When Should You Consider Air Conditioner Replacement?
It’s safe to say that no homeowner wants to have to replace their air conditioner, but in some instances, there’s no other choice. Consider an AC replacement if:
- Older Systems: Air conditioners are meant to last anywhere from 12 to 15-years. Once your system gets over that threshold it can be more prone to breakdowns, less energy efficient, and overall less functional for your home.
- Constant Repairs: Wile homeowners will always choose AC repairs first when these repairs become a constant trend in your home, you may want to consider a replacement. Regular repairs can easily add up to the cost of a new unit, which can have more benefits.
- Renovations: Are you expanding your home? The current air conditioner may not be able to keep up! AC units are built based on the square footage they need to cool. If you’re adding to that, they may be undersized, leading to high energy costs and poor airflow throughout your home.
Our AC contractors offer quality AC installations that work for your budget and your home needs. We take the time to find a unit that is properly sized and install it according to manufacturer specifications. This way you have a high-quality air conditioner you can rely on. In addition to our installation services, we also offer air conditioner maintenance, which can keep your unit running in top shape for longer!
The Benefits of Regular Maintenance
A quality maintenance service has plenty of benefits, making it a top choice for many homeowners. Whether it’s done monthly or quarterly, you’ll enjoy the added perks that include:
- Improved air quality
- Fewer emergency repairs
- Extended appliance lifespan
- Better airflow
- Energy savings
While maintenance can sometimes be as simple as an air filter replacement, in other instances a thorough inspection is needed. The most important part of any service is knowing you’re getting the best, and at Barker Heating & Cooling we have over 20 years of experience to show for it.

Did a complete diagnostic on a 20+ year old Goodman air conditioner and furnace. The system was not turning on at all. Replaced the air filter, monitored the pressure levels for a proper refrigerant charge. Inspected the cooling coils, tightened all loose electrical connections. Complete diagnostic of the furnace cleaned the burners and furnace cabinet, tested all safety controls, tested gas pressure and furnace combustion, and lubricated motor, bearings, and fan.
