HVAC System and Ductwork Replacement 101

No homeowner is excited about the idea of HVAC system and ductwork replacement, but sometimes it’s necessary. How can you know if replacement is your best option, and what can you expect from the replacement process? Consider this your quick 101 guide that will point you in the right direction so you can move forward with confidence.

When Should You Replace the HVAC and Ductwork?

Determining whether it’s time for a replacement may be easier than you think. Here are the signs indicating replacement is your best path forward:

• Your system requires repeated repairs.
• The ductwork is damaged beyond repair.
• The system or ductwork is not the correct size for your property.
• The system is between 15 and 20 years old.

If any of these signs ring true for your heating and cooling system, it’s a good idea to consider replacement with a qualified HVAC company you can trust. Continuing to use a system with these issues will typically mean you spend more money on inefficiency, high energy costs, and HVAC repairs than it would cost to invest in a replacement.

What to Expect from the Replacement Process

It is possible to replace only the HVAC components and not the ductwork. However, in most cases replacing the entire system will help you achieve maximum system performance and efficiency. The installation process will typically take one day, although more complex installations may require two days. A reputable HVAC company will protect the work area and clean up after the installation. They work quickly and efficiently so you can get on with life in your household.
