Repair vs. Replace: Honest Advice You Can Trust
Sometimes a repair is the right call. Other times, an aging or failing system is costing you more than it is worth. We will always give you an honest assessment of whether repairing or replacing your heat pump makes more financial sense, considering the age of your unit, cost of the repair, and energy efficiency. We never push unnecessary replacements.
As a general guideline, if a repair costs more than 50% of the value of a new system and the unit is over 10 years old, replacement is usually the smarter investment.
