Upgrade and Save on Your Air Conditioner
How long have you owned your air conditioning unit? If you bought it more than 10 years ago, consider an upgrade. HVAC technology has become much more efficient since you bought your last air conditioner. Upgrading to a new model could cut your energy costs by up to 40 percent, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
How Do Air Conditioners Work?
Your air conditioner does not add cold air to your home—it removes heat. In simple terms, the equipment harvests warmth and humidity from the air and sends it outside. From there, fans blow the leftover chilled air through your ductwork and into your living space.
Your air conditioning unit has four main components:
- Evaporator coil
- Compressor
- Expansion valve
- Condenser
Your air conditioner uses a chemical called refrigerant to absorb heat. You may be familiar with Freon®, the most common name brand of refrigerants.
Here’s how the cooling cycle works:
- The evaporator coil extracts heat from inside your home. The refrigerant soaks up the heat.
- The compressor puts pressure on the refrigerant.
- The condenser releases the heat outdoors.
- The expansion valve regulates the refrigerant’s flow back to the evaporator.
Air Conditioner Installation and Replacement
Should you get a new air conditioner or keep the old one? As a homeowner, you’ll have to answer that question at some point—and it’s not always an easy decision. On average, cooling units last 10 to 15 years with good maintenance.
Besides age, here are some signs it’s time to get a new AC:
- High energy or repair costs
- High humidity levels
- Insufficient cooling
Like an old car that you have to keep taking to the shop, an air conditioner that frequently breaks down is likely ready for retirement. Repair costs add up quickly. At some point, it may be more cost-effective to upgrade.
Our team at Air Conditioning Service will work closely with you to find a cooling solution that fits your home and budget. With the finest equipment and a team of qualified HVAC experts, we’re ready to deliver a product that exceeds your expectations.
What Is a Good SEER Rating?
The term SEER stands for seasonal energy efficiency ratio. It measures how much energy your air conditioning system uses to operate. The higher the SEER number, the more efficiently your air conditioner will run.
How Much Money Can a New Air Conditioner Save You?
Our SEER energy savings calculator can help determine how much you could save on your utility bills. Simply enter your current unit's SEER value and compare it to a newer, more efficient system. You can even customize it to better match your home's system for a more accurate calculation.

“Mohammad was very quick to figure out the problem and get my AC back up and running on a very hot night. Very friendly and efficient.”
“Our top floor unit was malfunctioning on a Saturday night. Our kids’ bedrooms are on this floor, causing a bit of an emergency for us. Mohammad came to service first thing Sunday morning and fixed the issue right away. He was extremely thorough, kind, and patient with our questions. He is a great representative of an already excellent company. Thank you!”
“Had the part on the truck, so the repair could be done quickly. M. did a good job.”
“My technician Mohammed was very professional and personable. It’s because of people like him that I continue to use your services. He solved my problem, efficiently and professionally, and I’m very happy!”
“We just had our annual service visit, and I'm not sure I've ever had such an awkward and unprofessional service call experience. We've used ACS for several years, and prior to today everything has always been great—excellent techs, prompt service, reasonable pricing. We've recommended you to friends and family over the years for your reliability.
Today, my service tech, Mohammed, entered my home without knocking. I had to teach him how to use a Nest thermostat. I had to fetch him a ladder. I had to clean the air filters on our mini split for him. He was on his phone a significant portion of the time, and it seemed to be a call of a personal nature. When he was finished with the service of the units, he once again entered my home without knocking. He did not give me the total amount owned before requesting payment, and I had to ask if there were any issues or problems. He then asked me if I had a cold drink that he could take with him. I told him we only had canned Sprite that was cold. "You don't have bottled water?" he asked. I told him we do not and he said "Okay, no thanks then."
I felt uncomfortable in my own home and uncertain of the technician's knowledge. It was the least professional service I've ever received on any kind of home service. If we hadn't used your company for years, I would never use ACS again. As is, I will be very clear to make sure this particular tech is never assigned to us again.”
“Mohammad is the man and fixed my Ac super fast very likable and professional!!!!”
“THE Green Trucks always provide excellent service. A particular technician, Nikki, is one of the best we’ve had in these 35 years of using Air Conditioning Servicing. She’s thorough, efficient, and an excellent representative of a quality company.”
