You were having some issues with your air conditioner or heater, so you called your local service company to take a look. Then they told you that you should spend $10,000… $20,000… maybe even $50,000 on a new unit. Or maybe they were just there for routine maintenance and suggested the same thing.
Your first thought might be: “Wait, I wasn’t ready for this. My unit isn’t even that old. I thought it would last longer.” Or maybe you just feel a little skeptical about the whole thing.
The truth is, sometimes a system really does need to be replaced. But other times, it doesn’t. Many problems can be fixed with repairs like replacing a motor, an auxiliary starter, or any of the other many components that make your system function. These repairs typically cost much less than a full replacement and could potentially give your system more years of service.
Now, these repairs aren’t always the best choice. Sometimes the age, efficiency, or condition of the system means replacement really is smarter in the long run. But as the homeowner, shouldn't you know all of the options available so you can make the decision that’s right for you and your family?
That’s why in some situations, it’s a good idea to get a second opinion and ask if there are any alternative solutions.
At Grant’s Service Company - Where Service Still Matters, we believe in educating our customers about every option — not just the most expensive one. We’ll walk you through the pros and cons so you can make the choice that fits your needs for you and your home.
