- Does my AC have a filter, do I need to replace it?
Yes, the central Air conditioning system uses the furnace filter to catch indoor dust and debris. It's important that you are changing your filters on a regular basis.
5 Signs Your Air Conditioner Needs Replacement
Purchasing a new air conditioner may seem like a big investment, and some owners may drag their feet. However, there are some signs that you simply can’t ignore. They include:
- Age: Air conditioners are built to last, but over time and through normal use, that life can be cut down. If your AC is over 15 years old, and constantly giving you problems, the best choice is to replace it.
- High Energy Costs: During the Sun Prairie summers your air conditioner can be on for most of the day, which translates to higher energy costs. If your AC is older, or damaged, those same costs can easily double or triple.
- Fluctuating Temperatures: You expect your air conditioner to constantly provide cold air whenever it’s in use. The reality however is that when an AC unit is on its last legs, the temperatures it produces will fluctuate often.
- Noisy Operation: An air conditioner is a mechanical appliance, with plenty of moving parts. Those same parts can come loose and make noise as your air conditioner ages. If you heard banging, scratching, or any other strange noise, it may be time to replace.
- Constant Repairs: In most instances, you will opt for repairs before replacing your air conditioner. At some point, the regular cost for repairs, can equal the cost of a new unit. If you’re constantly having to hire a technician, getting a new system may be the better choice.
If you’ve been dealing with any of these issues, the time may have come for an ac replacement. Our technicians can help guide you through the process and install a system, restoring cool temperatures to your home.
