Well, the temperature is finally climbing, which means soon we will be turning on our air conditioners (unless you already have!). However, if you are in the market to purchase a new one, you should know how to find the right air conditioning system for your home or office at the best price. When hot days arrive, many are in desperation to cool off, and don’t take the necessary time to make the best decision.
If you are going to spend more than $500 on a repair, it should be a wake-up call that it’s time for a new air conditioner. The normal lifespan is seven to 10 years, so don’t count on yours being unbreakable.
Find the right contractor who will take the time to evaluate your current unit, your house and your system. You want a contractor with great knowledge, so ask to see some of the jobs he’s done in the past, as well as his insurance certificate and license. Your choice of contractor can make all the difference – you want someone who will come take a look at the problem and tell you how to fix it.
If you think your air conditioner may need a repair or replacement, call Heatmasters to schedule an appointment. We have over 70 years of full service AV/C repairs in Chicago, so you know you’re getting knowledgeable service you can trust!
