What is HVAC?

The term HVAC stands for “heating, ventilation, and air conditioning.”
They are the three central units within the standard home or commercial
building that is responsible controlling the temperature and maintaining
the air quality. A regulated standard for all new constructions, they
also provide heating and cooling for the building.

When Should HVAC be Replaced?

There are a few factors to consider when you are deciding whether you should
replace your HVAC system or not. Consider the following when making a decision:

• Age of Your System. This is one of the most important factors to consider. You can typically
  expect your air conditioner to last around 15 years, but if expensive
  repairs are needed at 10 years, it should most likely be replaced.
• Efficiency of Your System. If your system is older, it may cost you a lot of money to operate it
  on a daily basis. Is your energy bill more expensive every month? Purchasing
  an energy efficient system can save you money in the long run.
• Expensive Repairs and Frequent Breakdowns. It is important to weigh the cost of repairs and purchasing a new unit.
  How frequently are you having to repair your system? Are they expensive
  repairs? Is it worth it to pay for repairs?

When to Change HVAC Air Filter

You should have your unit serviced about once a year. The filter should
be changed every three months at least. You should change your air filter
about once a month if you: 1) run your system for 6-12 months of the year,
2) have pets, 3), have a large family, 4) smoke, 5) have allergies, 6)
live in a windy area, etc.
