REPLACING HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS

SANTA CLARITA, CALIFORNIA

IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT PURCHASING A NEW SYSTEM FOR YOUR HOME

When replacing an existing heating and air conditioning system, it's important to first consider the limitations imposed by your home. Of course, it is possible to install virtually any heating and cooling system in any house, but the cost and aesthetic impacts may be unacceptable for you. When selecting a heating and cooling system for new construction, your options are typically much wider.


For both new and existing homes, it's important to first maximize the energy efficiency of your home. This is the most cost-effective means of keeping your home comfortable, no matter what climate you live in.

WHEN IS IT TIME TO REPLACE MY HVAC SYSTEM?

Knowing when it's time to replace your HVAC system can be a difficult decision, as it can be a significant investment. However, there are several signs that indicate it's time to consider a replacement.


Age of the system: The lifespan of an HVAC system is typically between 15-20 years. If your system is approaching or exceeding this age, it may be time to consider a replacement.


Frequent repairs: If you find yourself needing frequent repairs or having to replace major components, it may be more cost-effective to replace the entire system.


Decrease in efficiency: If your HVAC system is not performing as well as it used to, it may be a sign that it is becoming less efficient. This could be due to worn-out parts, a dirty filter, or other issues.


Increase in energy bills: An HVAC system that is not operating efficiently can lead to higher energy bills. If you notice a significant increase in your energy bills and have ruled out other causes, it may be time to consider a replacement.


Uncomfortable indoor temperatures: If your HVAC system is not able to maintain a comfortable temperature in your home or building, it may be time to consider a replacement.


It's also important to note that, as technology advances, newer HVAC systems are more energy-efficient and can ultimately save you money on energy costs in the long run. If you suspect that it might be time to replace your HVAC system, it's best to consult a professional HVAC technician who can assess your system and provide a recommendation.

Remember that regular maintenance, cleaning, and inspection of your HVAC system can help extend its lifespan and improve its performance, but at some point, a replacement may be the best option for your comfort and energy savings.

ADVANTAGES OF A NEW SYSTEM

Lower utility bills. A high-efficiency home air conditioner and furnace can save you hundreds of dollars each year in energy costs, compared to an older heating and air conditioning system.


Energy tax credits. You can recover up to 30% of the cost of select high-efficiency air conditioners and heaters in the form of tax credits.


Friendlier refrigerant. Due to growing environmental concerns, the U.S. federal government has mandated that all HVAC manufacturers phase R-22 refrigerant-based air conditioning equipment out of production. The replacement is called R-410A.


Enhanced comfort. Advanced technologies that improve energy efficiency also enhance your comfort, so you can enjoy more even temperatures, better humidity control, and a constant flow of conditioned air.


Improved air quality. Better humidity control means a reduced potential for mold and mildew growth, and of course, less energy is used because proper humidity means air feels warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
