Signs You Need AC Replacement
When temperatures rise in Chicagoland, residents rely on AC units to stay cool and comfortable. When your unit isn’t providing that much-needed relief from the heat, it can be difficult to know if you should schedule repair or replacement.
These are common signs that an AC replacement is due:
- Inefficient cooling: If your unit fails to turn on, isn’t producing adequate airflow, or is pushing out warm air rather than cold, a replacement is needed.
- Old age: ACs generally last 10 to 15 years. Once your unit passes the 10-year threshold, it’s time to shop for a new model.
- Frequent repairs: Are you scheduling repair after repair with seemingly no end in sight? Your AC is likely beyond repair and needs to be replaced.
Preventative AC Maintenance
Whether you’re dealing with a new air conditioner or one deep into its service life, regular preventative maintenance by a trained professional can help shed years of wear and tear and keep them off, allowing a system to offer more of its potential year after year.
Regular tune-ups can:
- Identify problems before they escalate into costly repairs
- Minimize unexpected breakdowns, preventing discomfort and emergency repairs

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know what type of AC I need?
When selecting the perfect air conditioner for your home, you’ll need to consider the size of your home, your budget, and your comfort needs. Our specialists can match you to the ideal system and perform a flawless installation or replacement.
How do I know if I need an AC replacement or repair?
Typically, repairs are best for fixing minor issues, such as leaks and defective contactors. If your unit is over 10 years old or its issues are worsening, it’s time to consider replacing it.
How long will my air conditioner last?
Air conditioners average 15 years before replacement makes sense, but whether your unit lasts 10 or 20 years will come down to speedy repairs and annual maintenance.
What does an AC installation include?
AC installation starts with choosing the right unit based on a professional assessment of your home to figure out your cooling needs. The process of installation includes:
- Removal of the previous unit
- Connecting the new components inside and outside of your home
- Making sure everything works right with your thermostat and ductwork
- Testing for performance and comfort
Can I install my own AC unit?
Installing an air conditioner is like many DIY projects: You’re likely to miss the fine details and face hidden problems down the line. A poorly installed AC can cause water damage from drainage problems, present electrical hazards, and drive up energy bills from inefficiency.
