Signs That Your HVAC System Needs Replacing
Your HVAC system heats your home during the winter and keeps it cool in the summer. Therefore, an efficiently running system is essential to your indoor comfort. But how do you know if it is time to replace your air conditioning unit or furnace?
Here are some signs to look for when deciding if it is time to install a new system.
- Soaring Energy Bills: It is normal for your energy costs to increase and decrease some as the seasons change. However, energy bills that balloon without a real reason are a cause for concern. Often it is a sign that your AC unit or furnace needs more power to do the same amount of work. This is usually caused by worn-out parts in an old system. The older a system becomes, the less efficient it is. Some parts can be replaced, and regular maintenance can prolong the life of an HVAC system. But, at some point, you will need to install a new HVAC system. The good news is that installing a new heating or cooling system can reduce your energy bill by 20% or more. Many homeowners find that replacement pays for itself in a short period of time.
- Unusual Noises: It’s normal for HVAC systems to get louder with age. Also, some noises can be explained by a loose part. However, if unusual noises remain after a repair or increase in frequency, a replacement might be necessary. There are certain noises to be particularly concerned about:
- A strange sound before the air conditioner starts up.
- Excessive noise from the outdoor unit
- A groaning and banging furnace
- A loud hum from the blower.

Other Reasons For AC System Replacement:
- Increased Running Time: Pay attention to a system that starts up more often and stays on longer to reach the desired temperature. An inefficient system may be due to bad coils or a failing blower motor. These parts may be easily replaced. However, if your coils and blower are fine, it’s a sign that it might be time to replace the unit.
- Needs Numerous Repairs: If you find yourself regularly paying for heating and cooling repairs, installing a new unit might be more economical. A system that hasn’t had regularly scheduled maintenance probably isn’t working its best. Additionally, it is more likely that the problem is beyond repair. Putting a band-aid on the issue with replacement parts and labor can be expensive and not fix the real issue. However, a new system installed properly and regularly maintained, will put an end to costly repairs. In the process, you will also experience lower energy bills and increased home comfort.
- Your HVAC is Over 10 Years Old
You will notice that your heating and cooling system will need more frequent repairs as it reaches the end of its life. Air conditioners in warm areas, like Birmingham, AL, have a lifespan of around 15 years. In contrast, a furnace will last a little longer, with an average lifespan of over 20 years. Suppose your HVAC system is old and incurring a lot of repairs. In that case, replacement is often the more economical solution long term. No matter the age, replacement is often the only option when the compressor fails on an air conditioner. The same is true if the heat exchanger begins to leak on a furnace. Simply put, the cost of constant repairs when one of these parts fails isn’t worth it in the long run.
