Replacement or Upgrades
The average air condition system will operate safely and efficiently for approximately 10 to 15 years. After that, the system's questionable reliability and reduced operating efficiency typically make the system outdated. For example, 12 years ago the average system had a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) of 8. If the system has dirty or damaged heat transfer surfaces it will be operating around 50% less efficient or around 6 SEER today!
Federal regulations implemented in 2015 require that all new replacement systems have a minimum rating of 14 SEER although in some parts of the country it can be at least 13 SEER. The average rating of a replacement in our area is 16 SEER.
Nearly every one of the air conditioning systems we replace are filled with R-22 Refrigerant which has tripled in price due to regulatory phase-out. An existing system with R-22 that needs to be charged every few months is getting too expensive to operate. This refrigerant is no longer the "norm". Therefore, when we replace a major component on your existing system we verify that the existing evaporator and condenser are compatible with R-410A, the new environmentally friendly refrigerant. Both the indoor and outdoor section of your system must operate on the same refrigerant.

- Home use such as special air conditioning conditions due to a home office, an exercise room, parties or if there exists unnecessary cooling of closed-off rooms or during unoccupied periods.
- Comfort requirements such as stale air problems, specific rooms that are are too hot or too cold, system noise levels, or air that is too humid (muggy) or too dry (e.g. static electricity, dry throat or skin).
- Health/safety requirements such as indoor air quality, respiratory conditions, humidity control, or child safety concerns around your system.
- Property requirements such as if you are planning home renovations or adding on to your home.
- Financial requirements such as the importance of saving money on energy consumption and operating cost, working with a contractor that can protect a homeowner from risk and liability, or your wish to explore financing options.
