In Canada, our air conditioning units may not get as much use as our furnaces, but they still need our attention. A well-cared-for central air conditioner can last for 10 to 15 years. A neglected unit, on the other hand, will start causing you problems much sooner. You’ll ultimately end up spending money to replace it earlier than necessary. 

In order to keep your central air conditioner running smoothly and efficiently for as long as possible, there are a few tips you can follow. And if your home has an older AC unit that’s near the end of its lifespan, there are signs to watch for that will tell you it’s time to start planning for a replacement. 

Maximize Your Central Air Conditioner’s Lifespan 

The best way to get the longest life out of your central air conditioner is to make the right decisions from the start. 

  • Choose the right size of air conditioner for your home. 

An air conditioner that is too small or too large for your space will result in extra wear and tear on its parts. If the unit is too large, it will turn on and off too quickly. If it’s too small, it will stay on too long as it struggles to cool your home down. In both cases, the lifespan of your AC will be reduced.  

  • Make sure the air conditioner is installed properly. 

This is where the services of a professional are essential. They can make sure the ductwork leading to and from your air conditioner is the proper size and design. They can also check that the ducts are sealed properly to keep the airflow at its best. 

Once you’ve ensured your home has a properly sized and installed air conditioner, the best way to ensure a longer lifespan for your AC unit is to focus on good maintenance. Ideally, air conditioners should be serviced once a year in the spring to get ready for the warm months.  

This annual tune-up will include: 

  • Changing or cleaning the air filters 

  • Cleaning the evaporator and condenser coils 

  • Checking the refrigerant and pressure levels 

  • Lubricating moving parts and tightening electrical connections 

  • Checking thermostats and sensors 

Minimize Your Energy Bills 

The price of having a cool home all summer shouldn’t be sky-high energy bills. If you have a newer model of air conditioner, chances are it runs more efficiently. But if you have an older unit that’s not ready to be replaced yet, there are steps you can take to help it use less energy and keep those bills down. These include: 

  • Clean your vents regularly. Vents that are free from dust and debris will allow the airflow through your house to be consistent.  
     

  • Never leave doors and windows open while your air conditioner is running. This will cause the cool air to escape and force your unit to work harder than it needs to.  
     

  • Seal up any air leaks in your house. Just like leaving doors and windows open, leaks around doors or windows let all the cool air out and keep your air conditioner running longer.  

  • Program your thermostat to a consistent, reasonable temperature. The ideal temperature for most homes is around 21 degrees Celsius.  
     

  • Make sure your condenser is in a shaded area that is free from obstructions. You should try to keep plants and other objects at least half a meter away from the air conditioner so that air is free to move around it.  
     

  • Keep curtains and blinds closed, especially during the hottest times of the day. This helps keep the temperature in your house down, which takes some of the burden off your air conditioner.  
     

  • Change your air conditioner filter regularly. When the filter is dirty, it can reduce the airflow and make your AC unit work harder. 

Should You Upgrade? 

When your AC unit is nearing the end of its lifespan, it can be tricky to know when the right time is to replace it.  

There are some tell-tale signs you can watch for that let you know it’s time to consider a replacement. For example: 

  • Frequent repairs 
    There’s nothing wrong with the occasional repair job to deal with common issues and keep your AC unit working longer. But if the repairs are becoming frequent and extensive, it can often be more cost-effective to invest in a new unit.  
     

  • Unusual sounds 
    If your AC unit is making loud noises or sounds you’ve never heard before, there could be a serious issue you need to address.  
     

  • Rising energy bills 
    When your energy bills start to creep up despite your efforts to maximize efficiency, your best bet is often to invest in a new unit. New air conditioner models can save you up to 30 percent. 

While installing a new air conditioning system can seem daunting, remember that a new, high-efficiency unit will likely make your home more comfortable and save you money in the long run. If you have questions or would like to schedule an appointment, contact JT Heat & Cool for a Free Estimation.

BTU Calculator: Size and air conditioner capacity (AC size calculator)

The size of air conditioner isn’t really what you should focus on – it’s the cooling capacity (BTU) that you should look at. The cooling capacity you’ll need largely depends on how large the space you want cooled is. Below is a table that’ll give you an idea of what cooling capacity you’ll need based on room size:

Room SizeRequired Cooling Capacity (BTU)
100 – 250 square feet5000 BTUs
150 – 250 square feet6000 BTUs
250 – 300 square feet7000 BTUs
300 – 350 square feet8000 BTUs
350 – 400 square feet9000 BTUs
400 – 450 square feet10 000 BTUs
450 – 550 square feet12 000 BTUs
550 – 700 square feet14 000 BTUs
700 – 1000 square feet18 000 BTUs
1000 – 1200 square feet21 000 BTUs
1200 – 1400 square feet23 000 BTUs
1400 – 1500 square feet24 000 BTUs

In addition to this table, here are a few other tips to help you choose an air conditioner with the right cooling capacity:

  • If a room gets a lot of sunlight, you should add 10% to the cooling capacity recommended by the table above.
  • If you’re going to be cooling a kitchen, choose an air conditioning unit that has at least 4000 more BTUs of cooling capacity than recommended by the table above.
  • For rooms with high traffic or for rooms that regularly have more than two people, add about 600 BTUs for every extra person.

You must check your thermostat batteries when your AC is not working or turning on. Replace the batteries if they are dead. If the batteries are in working condition, check the thermostat settings to determine whether the cooling mode is on with your desired temperature settings. If your thermostat is on, but your AC is still not turning on, check the circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker is tripped, your AC won’t turn on. Reset the circuit breaker by flipping the switch off and then on.

Your AC will not blow cold air if a dirty air filter blocks the airflow of your unit. A dirty air filter can further freeze up the condenser unit and limit the cooling power of your AC. Changing your air filter every month will help your AC unit blow cold air.

Very high percentage was because of the coolant is leaking.  And the coolant smell like burned plastic or medicine.

When the coolant in your air conditioner starts leaking, the temperature will vary, and the unit will not perform accurately. Refrigerant leaks can result in:

  • Low efficiency
  • High power consumption
  • Coil freezing
  • Damaged compressor
  • Uneven cooling

Contact us for a site inspection service that we can inspect your air conditioner regularly for any refrigerant leaks.

An air conditioner can make different sounds depending on the type of problems. There are different reasons why your air conditioner is producing a variety of sounds:

  • A refrigerant leak can produce a hissing sound.
  • If you hear clicking sounds when you turn on and off your AC, it might be a relay problem.
  • Thumping, rattling, or banging noises mean there is a problem with a blower or motor assembly.
  • The compressor or fan motor produces a screeching noise.
  • Faulty electrical components produce a buzzing sound.

Book our service tech for a check up if you are unable to inspect.

Water leaking outside from your AC on a hot or humid day, especially when the unit is running, is considered normal. It is also normal if the water leakage occurs outside in cool weather at a temperature of 60 degrees or less, as the unit can freeze up and leak water when it melts. Other reasons for your air conditioner to leak water outside, include:

  • Dirty air filters
  • Improper installation
  • Blocked drain pipe
  • Low coolant levels
  • Broken condensate pan

The drain pipeline can also become clogged with dust, algae, and dirt. If water does not drain properly, mold, fungus, and mildew can develop. Also, gasses and bad odor can filter into your home. To prevent this, make sure your drain line is regularly maintained, cleaned, and inspected. Air conditioners which are not mounted level may not drain properly.
