Things to Consider When Replacing Your Air Conditioner

June 01, 2017

Even with careful AC maintenance, there is a time when every air conditioner will need replaced. We know that annual maintenance will prolong an AC’s lifespan, but when the time arises, the experts at JTech Mechanical will be here to help you get the best air conditioner replacement for your home’s needs in Magnolia. When you’re shopping for a new air conditioner, there are several factors to consider and we’ll help you navigate them all to select the system that will be best for your residence and your budget.

One feature all of us look for in an AC replacement is dependability. Getting the right AC and keeping it well-maintained will give you years of efficient, comfortable service from it. Here are a few other important factors to take into consideration:

  • Make sure your AC replacement is the appropriate size for your home. A system that is larger than necessary will cycle on and off too frequently, resulting in wear and tear on your new system and shortening its life. Likewise, it can be tempting to buy a smaller system to save some money upfront. However, a smaller system can result in increased expenses in the long run if it’s too small to keep your home cool. It will run consistently to try to keep up and will have a markedly shortened life. You’ll pay more on utility costs during its life and you’ll discover yourself AC shopping again much sooner than you would prefer. We can help you determine the appropriate sized air conditioner for your home.
  • Ratings matter. Find the most efficient air conditioner your budget will allow for, because you’ll see the payback every month on your energy bills. Look for high SEER ratings. The higher the rating, the greater the efficiency.
  • Look for a good warranty. We can help you find an air conditioner replacement with a great warranty, and we offer the maintenance service that’s typically needed to keep that warranty valid.
  • Rebates and incentives are always nice. We will keep you in the loop about any specials, rebates or incentives being offered. Many times, you’ll find incentives through your utility company as well when you acquire a high-efficiency air conditioner replacement.
