Addison FAQ

Is there a hard age cutoff where replacement always makes sense?+

No. Age matters, but it's the combination of age, repair cost, and repair history that actually drives the decision, not a single cutoff number.

Will a repair company always push me toward replacement?+

Some do, since replacement is more profitable. That's exactly why getting a second opinion is worth it if a replacement recommendation doesn't sit right with you.

Does this apply to homes in Addison specifically?+

Yes. The guidance in this article applies to residential HVAC systems throughout Addison and the rest of our service area. If you want a read on your specific system, call us at (817) 935-8540 or request an estimate and mention you're in Addison.
