In most cases, you can fix AC issues with a repair. In other situations, you must replace your air conditioner to ensure indoor comfort, avoid frequent fixes, and save money on your energy bills.

If you notice any of these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/tips-to-fix-common-ac-problems\/\">AC problems<\/a>, it is likely time to get a new air conditioner.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_AC_Bills_are_Constantly_Rising\"><\/span>Your AC Bills are Constantly Rising<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While energy bills are higher during the summers and winters and due to the fluctuating costs of electricity and natural gas, you should have a good estimate of your energy costs based on past costs. If your energy bills are consistently higher than what you expect, it could be that your AC&#8217;s efficiency has declined with age. In this case, you&#8217;re better off with a new unit that will run more efficiently and help you save on energy costs.<\/p>\n<p>Galmiche &amp; Sons supplies <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/upgrading-to-high-efficiency-ac-units\/\">high efficiency AC units<\/a> that can help you save energy and improve comfort. Choose from Lennox and Goodman HVAC systems ranging from 13 SEER to 21 SEER, a rating that is used to express what amount of energy the device consumes during the season. A higher SEER rating means higher energy efficiency.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Replace_Your_Air_Conditioner_When_It_is_No_Longer_Performing_as_Expected\"><\/span>Replace Your Air Conditioner When It is No Longer Performing as Expected<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Your HVAC unit may need replacing soon if its performance has declined markedly. If there is less cold air being produced, it could point to a failing compressor or another major component. Have our technicians inspect your AC to determine whether the problem is significant and how best it can be resolved.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/when-should-you-replace-your-air-conditioner-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Signs Your Air Conditioner Needs Replacement\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-15838\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/when-should-you-replace-your-air-conditioner-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/when-should-you-replace-your-air-conditioner-2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Cost_of_Repairs_Nears_the_Cost_of_Replacement\"><\/span>The Cost of Repairs Nears the Cost of Replacement<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Repairing an AC is not cheap. If you need to repair your AC often or find yourself faced with a particularly expensive repair, you may save more by replacing your current unit. AC repair costs can add up and near or exceed the cost of a new AC unit. Moreover, repairing or finding replacement parts for aging ACs can be challenging.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_AC_is_Older_Than_15_Years\"><\/span>Your AC is Older Than 15 Years<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Most air conditioners last for 15-20 years. If your AC is past the 15-year mark, it&#8217;s best to start planning an upgrade. According to the Department of Energy, even if your AC is only 10 years old, you may save 10-40% of your cooling energy costs by replacing it with a newer, more efficient model.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Replace_Your_Air_Conditioner_If_It_Poses_Safety_Risks\"><\/span>Replace Your Air Conditioner If It Poses Safety Risks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>An overheated AC motor or a significant problem with your AC that can pose a fire hazard must be addressed promptly.
