Signs You Need To Replace Your Air Conditioner

Replacing your air conditioner is a big step for your home, and many homeowners wonder when is the right time to replace rather than repair. While repairing is typically the cheaper upfront option, it is not always the most cost effective in the long run. Consider the following factors when deciding whether to repair or replace your air conditioner.

  • Age: Most air conditioners last between 15 and 20 years. If your air conditioner is nearing the end of its life, it is time to start thinking about replacement before the system breaks down.
  • Frequent Repairs: As your air conditioner ages, it requires frequent repairs. Eventually, the cost of repeated repairs overcomes the cost of a newer model.
  • Reduced Efficiency: There are several signs your air conditioner isn’t as efficient as intended, such as high utility bills, decreased airflow, and uneven cooling.

The Benefits Of Replacing Your Air Conditioner

While replacing your air conditioner can be costly upfront, the replacement as a whole can provide several benefits for you and your home. Below are a few advantages of replacing your air conditioner in Sylva, NC.

  • Improved Efficiency
  • Better Air Quality
  • Improved Lifespan
  • Less Frequent Repairs

Improved Efficiency

With better technology, newer models of air conditioners have better energy efficiency features than older models. When you factor in the decreasing efficiency of your aging unit, you’ll notice a considerable difference. With higher efficiency comes lower utility bills!

Better Air Quality

A new air conditioner improves the air quality in your home or business. If you have severe allergies or are sensitive to heat, a new air conditioner can keep you comfortable and healthy much better than your old one.

Improved Lifespan

You can rest easy knowing you won’t have to replace your AC unit for another 15 years. If your current air conditioner is old, you might want to replace it just for peace of mind.

Less Frequent Repairs

As your unit ages, AC repairs become more frequent and most costly. Air conditioning replacement reduces inconvenient and costly repairs each summer.

From scheduling the service to Jeremy arriving and completing the service, everything was excellent. We have used Ward Plumbing service several times now and they have done an excellent job every time. One time was installing new toilets. And another time was removing and replacing a sink and cabinet. Each project had its challenges and Jeremy was extremely knowledgeable and did a great job! I will never use anyone else!

Brad and Sam did a good job in checking out our water heater and replacing the water pressure reducing valve. They were courteous and respectful. We appreciate the work they performed. The valve was only a year old, but cost about $200 more than a year ago. Seems like a big jump in cost.

We have a summer cabin located the Franklin area, and suddenly were limited in our hot water. Ward PH&A were responsive in sending out a technician to analyze ur situation. It was determined that we were in need on a new Hot Water Heater. (The existing unit was over 16 years old.) The technician (Alan C) actually came out on his day off to install our new system since we had family gathering in to celebrate the 250th Independence Celebration. He was extremely competent, neat, and thorough with the job, (See photos) and I can wholeheartedly endorse Ward PH&A. Their communication throughout the entire process was superb.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Earl Berry, for your fantastic 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear that our technician, Alan C., was able to assist you with your hot water heater installation, especially on his day off.

Dewayne L. is a fantastic technician with Ward. He went way above and beyond to replace my broken well pressure pump and he also caught problems with my hot water heater on the verge of disaster.
