First thing first, getting a new air conditioning unit can be expensive. Make sure you cross your T’s and dot your I’s before you buy a new air conditioning system for your house. So remember that not all air conditioning systems are made equal. Some are made cheaper and the price tag will reflect that. With that said the company you choose to get your air conditioning system will be one of the most important decisions that you make. This is getting a professional, licensed air conditioning and heating repair company to install your new air conditioning system for you.

Despite everything hard about getting a new air conditioning system, it is a very constructive thing to do with your home. Increasing your comfort level and at the same time increasing your property value. A new air conditioning system at your home will also reduce your electric bills if you choose the right contractor to get the job done for you. The new technology is a must when installing a new system at your home. With new upgrades coming out every year, air conditioning contractors need to keep up to stay on top of the new technology. With DND Heating & Air Conditioning know that we are up to date with all of the new technology that has come out and we are informed about new changed prior to them coming on the market. That gives us the ability to get training on this new air conditioning technology when necessary before we encounter it in the field.

How Often Should My Air Conditioning Unit Be Replaced?

Getting your unit to last long enough is a challenge enough, but how long is enough? The most common warranty for residential air conditioning systems that are owner occupied is going to be 10 years on your parts. With that in mind the manufacturers know they should make their units last at least that long or suffer copious warranty change outs. This fact puts the minimum life expectancy of an air conditioning and heating system to be 10 years. Now I have personally seen units last more than 30 years, but with the more common life span maxing out at about 15.

The installation manual for your home thermostat is useful in operation of your thermostat. Some functions include always on backlight. Changing the program feature to have one setting for all week or separate settings for the week and each weekend. Others include changing the settings on your thermostat from F to C. I have seen this before on some thermostats that were set to C and the homeowner did not know how to change it back. The other features include system type settings like heat pump or electric heater, gas heater and such.
