Signs You Need AC Replacement
System Is 12+ Years Old
Older units lose efficiency every season and often run on equipment that’s no longer supported.
Frequent Recent Repairs
Recurring repair calls on the same unit usually mean the next failure is close behind.
Runs on R-22 Refrigerant
R-22 was phased out of production, so refrigerant for older systems is scarce and expensive.
Energy Bills Keep Climbing
An aging compressor or worn motor draws more power to do the same job it used to do efficiently.
High Repair Costs
If repair costs hit 50% of a new system, replacement is usually the better choice.
Rooms Never Cool Evenly
A system that’s undersized or failing struggles to push air through the whole house.

Frequently Asked Questions for AC Replacement
How do I know if I need AC replacement instead of repair?
Age, refrigerant type, and repeat repair costs are the main factors. A unit over 12 years old, running on R-22, or facing a repair quote near half the cost of a new system is usually a better candidate for replacement.
How much does AC replacement cost?
A single-stage system runs $10,800 to $18,000. A two-stage system runs $14,200 to $21,100. Cost depends on tonnage, ductwork condition, and any electrical work the install requires.
How long does AC replacement take?
Most standard system swaps are completed in a single day. Jobs that require duct modifications or electrical panel upgrades can take longer, which is confirmed during your quote.
What happens to my old AC unit?
The old unit is removed and disposed of as part of the replacement job. This is included in your installation quote, not billed as a separate charge.
