Signs Your AC Needs Replacing or Repairing

As reported by Sealed, here are 8 signs that your home AC needs replacing or repairing:

1. It's Nearing Replacement Age

However, each type of AC has a different lifespan. For example, a central AC can last between 10-30 years. A window AC can last up to 10 years, a portable AC in the range of 5-10 years, and a home AC can last up to 15 years.

2. Not Feeling Cold

Besides age, decreased function can also be a sign that the AC unit needs replacing or just component repair.

This decreased function can include no longer feeling cold. If it doesn't feel as cold as usual, there's clearly a problem with the AC.

3. Taking Too Long to Cool

AC units that are programmed to automatically turn themselves off when the room temperature reaches the desired temperature.

To reach this temperature, the AC usually runs for about 15-20 minutes, then turns itself off. If the AC is running continuously, there's probably something wrong.
