When your air conditioning system starts breaking down more often, struggles to cool your home, or simply reaches the end of its lifespan, it may be time to consider a full replacement. A.W.E. Air Water Energy has been serving DuPage County and the greater Chicagoland area since 1911, and our team of certified technicians is ready to help you choose and install the right air conditioning system for your home. Whether your current unit is more than 15 years old, running up your energy bills, or no longer keeping up with warm Illinois summers, we are here to make the replacement process simple, affordable, and stress-free.
Signs That It Is Time for AC Replacement
Not sure whether to repair or replace your current system? Here are some common signs that a full air conditioning replacement is the right call. If your AC unit is over 15 years old, it may be nearing the end of its typical lifespan. Older systems also tend to use outdated refrigerants that are no longer environmentally compliant or cost-effective to service. If you notice your energy bills creeping higher even though your usage habits have not changed, your system could be working harder than it should to maintain a comfortable temperature. Frequent breakdowns and repair calls are another strong signal that continuing to patch an old system is no longer the most economical choice. Uneven cooling throughout your home, persistent humidity issues, and unusual noises are additional warning signs that your system may need to be replaced rather than repaired.
What to Expect During the Replacement Process
At A.W.E., we take the guesswork out of AC replacement. Our process starts with a thorough evaluation of your home to determine the right size and type of system for your specific needs. Installing an undersized or oversized unit can lead to inefficiencies, higher energy costs, and shortened equipment life, so getting the sizing right is a critical first step. Once we recommend a system, our certified technicians handle the complete installation from start to finish, including removal of your old equipment and proper disposal. We work with leading manufacturers to offer a wide range of high-efficiency systems that qualify for available rebates and incentives. After installation, we walk you through the operation of your new system and make sure everything is running perfectly before we leave.
