Should I Repair or Replace My AC?

AC acting up? If you're like most people, you're probably worried about how much it's going to cost to get it fixed. The answer depends on a number of factors, which also determine whether your air conditioner can or should be repaired. Here at Tri-City, we always strive to repair air conditioners wherever it makes sense to do so - we're not in the business of selling you new equipment when you don't really need it. However, there are instances where replacing your AC will be in your best interest financially.

You may need to have a new AC installed if:

• Your current AC is more than 10 or 15 years old and frequently needs repairs
• Your AC is leaking refrigerant
• Your AC is not energy efficient (i.e. you're spending more money on its operation, but your home is never cool enough)

Mistakes to Avoid When Choosing an AC Repair Company

• Thinking that any old AC repair company will do. Many people think it does not matter which AC repair company they choose because they're all the same. They think that they can simply look up a name in a phone book or a website online and they will have the company that they need. This is a big mistake however. Not all companies are the same and there are plenty of subpar businesses out there. Just because they have a telephone listing or a website does not mean they will do quality work. You need to be more discerning and you need to take the time to choose an upstanding company. This way, you will know that the repair work will be done properly and that you will be charged a fair cost.

• Thinking "I can repair the air conditioner myself." Too many people try to do their own home repairs. In many cases, they may be able to do minor repairs, but the air conditioner is not something that should be touched by someone who is not trained to work on them. There are just so many things that could go wrong. If you try to work on your climate control instead of leaving the job to a professional, you could end up damaging the unit beyond repair or even harming yourself. This is not a good way to save money.

• Assuming that licensing doesn’t really mean anything. When looking for an AC repair company in Stamford, you will find that some companies have licensed technicians and some do not. Many people make the mistake of not paying attention to this. They may choose just any company. This can be a big problem for several reasons. To begin with, an unlicensed air conditioning repair company will not necessarily have the proper training to work on the climate control unit. In addition, if an unlicensed company works on your air conditioner and they damage it, there may be nothing that you can do about this. You need to only choose from companies that are licensed.
