Upgrade Your AC System
You need a reliable AC system to keep your home cool and comfortable, especially when the North Carolina heat hits its peak. If your air conditioning system is struggling to keep up with the temperatures, it may be time for an upgrade. Blaze is an expert at AC installation in Raleigh. Whether you’re building a new home or replacing an outdated system, we make the process seamless and stress-free.
When Is It Time to Replace Your Air Conditioner?
Deciding to replace your AC system can feel overwhelming. You may know something isn’t working quite right, but is it a small fix or a full replacement? Or perhaps you’ve invested in several fixes already and are now ready to upgrade. Here are a few signs to look out for that may mean it’s time to consider a new unit:
Age of System
Over time, AC systems become less efficient and more prone to problems. Most systems have a lifespan of around 10-15 years. If your air conditioner is nearing that age, it may make more sense to invest in a new unit instead of one that’s on the decline.
Frequent Repairs
If you’re dealing with issues or calling for service multiple times a year, repair costs can quickly start to outweigh the cost of a new air conditioner. It can also be less stressful to preemptively replace a declining unit rather than waiting for it to stop working completely.
Increased Energy Bills
If you’ve used around the same amount of energy but have noticed your energy bill skyrocketing, your air conditioner may be to blame. An inefficient system that runs longer to maintain comfort raises your energy bill each month and can cause more wear and tear on an already failing system.
Inconsistent Cooling
Uneven temperatures from room to room can be frustrating and inconvenient, especially if you’re the one sleeping in a hot room in the middle of summer. These uneven temperatures can be due to a variety of factors, but can often signal a problem with the AC unit.
Strange Noises or Odors
If you notice strange noises, like rattling, squealing, and grinding, or musty smells, it may be time for a new air conditioner. These unusual sounds and odors can be signs of more complex system issues.
Types of Air Conditioning Systems We Install
Blaze specializes in expert air conditioner installation in Raleigh, offering a variety of cooling options to fit your home and budget. Types of air conditioners that we install include:
Central Air Conditioning Systems
Central AC systems are the most common way to cool an entire home. These systems cool your home by pushing cool air through a network of ducts. Today’s high-efficiency models offer advanced temperature control and quieter performance than ever before.
Ductless Mini-Split Systems
A ductless mini-split system uses a wall-mounted system and refrigerant lines to cool the air. This type of system is a great solution for homes that don’t have existing ducts, or that have additions or rooms that need extra cooling.
Heat Pumps
Heat pumps move warm air from inside your home to the outside and vice versa, providing both heating and cooling depending on the season.
Why Professional AC Installation Matters
Air conditioning installation is more than just plugging in a new system. AC systems have many components, making installation a precise job that requires technical expertise. Improper installation can lead to:
- Lower efficiency and higher utility bills
- Frequent breakdowns and shortened equipment life
- Poor airflow and comfort issues
- Voided manufacturer warranties
We ensure your new AC unit seamlessly integrates into your existing system, handling any potential ductwork updates, electrical work, or thermostat setup. Our expert HVAC technicians are licensed and insured and will install your new unit with expert precision, saving you time, money, and hassle.
