Signs That Your Ductless Air Conditioner Needs to be Replaced

Dec 24, 2021

Ductless air conditioners are becoming more and more popular, as people recognize the unique benefits that they provide. However, they do not last forever. There will eventually come a point when you have to replace your ductless air conditioner. The sooner you recognize when that time has arrived, the less likely it is that you’ll have your ductless system break down on you when you need it most. With that in mind, let’s examine some of the signs that you need to replace your ductless air conditioner.

Increased Operating Costs

The older a system gets, the more it accumulates wear and tear. This causes a drop in efficiency over time, which causes the system to stay on for longer and longer to compensate. This raises the operating cost of the ductless unit. If you notice that your bills are going up for no apparent reason, it is likely because your ductless system is reaching the end of its life.

Increased Repair Frequency

Healthy systems typically don’t need repairs more than once a year, if that. In older systems, though, the increased wear and tear makes it more likely that various parts will fail. These parts tend to fail in rapid succession, since they all wear down at slightly different rates. So, if your ductless system needs to be repaired every few months, you likely need to replace it.

Age

Ductless air conditioners are manufactured to last around 15-20 years. If your system is older than that, it will likely start to experience problems like those listed above. Even if it is not having issues, you likely would save quite a bit of money by replacing your ductless system with a new one.
