Summer is here, and if your current AC system is struggling to keep your home cool and comfortable, it’s time to call the cooling experts at Tri-Star Heating and Cooling for the installation of a new energy-efficient unit.

Signs Indicating the Need for a New AC System

A professionally serviced and maintained AC unit should last about 15 years. But time and usage naturally take their toll, and here are some of the signs indicating you may need to have Tri-Star install a new system for you.

• No cool air: The lack of cool air flowing out of your vents might simply mean you need to replace your old, dirty filter. Or it may indicate your unit has seen better days and can no longer keep your home cool during the heat of summer.
• Frequent breakdowns and expensive repairs: If your unit is frequently breaking down and needing costly repairs, it will probably be more cost-effective to replace it rather than repair it again.
• Strange sounds: When your unit’s operating properly, it should make very little noise. Instead, if it’s making strange noises – like chattering, squeaking, grinding – it’s probably telling you there’s a serious problem and its best days are behind it.
• Strange odors: Your AC unit should send out nothing but clean, cool air. If you smell something strange, like smoke or something burning, that means your unit has a serious problem, a problem possibly indicating that replacement is in order.
• Rising utility bills: If you haven’t changed your thermostat settings, but your utility bills keep climbing, that’s a pretty good indicator your old unit is struggling to cool your home and replacement is probably the best path forward.
