Should You Repair or Replace Your AC/Furnace?

It’s one of the toughest HVAC decisions homeowners face: repair or replace? The right choice depends on a few key factors.

1. Age of the System

  • AC units typically last 10–15 years.

  • Furnaces can last 15–20 years.
    If your system is near the end of its lifespan, investing in a new one may save you money in the long run.

2. Cost of Repairs

A good rule of thumb: if the repair costs more than half the price of a new system, replacement is often the smarter choice.

3. Energy Efficiency

Older units are far less efficient than today’s models. If your utility bills are climbing even after repairs, upgrading could pay for itself in just a few years.

4. Frequency of Breakdowns

Are you calling for service more than once a year? Constant repairs add up and often signal it’s time for a replacement.
