Frequently Asked Questions

HVAC systems typically last 10 to 15 years, but frequent repairs, rising energy bills, uneven temperatures, or strange noises may signal it’s time for a replacement. Contact 72 Degrees Texas for an expert evaluation to ensure your Texas Hill Country home stays efficient and comfortable.

Absolutely. The experts at 72 Degrees Texas Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing can assess your aging AC condenser and provide honest, professional advice on whether repair or replacement is more cost-effective. We consider factors like the unit’s age, efficiency, and repair costs, helping you make an informed decision that best suits your needs and budget.

Common signs include unusual noises, weak airflow, or inconsistent temperatures. If you’re experiencing these issues, contact 72 Degrees Texas. Our skilled technicians will evaluate your system and provide honest recommendations for repair or replacement, tailored to your needs.

The cost of a new AC unit can vary widely based on your home’s size, ductwork condition, and the system’s efficiency rating. At 72 Degrees Texas, we provide personalized recommendations and upfront quotes—no guesswork, no gimmicks. We’ll help you choose a system that fits your needs and budget, and we back every install with quality workmanship and decades of local experience.

Most air conditioners last between 10 to 15 years with regular maintenance. If your system is reaching that age—or showing signs like frequent repairs, poor airflow, or rising utility bills—it might be time to consider a replacement. 72 Degrees Texas offers inspections and honest advice to help you decide when it’s time to upgrade.

If your AC isn’t cooling evenly, needs constant repairs, or is driving up your energy costs, replacement might be the more cost-effective option. Our team at 72 Degrees Texas can assess your current system and walk you through your options, whether that means a repair, upgrade, or full system replacement.

The best way to replace your HVAC system is to start with a professional evaluation. At 72 Degrees Texas, we take the time to understand your home’s layout, insulation, ductwork, and comfort goals before recommending a solution. That might be a traditional central air system—or a high-efficiency option like a ductless mini-split or a modern heat pump. Ductless systems are ideal for zoned control and homes without existing ductwork, while heat pumps provide year-round heating and cooling with excellent energy efficiency.

Whether you’re upgrading for performance, replacing an aging system, or planning for the future, we’ll guide you through the process and install the system that makes the most sense for your space. With 72 Degrees Texas, your replacement is done right the first time—no surprises, just solid results.

AC Replacement Wizardry in Fredericksburg, Texas

When your air conditioner stops keeping up—or worse, stops working altogether—you don’t just need a new unit. You need a trusted team who can guide you through the process with expertise, honesty, and care. At 72 Degrees Air Conditioning, Heating, and Plumbing, we’ve been helping homeowners in Fredericksburg and the Hill Country find comfort since 1986. Whether your system is outdated, inefficient, or beyond repair, our AC replacement services are designed to restore your peace of mind and keep your home cool for years to come.

How Do I Know It’s Time to Replace My AC?

Not every cooling issue means you need a brand-new system—but sometimes, it’s the smartest and most cost-effective solution. You might want to consider replacing your air conditioner if:

  • Your system is more than 10–15 years old

  • Repair costs are starting to add up

  • Your energy bills keep climbing

  • Your home never feels consistently cool

  • Your AC uses R-22 refrigerant, which is being phased out

  • You’re constantly calling for AC repair service

If these sound familiar, don’t worry—you’re not alone. Our team at 72 Degrees will start with a full system evaluation and talk you through your best options. If a repair makes more sense, we’ll tell you. If replacement is the right call, we’ll handle everything from sizing to installation to cleanup—always with upfront pricing and a satisfaction guarantee.

Choosing the Right AC System for Your Home

Every home has different needs, and the best air conditioner for your neighbor might not be the best one for you.

We proudly install premium, energy-efficient systems and help you explore available financing options to make your investment stress-free. Many of our customers even pair their installation with smart thermostats and ductwork optimization for maximum savings and comfort.
