If you’re having some issues with your Brandon air conditioning unit and the repairs are going to be extremely expensive, you may be weighing the decision of whether or not to buy an entire new unit. For most people, this decision will come down to price. It’s important that you also consider the long-term investment you will be putting your money into. Consider and weigh each and every factor before making a decision. All Temp Air Conditioning has put together some considerations you need to make as a homeowner when dealing with a costly air conditioning repair.
Age of the System
The age of your Brandon air conditioning unit should definitely be a factor influencing your decision of whether to repair or replace. If your system is less than five years old or it’s still under warranty, you should definitely make the repair rather than buying an entire new unit to be installed. If it’s older than that and the warranty has expired, you may want to consider replacing your unit. Speak with your technician to see what your best option is.
Chronic Repairs
If you have gotten the same component repaired more than twice on your unit, you should definitely consider purchasing a new one. The long-term investment will actually save you money than having to pay for the repair and parts each and every time. It will also save you the long-term hassle you will experience in dealing with back-to-back repairs.
Compare Both Estimates
As we stated earlier, sometimes the estimate plays the primary role your decision. It’s definitely a major factor, and if you have a professional provide written estimates for both options, it should be easier for you to compare both options. The recommendation is that you replace the unit if the cost of the repair is going to be 50% or more of the replacement cost.
