Do You Need Air Conditioning Replacement?

One of the biggest challenges homeowners face with an aging AC unit is knowing when to repair vs. replace. The older the system is, the more sense it makes to replace—generally speaking. When considering AC replacement, questions to ask yourself include:

  • How often am I making repairs? Are the costs exceeding what I’d pay for a new system?
  • How efficiently is my system working? Am I paying significantly more for cooling this year than I did this time last year?
  • Will my next repair cost me over half of what an AC replacement would?

We’re happy to go over the answers to these questions with you to help you decide if it would be more economically feasible to replace your system or make a repair.

Your Central Air Conditioning Installation

Most homes throughout New York and beyond are equipped with a central air conditioning system, and for good reason.

Central AC installations are convenient, efficient, and a popular method of cooling over window units. For the best central AC installation, your system should be:

  • Properly sized – A central AC installation that is too large will be just as inefficient as a system that is too small.
  • Efficient – Central air conditioners come with SEER ratings—Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio. Your system’s SEER will determine how well it performs in your household.
  • Well maintained – Quality central air conditioning service doesn’t stop after installation. Maintain system efficiency and effectiveness by enrolling in our Hitech Central Air Inc. (PTAC Experts).

We are the premier dealer for leading brands such as Lennox, Daikin, and American Standard. You can depend on us for unmatched central AC installation.

No central AC is immune to repair needs though, so it’s important you know the signs that it’s time for a service call. These signs include:

Your Furnace Installation Options in New York

There are two common types of furnaces seen throughout New York, Manhattan. The first is the gas-powered furnace, and the second is an electric furnace. One isn’t necessarily better than the other, but both have their advantages.

  • Gas furnaces – Gas-powered furnaces are the most popular type of heating system found in New York homes today. Natural gas is an affordable and plentiful fuel source, and puts out a lot of heat. One downside is if your home has no access to a natural gas line, in which case an electric model will suffice.
  • Electric furnaces – These heaters use a large heating coil to generate heat. The benefit is that they can work in any home with modern electricity. In addition, even though gas-powered systems aren’t inherently unsafe, electric furnaces do offer safety benefits.

Signs You Need Furnace Service or Air Handler Repair

The best way to fend off the worst of furnace emergencies is with routine maintenance. Members of our Hitech Central Air Inc. (PTAC Experts) enjoy a number of benefits in addition to their heating system working as efficiently as possible. These benefits include:

  • 1 free service call each year
  • 1 free assessment
  • Priority service
  • A lifetime repair guarantee

Even with maintenance and 24/7 repair service, you may still be surprised by a furnace repair need, unless you know the signs that one is necessary.

  • Noisy operation – Odd noises outside of the hum of your compressor or fan may mean a component is loose, refrigerant is leaking, or you have ductwork damage.
  • Loss of heating power – There may be something amiss with the heat exchanger, or a leak coming from your air handler that’s causing this.
  • Drop in Hitech Central Air Inc. (PTAC Experts) – Check your air filter. It should be changed every 1-3 months to prevent this Hitech Central Air Inc. (PTAC Experts) problem. Hitech Central Air Inc. (PTAC Experts) issues have other causes too, so if changing the filter doesn’t help, please give our pros a call right away.

Should You Repair or Replace Your Furnace?

This is a common question among homeowners, particularly when it comes to costly or frequent repairs. We strive to educate our customers, so if you’re unsure of what call you should make on your aging or malfunctioning heater, we can help!

Generally speaking, a furnace older than 10-15 years is a good candidate for replacement, but if a small, affordable repair can keep it going for another season or two, it may not make sense for your budget to replace just yet. Contact us to go over repair vs. replacement!

Air Conditioner Maintenance in Manhattan

According to the US Department of Energy, the typical US family spends at least $2,200 per year on energy bills—with nearly half of that paying for heating and cooling. Our hot New York Summers probably cause our average heating and cooling cost to be higher than the national average, because our heating and cooling cost may consume a larger part of our income.

According to research done at the University of New York A&M, the average New York home spends 70% of their household utility budget to heat and cool their home.

Those of us who live in New York agree with that research and know that the Hot Summers make our air conditioner work harder and work longer. You can reduce your electric bill in your Manhattan area home by proper air-conditioner maintenance and an AC Tune up.

AC Tune-Up Saves Money, Cooling Your Manhattan Home Better

Research done at Louisiana State University called, “A Result Demonstration in Residential Air Conditioning Servicing,” stated that maintenance restores performance capacity of your air conditioner, it improves the cooling effect provided to your home by your air-conditioner system and says that proper air conditioner maintenance can reduce energy consumption by as much as 40%.

Let me restate those points:

  1. Proper Maintenance can restore your air-conditioner’s capacity – that means that if your air containing system is rated at 4-Tons, lack of AC Maintenance over a period could reduce that capacity and make it seem like your 4-Ton Air Conditioner is really only a 3-Ton Air Conditioner.
  2. Maintenance on our heating and AC system improves the cooling effect of your home’s air conditioner and the heating effect of our home’s heating system – That means that proper maintenance can make your Summertime home cooler and your Wintertime home warmer.
  3. Air Conditioner and Heating Maintenance can reduce energy consumption by up to 40% - We all want to reduce our electric bill and quit overpaying the utility company bills.

Air Conditioning Tune Ups are Easy to Forget.

Air Conditioning appointments are easy to forget.

Maintenance on our HVAC System is like maintenance on our car or even on our health maintenance – easy to forget.

Forgetting the Maintenance service on our AV & Heat system is why we often let the maintenance service go longer than it should. Forgetting the maintenance service can cause expensive Air Conditioning Repair repairs on their heating system, which can result in an inefficient system or a complex, or expensive HVAC repair.

We all visit our Dentist or our Doctor to get a physical or to get our teeth cleaned to catch bigger problems in a timely manner. The same is true of an air conditioner tune-up and the maintenance associated with it – it will save money in the long run.
