Is it worth fixing my St. Petersburg home's AC?

The value of repairing the AC in your St. Petersburg home is contingent upon a number of variables, including the age of the system, the severity of the problem, and the cost of the repair. If the AC is reasonably new and the cost of repair is affordable, fixing it is probably worthwhile. However, replacing it with a more energy-efficient model may be more cost-effective in the long run if the appliance is old, needs frequent repairs, or the cost of maintenance is high. Speaking with an HVAC expert can provide you with the knowledge you need to make an informed choice based on your unique circumstances.

How long should my AC unit in St. Petersburg, FL, last?

If they receive regular maintenance, the majority of AC units can survive up to 15 years. Your air conditioner will lose energy efficiency as it ages, which could result in higher utility costs over time.

How do you know when it's time to replace your AC in St. Petersburg, FL?

If your AC unit needs to be repaired more than twice each year, you might want to consider replacing it. Your air conditioner will require more and more repairs as it ages in order to function effectively. Instead of making frequent repairs to an outdated machine, you will save more money by replacing it.

For the first time since moving to Florida I feel like I was given truthful, manageable solutions for my AC issue! I was able to see and understand exactly why my AC wasn’t blowing cold air, was given multiple different options for repairing and maintaining, as well as offered suggestions for a more efficient system in the future. I’m now confident, because of the annual membership I purchased, that the next year will be nice and cool. And if any problems arise I can count on this company to fix it up without giving me the run around.

04/23/24 -Homeowner stated the thermostat goes on and off intermittently. They replaced it with a Honeywell T6 thermostat, and the problems still happened. I verified refrigerant pressures, verified that the filter was clean, and no microbial growth was across the coils, and verified the capacitor was within specs, the drain line was backed up with water in the float, which that kept tripping, making the thermostat blank. I recommended hey chemical drain line treatment be performed with pan tablets, & a drain guard installed to help treat the drain line between maintenances. Also, I recommend an electrostatic filter & a UV Kit be installed to curb the microbial growth development that can lead to clogged drain lines & costly cleanings.

Upon arrival, last code on thermostat was thermostat reboot. Outside units last code was 851 which means communication lost. I cycled the power to get the system back on and place the system and charging mode to ensure that system was operational at its optimal performance. I then had to reprogram the thermostat and system as the unit was running and heating when calling for cooling. System is now operating properly.

Membership maintenance. 12 yr old ream split system. C/U- breaker style disconnect is very old and rusted. High voltage whip connector is loose possibly broken. Turbo 200 capacitor microfarad reading is good. Contactor is pitted loud buzzing noise. Took an on the compressor and fan motor. Checked refrigerant pressures and temperatures. The system is cooling, but could be running more efficiently. Condenser coil and all metal parts are rusting/corroded. Filter dryer is rusted. Condenser is on roof. A/H- interior is clean and free of biological growth. Blower fan wheel has dust buildup. Condensate drain line is clear. The homeowner has a schedule to flush this line with vinegar and water. While performing maintenance today, I noticed the pure air ballast did not have a Lit blue indicator light. Restored power to the system with the door off to verify power in the UV bulb. The UV light did not come on. Tested for power and checked all wiring connections from source to UV light. No issues

Notes: customer keeps thermostat at 77° and changes the filter roughly every 3 months. Occasionally notices a smell when the unit runs. Customer has a $39 coupon for today’s tuneup. Membership is also due for renewal. Summary: the blower wheel has debris build up. I suggest a pull and clean on the blower assembly to improve efficiency. This may also help with the smells. A long term option is to have an oxidizer to control the odor. I also recommend surge protection to help prevent a major surge of power from damaging the equipment.
