What Is The $5000 Rule For HVAC Repair Or Replacement?
Homeowners often use a simple “age × repair cost” guideline to decide between HVAC repair and replacement. The idea is to compare the system’s age and today’s repair cost against replacing the unit. The exact threshold varies by situation, so our Kokomo technicians present clear repair and replacement options after a full diagnostic. We also review efficiency, comfort concerns, warranties, and available specials, financing, and maintenance plans. We offer 24/7 emergency service.
Quick checks:
- Note system age.
- Get a written repair estimate.
- Compare with replacement options and warranties.
