Do You Need a New AC Unit?

It can be hard to tell whether or not you need a new AC unit, especially if you’re not familiar with cooling systems. Here’s a few signs that it may be the right time for Worcester AC replacement:

• Your AC unit is at least 15 years old: Replacing an AC unit is typically recommended every 15 years. If your AC unit falls within this age range, it may be time for a replacement. We can assess your cooling system to determine whether or not an upgrade is necessary.
• Your AC unit isn’t cooling your home like it used to: This could be a sign that your AC unit is past its prime and not working as efficiently as it used to. Signs of inefficiency include long AC run times, high energy bills, and uneven cooling.
• Your energy bills have gotten more expensive: An air conditioner unit generally consumes a large amount of energy, so your energy costs are expected to go up during the hotter months of the year. If there is a significant spike in your air conditioning-related energy expenditure, it may be time for a replacement unit.
• Your AC unit breaks down all the time: AC units that often need repairs are not usually worth the hassle. Perhaps it is time to invest in a new AC unit that will have a longer lifespan and need fewer repairs. If you are unsure of whether or not your AC needs to be replaced, reach out to Green HVAC today. We will send an AC contractor to your residence to take a look.
• Your AC unit uses R-22 refrigerant: R-22 refrigerant is harmful to the environment, so US production of it was stopped in 2020. If your AC unit uses R-22, you’ll need to swap out your system or change your refrigerant.

How to Choose a New Air Conditioner 

There are many different types of AC units, so it can be difficult to decide which one is right for your home. If you’re wondering how to choose a new air conditioner, here are some factors to consider.

The size of your home: Air conditioners come in a variety of sizes. It’s important to choose an AC unit that’s the right size for your home, or else it won’t be able to cool your space properly.

Your budget: Different air conditioners come at different price points, so it is essential to select one that falls within your budget. If you are struggling to afford the AC unit that is most suitable for your residence, Green HVAC can provide special financing to help bridge the gap.

Your energy needs: Different AC units have different energy needs. If you would like an AC unit that is more energy-efficient, we can help you to understand the different energy ratings and select a unit that best suits your needs.
