Arlington, TX -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/16/2017 -- Decisions. Decisions. When a previously reliable air conditioning system goes on the fritz, is it better to repair it or replace it?

The sharpshooters at Texas Air Authorities know that the answer depends on many factors. They also know that making the wrong choice this fall could be devastating next summer if an AC system that should have been replaced bites the dust in the middle of a blistering heat wave. Rest assured, though, that the crack team at Texas Air Authorities is always on duty and prepared to serve when homeowners and businesses need AC replacement service in Grand Prairie, TX, and beyond.

Consider these facts when deciding whether to repair or replace an AC system:

- Age. A system that is 15 years or older should probably be replaced.

- SEER rating. New systems have a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, which indicates efficiency and potential money savings, of up to 25. Systems with SEERs of 6 or less probably should be replaced.

- Refrigerant. Systems using R-22 refrigerant can be costly because the government if phasing out this product for environmental reasons. R-410A refrigerant is less expensive.

- Repairs. When a system requires costly and frequent repairs, it's time to consider a replacement.

- Comfort. When the unit no longer keeps rooms consistently comfortable, it's time to discuss pulling the plug on it.

- Warranty. Before the warranty expires, think about using it to put toward a newer, more energy-efficient system.
