New Year, New Unit: Is It Time to Update Your HVAC System?

Your HVAC system is one of the most vital systems in our homes. But could yours be ready for retirement? Is it time to consider a heating and cooling update? Here’s how to tell if the new year is a good time for a new unit.

Your System Over the Hill

An older system won’t be as effective or as efficient as a new one. Generally speaking, most heating and air conditioning systems last 10-15 years. If yours has reached that milestone, it’s worth looking into an update. It will save you money on both energy use and potential repairs. 

Your Energy Bills are Sky High

Does it seem like your energy bills keep going up and up even if you’re trying to pay attention to where your thermostat is set? It could be that your aging equipment just isn’t up to the task when it comes to energy efficiency. New models are increasingly more energy efficient. An upgrade could mean significant savings on your utility bills.

The Temperature is Never Quite Right

Inconsistent temperatures are a sign that your HVAC system isn’t working as well as it should. Units stop performing as they age, creating inconsistencies in the temperature in your house. Upgrading to a new model can increase your home’s comfort while using less energy in the process.
