Rely on the Watts home team to help you choose the right unit for your central air conditioner replacement or new installation.
Signs You’re Ready for an Air Conditioner Replacement
Air conditioners last a long time—but not forever. The time will come when every homeowner will have to install a new air conditioner in their home. Fortunately, it isn’t too hard to tell when it’s time for air conditioner replacement. In fact, there are some clear warning signs to look out for:

- Your system’s age. AC units typically last anywhere from 10 to 15 years or even up to 20 or 40 years, depending on how often they have been serviced.
- Not enough cold air. If your unit is not producing cold air or if the air is cold, but the air stream is weak, there could be blocked vents or an issue with the compressor.
- Any kind of leaking. Condensation is normal around an air conditioner, but excessive leakage is not. If you notice a refrigerant leak, call Watts Heating & Cooling immediately.
- Strange noises. Clanking, banging, whirring, or squealing sounds are causes for concern.
Air Conditioner Replacement versus Repair: The Benefits
When your air conditioner isn’t working as well as it used to, you have two options: try to repair the unit or replace it. Today’s high-efficiency air conditioners can greatly reduce your utility bills, while repair services can add life to your current system. But which is better for you?
Here are some benefits of air conditioner replacement to consider:
- Reduced energy consumption
- Lower utility bills
- Increased comfort

- Enhanced durability
- High-tech options

How to Pick The Right Air Conditioner
Choosing the right unit for air conditioner installation is an important decision, and there are many variables involved. For example, air conditioners may look similar, but their energy efficiency and cooling “size” can vary greatly.
Watts also offers many air conditioners that have advanced features, such as two-stage compressors and variable speed fan operation. These features not only improve the comfort level of your home but can provide additional energy savings as well.
However, determining the best air conditioner for your home goes beyond efficiency. An expert from Watts Heating & Cooling can help you determine the correct size and efficiency rating for your home, as well as any other features you may want to consider. Don’t go it alone!
