An air conditioner that runs into problems this time of year can really ruin your day. Summers in New England mean high heat, and higher humidity, and if your AC suffers a breakdown, you need to get it dealt with immediately before your home turns into a swamp. But if you have an older air conditioner, getting it replaced might be a better idea than getting it repairs, especially early in the summer with months of daily use ahead of us.
When should you repair or replace your heating and air conditioning system?
- Warranty coverage still applies
- Repair cost is low and the system is relatively new
- System has had frequent recent breakdowns
- Unit is 10–15+ years old and showing signs of wear
- Energy bills are rising despite normal usage
- Furnace or AC struggles to keep your home comfortable
If your HVAC system is aging, inefficient, or repairs are becoming too frequent or costly, full AC and furnace replacement may be the smarter investment.
Most of us don’t like to spend money when we don’t have to, which is a sound instinct to follow much of the time. That doesn’t always apply to your air conditioner, however. Repair issues and breakdowns can often develop for months in advance, and waiting until they cause a serious problem with your air conditioner usually means a great deal of expense and hassle. Our trained team is ready to go in the event repairs on your air conditioner are required, but we also believe in stopping problems before they start. That saves you money and can help your air conditioner last longer than it might otherwise. 
When trouble arises with your air conditioner, you need to move fast to get it repaired. Laymen should never attempt to repair an air conditioner themselves: it takes training and licensing, and components such as refrigerant can be actively dangerous if handled improperly. Your best bet in the face of trouble is to shut the system down and call in a professional service right away. But how can you tell which one is best suited for you? We have tons of HVAC repair companies in the area? How do you parse the good from the bad, especially in the face of a breakdown that could leave your home as hot as an oven in a matter of hours. Luckily, there are a few telltale signs that separate the merely adequate from the first-rate on this front. 
Air conditioning season is headed our way, with 
Spring is the time for air conditioning replacement, and if you have an old system that you don’t think is going to make it through another long hot summer, now is the perfect time to get it replaced with a new one. While most of us are accustomed to traditional centralized air conditioners — and indeed such models make a fine choice for a replacement system — you might want to consider alternative options as well.
Spring is here, and that means summer will be here in just a few short weeks. If your 
If you’ve ever checked your air conditioner, you may have encountered frost or ice forming on the evaporator coils. Laymen don’t tend to worry about it too much. Since air conditioners are supposed to generate cool air, the presence of frost or ice seems normal. Unfortunately, the truth is much different. Not only does frost on the coils constitute a serious problem, it will only grow worse if you let it.
