Here Are Your AC Options

When considering a new AC installation or a replacement, you’re going to need to know what’s out there. You don’t want to just replace your old air conditioner with another old, out-dated model, do you?

No, don’t worry. We’re not here to upsell you on the latest and greatest AC gadget you don’t need. What we’re here to talk about are reliable, effective cooling methods that not enough homeowners know about. From a heat pump installation to a central AC installation in Strongsville, OH, there are options out there that you’re better off knowing more about.

Do you think the subject of air conditioning is boring? Well, we’d beg to differ! We promise the information we’re about to get into has everything to do with saving you money and keeping that extra few bucks in your pocket for your next vacation.

How Do I Know I Need a New AC?

This is the first question we need to tackle. Homeowners often keep repairing their ancient air conditioners for far longer than they should, leading to increased costs, more frequent repairs, and overall more stressful headaches to endure. Life doesn’t have to be this difficult, and in fact, replacing an air conditioner can both be cost-effective and make you happier. Take a look below and see if you qualify for an AC replacement.

  • Old age
  • Frequent repairs
  • Inefficiency
  • An expensive repair

When dealing with things like old age, inefficiency, and frequent repairs, a replacement will be able to solve all of those issues when performed by a professional. Expensive repairs will need to be done on a case-by-case basis. A good rule of thumb to remember is that any repair that costs half or more than the cost of a new AC replacement is absolutely not worth it.

Now let’s take a look at some of your AC options.

Central AC

If your system is suffering from old age and needs to be replaced, chances are it was a central AC system to begin with. Replacing a central AC with a new one isn’t a bad idea. In fact, we highly recommend it. These units can be perfect for homes already equipped with powerful heating systems and just need the effective cooling power of a standard AC. They’re efficient, effective, and some of the most affordable units on the market.

Heat Pumps

Now, if you’re in the mood to upgrade your AC, there are definitely options out there. The heat pump is one of the best upgrades a homeowner can purchase. They work similarly to central air conditioners except for that they can run their refrigerant flow in reverse. This means they work as a heating system as well! Those frigid Ohio winters can now be dealt with by your air conditioner, how cool is that?

While they are more expensive to purchase than central AC systems, heat pumps are essentially two systems in one. They’re worth every penny and are some of the most efficient comfort machines out there.
