Commercial HVAC Repair vs. Replace Decisions: What to Consider When Making the Call

Repair Costs and Frequency

Equipment Age
According to ASHRAE commercial HVAC units have a lifespan of about 15 years depending on how well it’s maintained. That is just an average, and of course, there are a number of variables that could push those numbers one way or the other. For the most part, however, the life of your equipment shouldn’t vary more than a few years away from that number. Make sure you keep detailed records of the equipment’s service history. If the unit gets to be over 10 years old, and HVAC service needs to be done, consult with an HVAC contractor and share the service history. They will be able to help determine the pros and cons of a commercial HVAC repair vs replacement decision.Efficiency and Energy Costs
