When should you replace your AC unit in Phoenix?
Air conditioners that have a seasonal tune-up are properly maintained can last a long time—but as the saying goes, nothing lasts forever. When it comes time to replace your existing AC unit, Sun State HVAC brings decades of experience and installs most major brands available today.
But how do you know it’s time to replace? Here are key factors we use to help homeowners decide:
1. Age of the unit:
While age alone isn’t everything, it’s a major factor. Systems over 10 years old may still run if well-maintained, but even 5–8 year-old units can fail early if neglected. If you’re unsure, our team can inspect your system and advise whether AC replacement in Phoenix is the smarter move.
2. System Controls
If system safety or efficiency controls have been bypassed or removed, your unit’s integrity could be compromised. In these cases, it may be time to consider a new HVAC system in Phoenix to restore full safety, performance, and efficiency.
3. Coil Condition
By year 12, most AC systems fall behind current efficiency standards. By year 15, they’re often obsolete. Upgrading with a professional AC replacement in Phoenix can cut energy costs by 30%–40%—especially if you’re planning solar integration.
4. Antiquated Technology
By year 12, older AC systems begin falling behind modern efficiency standards. By year 15, the tech has usually passed them by. New systems can save 30%–40% in energy costs—especially when upgrading through professional AC unit installation specialists, ideal for homes planning solar power integration.
5. Reliability Concerns
Older systems often mean frequent breakdowns, rising repair bills, and untimely failures—especially during Phoenix heat waves. Proactively scheduling an air conditioner replacement Phoenix helps you avoid discomfort, emergency service costs, and system stress.
6. Outdated Refrigerant (R-22)
If your system uses phased-out R-22 (Freon), recharging it can cost $250+ per pound in summer. While workarounds exist, they’re temporary and labor-intensive. A new AC unit installation in Phoenix is often the smarter, long-term solution.
7. Bottom Line
If your AC system is over 12 years old and repairs cost more than 20% of a new unit, a replacement is likely the best choice. It’s not just about cooling—it’s about comfort, efficiency, safety, and long-term savings in the Arizona heat.
