Possibly the most important determining factor in whether to replace your A/C unit is its age. Generally speaking, air conditioning units near the end of their useful life around 12-15 years. If your A/C unit is around that age and experiencing frequent issues, it’s probably time to replace it!
If you notice your A/C unit making odd noises such as squealing, grinding, scraping, or loud banging, call (843) 466-6414 to consult about a replacement right away.
When air conditioners are on their last leg they can produce foul odors. Furthermore, if you smell smoke coming from your unit, call us for help immediately!
If the air quality permeating your home is noticeably different, there’s a high chance it’s changing because your A/C unit is failing. In this instance, we recommend calling us to schedule service and turning off your unit until you’ve talked to a pro.
If your energy bills have randomly increased seemingly out of nowhere, it may be due to your air conditioning unit! Plus, an added benefit of newer A/C models is they are much more energy efficient.
Have you found yourself needing to repair your A/C unit frequently? If this is the case, it probably makes more sense to bite the bullet and have our trusted experts replace the entire unit.
If you find that it is taking forever to cool down your home, it is most likely due to poor airflow. Weak airflow comes with age and is a common indicator that your A/C is nearing the end of its days.
When choosing a new air conditioner for your home, consider these key factors: efficiency ratings (like SEER), the size of your home, and your budget. Modern A/C systems are often more energy-efficient, saving you money in the long run and keeping you cooler all spring and summer.
Most Howell-Chase Heating and Air Conditioning installations take just one day, depending on the complexity and your home’s setup. Your technician will give you a more precise timeframe during your consultation.
Yes! Newer air conditioners are actually designed to use less energy while providing better cooling. This should lead to noticeable savings on your utility bills, especially during the warmer Bluffton, SC spring months.
