Should I Buy a New Air Conditioner and Furnace Simultaneously?

Air conditioners don’t run indefinitely, despite the brand or quality. If you’re prepping for air conditioning replacement too? It varies based on your situation.

Here are some things to think about, as well as the perks of staying away from a mismatched furnace and air conditioner.

Points to Ask When Considering Air Conditioning Replacement and Furnace Replacement at the Same Time

Here are the top questions to answer before making your decision:

When was your furnace installed? Furnaces can run up to 20 years, while air conditioners run for about 15 years. If your furnace is over a 15 years old, we suggest replacing it along with your air conditioner. If it was installed earlier than this, you can typically delay it.
What kind of air conditioner are you getting? Lots of homeowners are getting rid of their dated, single-stage air conditioners for variable-speed styles. This uses less energy and enhances comfort by running at several speeds. Air conditioners use the furnace blower to distribute air. So, if you have a single-stage furnace, you’ll have to get a new one to get the total comfort and benefits of a matched variable-speed system.
Can your furnace give the correct air flow? Your furnace needs to deliver the right amount of air to keep your home comfy. An updated air conditioner may need a different indoor coil. So, it’s critical your furnace is appropriately sized for the new air conditioner. An Expert technician, like one from R & M Climate Control Service Experts, can figure out that static pressure of your system and provide the proper advice.
Is the installation tricky? You’ll make it easier on your Expert and your budget if you get new systems together.

Why You Should Get a New Furnace and Air Conditioner Simultaneously

If your furnace and air conditioner are compatible and are properly sized, there aren’t usually any major immediate outcomes. A mismatched setup is typically temporary until the other system fails. You can circumvent the short-term repair by replacing your furnace and air conditioner simultaneously. And, you’ll get these advantages:

Better efficiency: By “matching” your air conditioner and furnace, you’ll ensure everything operates at the greatest efficiency, making your family cozier and decreasing your long-term utility expenses.
Reduced HVAC repairs: If you put in new air conditioning but keep the old furnace, you never know when it might malfunction for good. In the meantime, you’ll shell out for repairs that could have paid for an updated furnace.
Potential discounts: You can save on labor by having both replaced at the same time. And you may even be authorized for an exclusive deal because you’re buying new heating and cooling equipment.
