Whether you invest in bonds or the stock market, you look for a payoff. That goes for major purchases as well. A high-miles-per-gallon vehicle will pay you back as you drive. Your heating and air equipment should be viewed no differently: An energy-efficient air conditioner can pay off, too.
A high-efficiency air conditioner is built to reduce energy costs. Your older equipment may be continuing to operate, but chances are it's costing more each month you use it.
Here are some sobering statistics: An air conditioning unit that is only 10 years old may cost 20 percent to 40 percent more to run each month than a new model, according to the U.S. Department of Energy's Energy Savers program. Models made in the 1970s cost from 30 percent to 50 percent more to operate, according to Energy Savers.
Another benefit of today's high-efficiency models: the peace of mind that accompanies reliability. New air conditioners are much less likely to break down when you need them most. With old equipment, the longer you operate it, the closer it gets to a total breakdown. Partial breakdowns can be just as frustrating: When parts are too expensive or hard to find, you get forced into an emergency, unplanned purchase.
You may think that because your old A/C is still cranking away, it's not costing you anything. But, compared to a new one, it could be costing you plenty. High-efficiency air conditioning is an investment that's built to last long, cool your home effectively and efficiently, and significantly reduce your energy bills, summer after summer.
If you're considering replacing your A/C, feel free to contact the specialists at Rodenhiser. We can explain how you can earn back the return on your investment in only a few years.
Our goal is to help educate our customers about energy and home comfort issues (specific to HVAC systems). For more information about high-efficiency air conditioning and other HVAC topics, download our free Home Comfort Solutions Guide.
