Most ACs units are built to last fifteen to twenty years. If you find yourself facing severe AC issues at this stage, it may be more cost-effective to replace than spend money repairing an old unit that will continue to break down.

HVAC experts recommend you replace your AC system entirely when replacing your AC unit. While this is not required, combining new and old equipment will hinder your AC system efficiency. Your AC unit is only as strong as its weakest part.

Yes, you should seriously consider replacing your AC unit if it’s 20+ years old. Not only will many parts be nearing their expected lifespan, but these parts are much less advanced than today’s parts. Most units of this age are costing you more monthly then a newer ac unit would.

The parts replaced may include the inside air handler, exterior compressor, new refrigerant supply tubes, thermostat, and condensation drain lines.

AC replacement may also involve the removal of the old unit, preparing the AC unit area, and testing the new unit.

It takes between four to eight hours to replace an AC unit.
