What You Need To Know Before An AC Replacement (Part 2)
In the previous post, we discussed several questions homeowners should ask before replacing their current air conditioner.
We want you to be well-informed as you make this decision; therefore, below are several more important considerations as you continue your research on an AC Replacement.
Study AC Systems Before An AC Replacement
There are several types of AC systems from which to choose.
It is important to think about factors such as your budget, how long you are planning to stay in your home, and the square footage of your home. When you choose us, we will ensure you receive the appropriate AC Replacement for your home.
AC units are getting more efficient each year.
For example, an inverter-driven unit is a great choice for maximum efficiency, with ratings up to 22 SEER. The upfront expense may be higher, but the monthly energy expense is typically lower.
A single stage unit that operates at 100% capacity is the opposite.
The upfront expense is lower, but you typically experience a higher monthly energy expense because it is not as efficient.
A ductless mini split unit is a cost-effective AC Replacement option for room additions, those rooms with hot or cold spots, or a garage.
They are compact, quiet, and provide even cooling.
Consider Warranties Before An AC Replacement
The #1 rule to remember is all warranties – and AC companies – are not the same. Be sure to read the warranty in detail and review your options carefully as you research an AC Replacement.
Look for the manufacturer’s warranty, dealer’s warranty, and ask about the extended warranty. When you work with us, we will ensure you fully understand each plan.
Understand Maintenance Requirements Before An AC Replacement
The best way to extend the life of your equipment is to have it maintained regularly.
Since we operate our AC equipment nearly year-round in SW Florida, we recommend a tune-up on your equipment twice a year. Our annual Maintenance Agreements come with numerous additional perks, making it a wise decision as you implement an AC Replacement.
Plus, having a certified technician inspect your unit regularly means small issues can be caught before they become expensive repairs.
It is important to note a Maintenance Agreement does not cover any parts or labor and does not take the place of your warranty.
