It took me a long time to decide that I was ready to purchase a new AC system.
My old one was over a decade old and no matter how often I had it serviced or replaced the air filter, it never cooled my house efficiently.
Every month, I’d hold my breath in anticipation of what my utility bill would be. Although I knew my AC system wasn’t running efficiently, I also knew that it still worked. My air vents had cool air running through them and the thermostat appeared to be communicating with the AC equipment just fine. I ran that air conditioner as long as I could. When a holiday weekend rolled around though, I decided to take the plunge and purchase a new AC unit. A holiday sale was always one of the best times to purchase a large appliance, so I was happy to act on this major savings event. They were offering 30% off all major air conditioning unit brands and free installation, which I thought was a steal! Not only was a new air conditioning system expensive, but the installation wasn’t cheap either. I obviously didn’t know how to remove or install HVAC equipment, so I needed an HVAC professional’s help with the process. It was a couple hundred dollars that I had to spend no matter what. The holiday sale was the perfect time for me to purchase my new AC unit and have it installed! I’m glad I waited as long as I could to purchase a new AC unit. I was able to save a lot of money.
