Repair: Since almost every part of a central AC system is hidden, it’s easy for problems to go unnoticed. Check for these signs and have repairs done before things get out of hand.

• Spiking energy bills
• Blowing warm air
• Uneven cooling
• Little to no airflow
• Frequent cycling
• High humidity
• Abnormal noises
• Foul odor

Replace: Your air conditioner will show signs of deterioration long before it completely stops working. Look for these signs:

• The unit is over 10 years old
• R-22 use
• Abnormally high energy bills
• Inadequate cooling
• Strange noises or odors
• Poor air quality
