When’s the Best Time to Buy a New A/C?

3 Reasons Why Spring’s the Thing.

We get it. Replacing your air conditioning system is the last thing you want to have to do. And for most of us, it’s never a good time in our lives to even consider. But, as anyone who has spent a summer in Florida will tell you, A/C is something you just cannot live without. When those temperatures max out and the humidity hits pretty close to the same number, you are going to want your home to be a comfortable respite from the brutal heat.

Yup… it’s gonna be hot.

Being May, you’re probably already using your air conditioning a great deal. While afternoon temps can get rather high right now, we still get a nice break in the evenings. So, your A/C is just getting warmed up. Think of it as stretching before the marathon ahead. If you’re noticing some weird noises, your unit isn’t cooling like it should be or you’ve had to keep the repairman on speed dial, you might want to take the plunge and look into replacing your system. Fear not, however, because right now is actually the best time of year to do just that! Don’t believe us? Here are three great reasons why:

It’s Not Summer.

As we just so beautifully and eloquently stated, it’s not excessively hot out this time of year. There are some moments when you’ll even crack your windows for some fresh air. The same goes for everyone else in the area, who may not know if their A/C system is up for the summer task. If you’re ready to replace yours, it’s easier to schedule a new installation during the spring since many homeowners haven’t had to fully flex their cooling systems yet. Your trusted HVAC contractor will likely have a more flexible schedule that allows you to work around your appointments and other responsibilities. When the others figure out they also need to replace their units during the hot summer months, you’ll already be done!

Also, It’s Not Summer.

We know what you’re thinking, but we repeated that headline for a reason. Replacing the A/C now before it gets too hot gives you plenty of time to do your research and weigh the many options for your new cooling system. In the summer, you don’t have as much time to consider the different systems because you’ll want to replace your air conditioner ASAP to keep your home cool and comfortable. During the spring, you can compare different models and choose a system that perfectly matches your square footage, desired lifestyle, budget and comfort needs. Also, this time of year you are more likely to find special offers and promotions on new A/C systems. But more on that later…

3. It’s Not Summer… Just Kidding… Boost Your Energy Efficiency Now!

To the surprise of no one, an inefficient A/C unit results in higher utility costs. Many systems become less efficient as they age due to failing parts and worn connections. If you have an older air conditioner, it may be a good idea to replace it with a newer one now before your energy usage skyrockets to cover the higher usage. Your HVAC contractor will install a new, energy-efficient model that will work reliably without needing constant maintenance. Just think: replacing your outdated system in the spring will help you enjoy lower utility bills through the summer!
