what is the best time of year to replace an AC the best time of year to replace AC is when it breaks that's it you can wait until it breaks or you can you can get ahead of the curve and before it lets you sweating in the middle of summer can get it replaced right you know there are few people there few clients that actually do that most of the clients say just let it die just wait until the last second and then they deal with the issue most of the time that's a big mistake because not everybody out there has a fixed price work right so when you are sweating in 100° weather and you want a new AC you're just going to get whoever comes first and it's not the best decision so be proactive about it you know the age of your unit you should keep it maintained every year at least once a year and when you know it's nearing that time start getting some prices in some goes in and be proactive about it

Watch What Is The Best Time Of Year To Replace Your AC Unit: Common Questions

When is the best time to replace an AC unit?

Late fall through early spring (October through March) is the best time to replace your AC in Tampa Bay. Demand drops after summer, so scheduling is easier and installs move faster. Home Therapist is open 24/7 and offers free estimates any time of year.

What month is cheapest to buy an air conditioner?

November through February typically brings the most scheduling flexibility in Tampa Bay, since demand drops sharply after hurricane season. Contractors are less backlogged, so you get faster installs and more attention to detail. Call or text Home Therapist at (813) 343-2212 for a free estimate any time.

How many years warranty on an AC unit?

Manufacturer parts warranties on registered Goodman, Daikin and GrandAire equipment run 10 years. Labor warranty length depends on the system and is spelled out on your written quote, ranging from 1 year up to 12 years on inverter systems. Repairs also carry a 1-year parts and labor warranty.

When is the best time to replace an AC unit in Tampa Bay?

Replace your AC in fall or winter if you can plan ahead. Tampa Bay summers push systems to their limit, so a unit showing signs of failure in March is far better replaced before June than during a heat wave. Home Therapist offers free estimates and same-day service is often available.
