Repair vs. Replace — Making the Right Decision
One of the most common questions we hear is whether to repair an existing system or invest in a replacement. We provide honest, unbiased recommendations based on the following factors:
| Factor | Consider Repair | Consider Replace |
|---|---|---|
| System Age | Under 10 years old | Over 15 years old |
| Repair Cost | Less than 50% of new system | More than 50% of new system |
| Efficiency | System runs efficiently | High energy bills, low SEER/AFUE |
| Repair History | First or second repair | Frequent breakdowns |
| R-22 Refrigerant | N/A | System uses R-22 (phased out) |
We use the “5,000 rule” as a general guideline: multiply the age of your system by the repair cost. If the result exceeds $5,000, replacement is usually the better investment.
