of the unit. You will probably want a model with easy-to-clean filters and accessible components to facilitate regular maintenance.
  • Budget: Set a budget for your air conditioner purchase, including installation costs. Compare prices, warranties, and energy efficiency to find the best value within your budget.

With so many brands, makes, and models on the market, it can be difficult to know what kind of air conditioner to purchase. But with John Stevenson Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. on your side, you can trust that we'll provide you with honest guidance. Our Lake Forest AC installers will ensure that whatever air conditioner you choose, it will meet your specific needs, provide efficient cooling, and enhance your indoor comfort.

  • Why Isn't My Home Getting Warm Enough?
    There are a few reasons why your furnace may not be warming your home efficiently or evenly. One of the most common reasons is a leak in the ducting. If there is a small hole or the ducting is improperly installed, it could leak out warm air and cause the air pressure to drop and the system then provides inadequate heating. Additionally, dirty filters will also cause a restriction in airflow making the system work harder. This can lead to a broken system, which is why regularly changing and/or cleaning your air filters is so important.
