Things to Consider When Replacing an Air Conditioner

New Install Air Conditioner

In Wisconsin, we have found the useful life of an air conditioner to be 12-15 years. Of course that depends on a lot of things such as repairs and maintenance. The best practice is to replace your air conditioner when the cost to keep it running exceeds the remaining value of the system. If your air conditioner is breaking down frequently and running up your utility bills, it's time to have it replaced.

To really find out if a replacement AC system makes sense for you, call to book an appointment with an AC guru. Remember, we don’t employ sales people and don’t use any high-pressure sales tactics. So if you want the straight story on if you should replace your AC system, book an appointment today. We will evaluate the system and provide you replacement AC options in writing.

We hope you will find Austin Plumbing, Heating and Air the best choice for your new air conditioning system. If you have any questions about the replacement AC systems we quoted, let us know and we will work with you to get the right system for you, your family and your pocketbook. 

Keep in mind that to assist you with the investment in a new air conditioning system we provide financing too.

After you choose the replacement option that is best for you, we will get the AC installation booked and start to pull together the job. Equipment will be ordered in (if not already in stock), installation materials will be staged and any custom fitment work that can be completed before the install day will begin.

The most important day in your new air conditioner's life is the day that it is installed. And if you select Austin Plumbing, Heating & Air to install your new AC system, you are in great hands. Our install team typically arrives between 8:00 and 8:30 AM in an AC installation warehouse on wheels stocked with your equipment and the tools necessary to install your new system. 

We will ensure protection of your home by putting down drop cloths and taking other precautions to make sure your home is protected. 

Most air conditioner installations are finished the same day, typically ending between 3 and 5 PM. Your installation team will then clean up their work area and make sure you know how to operate your new system.

Before heading out for the day, and only after you are completely satisfied with the installation, we will finish any on job site paperwork and collect final payment for the AC installation job. 

Back at the office, our team will make sure your new equipment is logged in our system, registered with the manufacturer (if required) and will assist with any rebate or energy credit paperwork as needed.

Same Day Emergency Air Conditioner Replacements

Not often is an air conditioner unable to be repaired. However, there are some times that an AC unit cannot be fixed or it would be a waste of money to fix an AC system for just a few days of cooling before it gets replaced. When you face an extreme situation like this, Austin Plumbing, Heating & Air offers emergency AC replacement services.

AC, Air Conditioner repair, replace, and installation services

The cost of having a new air conditioner varies because of all of the different variables that go into the job such as air conditioning equipment, accessories, installation, and rebates. Also keep in mind that air conditioning units come in different sizes, efficiency and types which greatly affects the cost. 

Budget-minded air conditioning systems will typically cost between $4,200 and $6,500.

Mid-rage air conditioning systems that are more efficiency focused and have other features over budget type systems will cost between $5,500 and $9,000.

High-end air conditioning systems are loaded with all of the bells and whistles and have the highest efficiency and comfort features. Many times this type of system doesn’t make financial sense based on how we use air conditioning systems in Wisconsin because of the cost range of between $7,500 and $13,000.

The way you utilize your air conditioner is something Team Austin takes into consideration when designing and planning for an air conditioner installation.

The length of time you plan to be in your current home will likely play into your decision when it comes to a replacement AC system.

Efficiency
