5 Signs Your Air Conditioner Needs to be Replaced
Most air conditioners have a life expectancy of about 10 to 15 years but can vary by brand, the type of system, and if it receives regular service.
An older air conditioner used extensively can lose efficiency and leave you wondering if it needs additional repairs or replacement.
Signs your AC needs replacing include:
- Warm air: After changing the filters and adding refrigerant, if it still blows hot, check for a faulty compressor, blown fuse, thermostat malfunction, or clogged expansion valve.
- Unusual noises: Buzzing might be a loose part, faulty fan motor, compressor, or debris buildup. A newer unit will offer better efficiency, and some include quiet-performance and indoor air quality
- Leaks: Seeing excess water or refrigerant after realigning the drain pan is a sign that your air conditioner needs to be replaced.
- Increased energy costs: Abnormally high bills are a red flag your AC might be near the end of its life expectancy.
- Bad smells: Mildew odors might be mold growth, while a burnt smell might be from melting plastic or an electrical malfunction.
