When Is It Time To Replace an Old Air Conditioner?

Expert Air Conditioning installations, repair, and maintnance The lifespan of a central air conditioner is about 15-20 years. Once an old air conditioner starts to go, repair costs can really add up. Common repairs can range from $200-$2000. Replacement is often a better investment than constant repairs.

New air conditioners are about 60% more efficient than their 15-year-old counterparts. Better efficiency translates into lower utility bills which can partially offset replacement costs.
