Do You Need a New AC Unit?

It can be hard to tell whether or not you need a new AC unit, especially if you’re not familiar with cooling systems. Here’s a few signs that it may be the right time for Glenside AC replacement:

• Your AC unit is at least 15 years old: Replacing an AC unit is typically recommended every 15 years. If your AC unit falls within this age range, it may be time for a replacement. We can assess your cooling system to determine whether or not an upgrade is necessary.
• Your AC unit isn’t cooling your home like it used to: This could be a sign that your AC unit is past its prime and not working as efficiently as it used to. Signs of inefficiency include long AC run times, high energy bills, and uneven cooling.
• Your energy bills have gotten more expensive: AC units typically use a lot of energy, so it’s not unusual for your energy bills to go up during the summer months. However, if you notice a significant increase in your AC-related energy costs, it could be time for an AC replacement.
• Your AC unit breaks down all the time: AC units that require frequent repairs are often not worth fixing. It may be time to invest in a new AC unit that will last longer and require fewer repairs. If you’re not sure whether or not your AC needs to be replaced, contact Green HVAC today. We’ll send an AC contractor to your home to take a look.
• Your AC unit uses R-22 refrigerant: US production of R-22 refrigerant was stopped in 2020, due to the substance’s harmful effects on the environment. If your AC unit uses R-22, you’ll need to swap out your system or change your refrigerant.

How to Choose a New Air Conditioner 

There are many different types of AC units, and it can be difficult to know which one is right for your home. Wondering how to choose a new air conditioner? Here are some things to consider.

The size of your home: There is a range of sizes for AC units. It is crucial to select an AC unit that is the appropriate size for your home; otherwise, it will not be effective in cooling your space.

Your budget: AC units range in price, so it’s important to choose one that fits your budget. Green HVAC can offer special financing to help your budget fit the AC unit that’s best for your home.

Your energy needs: Different AC units have different energy needs. If you would like an AC unit that is more energy-efficient, we can help you to understand the different energy ratings and select a unit that best suits your needs.
