Repairing vs. Replacing Air Conditioners

Determining whether you should opt for an air conditioner repair or an air conditioner replacement can be a stressful decision. Unfortunately, air conditioners don’t last forever, but depending on the issue, you may need to either replace or repair your air conditioner. Deljo Heating and Cooling can guide you throughout the process whether you need an AC repair in Lakeview or if you need an entirely new unit. Here are some things to consider when determining whether to repair or replace your air conditioner.

Factors to Consider

The age of your air conditioner may be an important factor when determining what you should do. Generally speaking, air conditioners last anywhere from 15 to 25 years. Older air conditioners usually break down more often and may continue to require costly repairs in the future. If you want an energy-efficient air conditioner, also take this into consideration, as many older units don’t run as energy-efficiently as newer models.

Benefits of Repairing

Saving money is a huge advantage to AC repair in Lakeview, especially if you have a newer model. If your model is on the fence and could either be repaired or replaced, our skilled technicians will guide you in the right direction based on your needs. Another factor to consider is if you and your family are planning on moving any time in the future; you don’t want to invest money into replacing a long-term issue if you will be moving soon.

Benefits of Replacing

When you replace your air conditioner, you will likely invest in an energy-efficient model. While this may cost more money up front, it may save you money on your monthly payments. Investing in a new air conditioner also means you start a new warranty, meaning certain issues that arise may be covered under the warranty. Putting more money into a new air conditioner will likely be more convenient in the long run simply because you won’t have to constantly have it repaired.

My hot water heater had some leaky pipes due to corroded unions. The repair took longer than I thought due to some unforeseen circumstances. Unfortunately after the repairs the water heater stopped working...
