There are many factors to consider before choosing to repair or replace your system. Age and frequency of repairs are something that needs to be considered. The age of system is critical factor to consider when repairing the system to assure it's a good use of your money. A lot of contractors and home owners use the '$5,000 rule'. You multiply the age of the equipment by the repair cost, and if that exceeds $5,000, then replace the unit. If the cost is less, go ahead and repair it. i.e. equipment age: 11 years x repair cost: $550.00 = $6,050. Unit should be replaced. i.e. equipment age: 10 years x repair cost: $350 = $3,500. It’s OK to repair. Energy efficiency is also something important to consider. A unit that is over 10 years old might be causing you high utility bills and will continue to increase over time.
