HVAC System Replacement in Dallas, TX

When to Replace Your HVAC System

There are times when you may be able to repair your HVAC system and get it back up and running like normal. But there are other instances when an HVAC system replacement makes more sense. Here are some signs that it’s time to replace your HVAC system.

Rising Utility Bills

If you’re running your HVAC system like normal, but your utility bills are rising, it may be time to look into an HVAC replacement. The efficiency of your system reduces over time due to normal wear and tear. Dirt and corrosion build up inside the system that causes it to lose its efficiency.  When you notice your bills rising, call the team at Integrity so that we can take a look at your HVAC system to determine if there is a problem, and the best way to fix it, or if a replacement is needed.

Aging System

Like appliances throughout your home, your HVAC system will need to be replaced as it reaches the end of its lifespan. The typical lifespan of an HVAC system is 15-20 years. Some need to be replaced sooner if they are used frequently, while others may last longer. If your HVAC system is 15 to 20 years old and not working as well as it used to, you may want to look into having it replaced.

Uneven Temperatures

If you have a room in your house that is extremely warm, while others are freezing, there is a problem with your HVAC system. It may be due to the size of your HVAC system or issues with the ductwork. Either way, you’ll want to have it looked at so that your home has a consistent temperature throughout.

System Constantly Running

An HVAC system that is consistently running can signal a problem. Your system should do its job to regulate the temperature, but not have to run constantly to get the job done. A system that is working overtime will burn out and make your electricity bills rise.

Costly Repairs

If your repair bills are mounting, it may be more cost-efficient to look into a new model. Fixing a problem may get your system to work, but may need another repair is just around the corner. You can alleviate this issue by looking into an HVAC system replacement by Integrity.

Energy-Efficient Model Options

As we mentioned above, there are energy-efficient HVAC systems that can provide rebates and tax credits. The system you choose will vary with your home’s needs and your budget, but here are some energy-efficient models to choose from:

Air-Source Heat Pumps

These are one of the most energy-efficient HVAC systems on the market. Heat pumps work by transferring heat from one place to another rather than generating heat by burning fuel like a furnace does. Since it takes less energy to move existing heat, rather than creating new heat, these heat pumps are more energy efficient. Since they run solely on electricity, they can also use solar panels for power.

Ducted Heat Pumps

A ducted heat pump connects to your home’s central air duct system. It works to deliver air through supply vents throughout the home. These systems are most energy efficient in large houses and houses with existing ductwork that is in working condition.

Ductless Heat Pumps (Mini-Splits)

Ductless heat pumps are a type of heat pump that does not need to be connected to ductwork to function. They have an outdoor unit and one or more indoor units. Each indoor unit can work on its own, so you can set the temperature differently in different rooms.

Houses without existing ductwork or with damaged ducts can benefit most from these systems. They are also the most energy efficient for new home additions.

If you are unsure what type of HVAC system replacement is best for your home, one of our friendly and knowledgeable technicians can offer the best recommendation to keep your home’s air temperature comfortable.

Replacement Timeline & What to Expect

While all replacement timelines can differ, here is what a typical timeline looks like so you can have an idea of what to expect:

• The contractor visits your home to determine your needs, provides HVAC replacement options, and estimates.

• Once you decide on which system you want, the equipment will be ordered. The time that it takes to arrive can vary, but it usually takes 1-2 weeks. 

• After all the equipment arrives, installation will be scheduled. The old unit will need to be removed, and the new system will be installed. Any ductwork or modifications will be taken care of during this time. This can take up to 5 days or more, depending on the complexity of the project.

• Once the system is replaced, it will be tested for airflow, refrigerant levels, and thermostat operation. This can take a few hours to complete.

It’s important to remember that shipping, unexpected problems, and obtaining certain permits can all alter the timeline of your project. When you hire Integrity for the job, we will keep you informed of all aspects of your HVAC system replacement so that you always know what is going on with your project.
