Here are some tell-tale signs your air conditioner is due for a replacement.
You’re paying too much for cooling.
If you do not have any changes in your daily routine, but you notice an unexplainable increase in your electricity bill, it could mean you’re dealing with a failing cooling system.
The typical cause of an inefficient air conditioner is a dirty filter, which keeps your air handler, ductwork, and indoor coils clean. When you fail to change or clean your air filter regularly, your AC will have added strain. Dust and debris can accumulate after so much air is filtered, which restricts airflow throughout your ductwork. Obstruction to the airflow will cause your AC to take longer to cool your home. This problem results in high electric bills since a restriction in the airflow causes the motors and compressor to overheat. But if you’re on top of your filter yet you have skyrocketing cooling expenses, the unit itself may be the culprit.
Your AC has deteriorating parts.
At some point, some of your air conditioner’s components, such as motors, capacitors, and the compressor will fail, making it very hard for the system to perform its task. When a condenser motor begins to fail, it fails to remove the heat from your home effectively. Then, the motor starts to work harder, and the thermostat is not satisfied, causing the motor to run longer than usual. Not only does this issue cause you to have an increase in your utility bills, but it also shortens your air conditioner’s lifespan.
