I need to replace my AC unit. I built the home 15 years ago and I still have the same unit. The unit stopped working in September. I have a 2-story, 2100 sq ft. home and of course I want a good unit for an affordable price.

Maintenance
Preventive AC maintenance plays a big part in keeping your system running efficiently for years of use. Research indicates that a new air conditioner can lose up to 5% of its original efficiency for each year that it runs. So, within 5 years you may find your expensive high efficiency air conditioner functioning at least 25% below its original efficiency. With simple and regular home AC maintenance tips and a professional annual air conditioner maintenance program, you can keep your system running at up to 95% of its original efficiency. This can translate into huge savings over a number of years. Besides, HVAC maintenance also prevents air conditioner problems from creeping up by making sure that minor problems are caught and corrected in the earlier stages. Regular AC maintenance can also increase the life span of your unitr unit.
There are several things you can do for your home AC system to keep your air conditioner functioning smoothly. The easiest of these is cleaning your filter coils. Dust in the air can quickly clog your filters, obstructing the flow of air and reducing efficiency. If your system has a reusable filter, then cleaning it should be enough. If not, get the filter replaced. Ideally, your filters should be replaced at least once a month during cooling season. Factor in extra cleaning of your filters if your air conditioner is constantly used, or if you have pets at home. The outside compressor can be hosed down to keep it clean. Make sure that all hose connections are checked for leaks, and clean air vents and registers frequently. Also, clean your outdoor condenser coils by removing debris and dirt, and keep plants at least 2 feet away. You can also clean the fins on your system's condenser and evaporator coils using a fin comb. This helps bend the fins back to their original position. Get your ductwork cleaned by a professional AC maintenance technician every couple of years.
Modern air conditioners are designed to use up to 50 % less energy than older models. Keep your high efficiency unit performing in peak condition by undertaking regular AC maintenance. Regular HVAC preventive maintenance not only keeps your air conditioner functioning without problems, but enables it to perform at its peak capacity. Make sure that you put your AC through a pre season check up to make sure that your unit is primed to perform in the high demand season.
