When Should I Replace My AC Unit?

Your air conditioner plays an essential role in keeping your home cool and comfortable during the warm summer months. Yet, as time passes, even the most reliable AC unit can lose its efficiency. Typically, most air conditioners can last between 15 and 20 years, depending on the type of unit you have, maintenance history, and how often the system is used. However, even with regular tune-ups and necessary repairs performed, replacement will eventually be required. Therefore, it’s important to keep an eye out for any signs that your air conditioner is not performing as it should.

Top Signs It May Be Time to Replace Your AC Unit Include:


  • Rising energy bills
  • Constant cycling
  • Frequent repairs
  • No cool air at all
  • Hot spots and airflow problems throughout your home

How to Choose an Air Conditioner

The correct size and features are critical for cooling efficiency, dehumidification, and overall comfort when selecting a new air conditioning unit. No single model or brand of air conditioner is best for every home, which is why all major manufacturers offer models made for various types of houses and HVAC systems. However, with so many options available, you may be uncertain of what factors to consider when selecting a new air conditioner. It’s best to evaluate the size of your home, the type of system you’d prefer, whether that be a central AC or ductless unit, as well as energy efficiency ratings when deciding on a new AC unit. You’ll also want to determine what size system you’ll need to adequately cool your space.

Many people think that “bigger is better” when choosing an air conditioner, however, your AC must be properly sized to your home, or it won’t cool it efficiently. This is true for air conditioners that are both oversized and undersized. That's why our Minneapolis air conditioner installation team always conducts an in-home heat gain and distribution analysis to determine the right size air conditioning unit for your property. We’ll ensure your new AC unit is perfectly sized, so your bills remain stable and your temperatures remain comfortable.

Helping You Find the Right Air Conditioner For Your Minneapolis or St. Paul Home

Every home is different. That’s why at Standard Heating & Air Conditioning we always consider your home’s cooling delivery system and conduct a heat-gain analysis, allowing us to guarantee exceptional comfort as well as optimum efficiency. Additionally, when considering a new system, we can also review your energy usage and present you with options for high-efficiency air conditioners that are designed to actually save you money over time. Some homeowners can even reduce their energy costs by 30%! And with potential rebates from your utility company, it never hurts to contact our experienced Minneapolis AC installers to find out more about your available options.

Remember, there comes a point where it may be more cost-effective to completely replace your AC unit than keeping repair it, and at Standard Heating & Air Conditioning, we promise to be honest about when that time arrives for your system.

How Much Is a New AC Unit?

Replacing an air conditioner can be a major investment for homeowners. However, it is a necessary expense for those whose aging air conditioning unit has been on the fritz. The cost of a new AC installation can vary from home to home, depending on a range of factors such as where you live and the type and size system you need. Additionally, the size and layout of your home, the complexity of the installation process, as well as the removal of your old air conditioner, and any additional expenses such as modifications to your ductwork, can also influence the overall cost.

It's important to keep in mind that while investing in a high-quality system might seem costly upfront, it can ultimately save you money in the long run by providing better energy efficiency and longevity. We recommend consulting with our professional AC installation team to determine the best option that not only fits your cooling needs but your budget as well.
