If your HVAC system is over 15 years old, requires frequent repairs, or has significantly decreased efficiency, replacing it may be the best option. Repairs can become costly, especially if major components like the compressor or heat exchanger fail. A new system with high energy efficiency ratings can lower utility bills and improve comfort.
If repair costs exceed 50% of the cost of a new unit, replacement is often the smarter financial decision. Consulting with an HVAC professional can help determine the best course of action based on your system’s condition and long-term costs.
