When To Upgrade Your AC System
AC problems turn up more frequently in systems more than 10 years old. Of course, we don’t all know how old our AC systems are off the top of our heads, but you can find out by checking the manufacture date of your system; you should be able to find this on the nameplate of the condenser box (on the outside of your house).
Remember, though, that younger systems can fail, too. It could be a manufacturing issue. It could be accumulative (untreated) damage; either way, you’ll want to get it seen to before it’s too late. A good rule of thumb is to schedule an AC system checkup at least once a year. Twice is ideal; once in the spring, before the heat sets in, and again in the fall to make sure your AC unit is winter-ready.
Keep an eye out for any of these problems:
- Warm air blowing from your AC unit
- Unusual noises and/or unpleasant odors coming through the vent
- Your AC turning on and off independently or seemingly at random
- Fluctuating temperatures
- Higher-than-usual energy bills
Any of these problems could be the result of a broken part and simply require a quick Schaafsma repair. If that’s the case, our NATE-certified technicians will find the best, most affordable solution available.
But if the problem is more fundamental, you may want to consider upgrading your AC system. Our technicians will assess your living space and talk you through the best AC system solution for your home and budget.
What Are The Benefits of Installing a New AC System?
Installing a new AC system may seem like a big undertaking, but if repairs are no longer a viable option, it’s worth doing. Muskegon residents have found these benefits some of the biggest draws of installing a new AC:
- Benefit from better performance: It goes without saying that modern, state-of-the-art AC systems are technologically superior to older models. By investing in a new model, you’ll benefit from the latest air conditioning technology that’ll regulate temperature seamlessly and efficiently throughout your entire space – with minimum input from you, as well.
- Lower your bills: Evidence suggests you could save hundreds of dollars a year by investing in a new AC system. This is because they are generally more energy-efficient – they achieve more with less – than older models and run more smoothly. So despite the initial installation cost, a new system will pay for itself in the long run.
- Sit back and relax: With a new AC system, you won’t have to worry about your unit acting up for a long time to come. You’ll be able to rely on it for near-instant air conditioning, exactly as and when it’s needed, seemingly by itself. Think what you could do with the time spent inspecting and fixing your AC every year!
How To Choose The Best AC System For Your Home
Schaafsma doesn’t do guesswork; there’s a science to finding the best AC system for your home and we apply the same expertise to our surveying as we do to our technical work. We’ll help you avoid spending too much on an inappropriate and ill-suited AC system.
Schaafsma technicians will survey your home and consider myriad factors when making a recommendation for a new AC system. The two most important of these are:
Size
It can be tempting to opt for a smaller, cheaper AC system in the hope that it will perform ‘well enough,’ but if your system is simply too small for your space, you won’t feel the effects and will have to keep it functioning at a high level for longer. So the money you saved on the unit soon disappears in bills.
Likewise, a system that’s too large will have to work harder to regulate a consistent temperature throughout your home, as its automated systems will force it on and off regularly. Just like with a small system, this could affect your energy bills.
System Type
As anyone who’s looked up AC systems will tell you: it’s not as simple as choosing a make and model. You also have to consider different types of AC system and which offers the best solution for your specific circumstances.
The most common AC system in Muskegon is a central AC system. They’re a reliable, comprehensive option for supplying cool air evenly throughout your home and offer a hassle-free, hands-off air conditioning solution.
If you’re looking to air-condition a smaller space, however, you may want to invest in a more expensive – though more flexible – ductless mini-split system. Ductless mini-split systems allow you to localize your air conditioning within spaces and rooms, meaning they can be somewhat more energy-efficient than traditional central AC systems. They’re smaller, too, and are usually placed outside the home, so you’ll notice less noise.
Many factors go into making the perfect AC system choice; let our team help you with the technical side of things by scheduling a quick and easy consultation. We’ll do the heavy lifting.
