If you're replacing an old built-in oven with a new one of the same size and type, you'll only need to pay for the new oven's cost. However, if your new built-in oven is a different size or type, you might need to pay for construction updates or the cost of a new outlet or gas line.

The number one culprit of high energy bills is older appliances, especially fridges and freezers that are left on all the time. These two appliances tend to last a long time, which is good, but it also means that newer models are usually significantly more energy-efficient due to upgraded technology. The second most common reason for a high bill is heating and air conditioning.

Small appliances typically include microwaves, toasters, toaster ovens, food processors, blenders, mixers, slow cookers, air fryers, coffee makers, rice cookers, and any other appliance that can sit on your countertop. Major appliances include refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, cooktops, washers, and dryers. Some people may include HVAC equipment like condensers and air handlers in this category, too. Small appliances are more of a specialty, so there’s a good chance a typical appliance repair company won’t be able to service and repair small appliances.

Repairing an AC unit is usually more cost-effective than replacing it, but you should consider the age of your system. Most central AC units last around 15 years, and window units last for between eight and 10 years. If your central AC is more than 10 years old or your window AC is over six years old, you should consider replacing the AC unit rather than repairing it. The repair will fix your issue, but you’ll likely save money in the long run by replacing it rather than repairing it only to replace it a few years later.
