South Florida in the winter is magical! The days are cool and sometimes crisp, the humidity takes a much-needed vacation, and everyone seems to gloat and bask in the wonder of it all. It’s the season for outdoor brunches, sliding glass doors left open, and giving your AC a break.
But let’s face it: this utopia won’t last forever. In a few months, the infamous Florida heat and humidity will be back in full force, turning even a short walk to your car into a sweaty ordeal. When that happens, your AC will once again become the MVP of your home. But is your unit ready to battle another sweltering summer?
The last thing you want is to be stuck with a system that decides to quit just as the temperatures hit triple digits. Scrambling to secure a repair company during peak summer heat, when everyone else is sweating it out, too, isn’t exactly a winning strategy. So, before the heatwave arrives, let’s talk about whether it is time for a new AC or if your AC is up for the challenge.
If your AC has been faithfully cooling your home for over a decade, it’s likely not running as efficiently as it once did. Even with stellar maintenance, systems older than 10-15 years are not performing at their peak. And with advancements in AC technology, a newer system could be a game-changer.
Here are some signs your current AC might be holding you back:
Timing really is everything and the off-season is the time to act! If you book during the cooler months, you can avoid the peak-season rush, save on installation costs, and potentially score additional discounts from manufacturers. Plus, upgrading now also means you’ll have peace of mind knowing your home will be cool and comfortable when the heat cranks up.
Don’t wait for the first heatwave to hit. When your AC goes out in July, and it’s absolutely time for a new AC, you’re making decisions from a place of desperation. That’s never a good thing! By planning ahead and upgrading during the off-season, you’ll have your pick of systems, faster service, and likely some savings to boot.
