Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

HVAC replacement doesn't always include ductwork replacement. It depends on the condition of the existing ductwork. You can reuse your ducts if they are in good shape, adequately sized, and meet current standards. However, if the ducts are damaged, poorly designed, or not appropriately sized for the new system, they may need to be replaced or upgraded. HVAC contractors will assess the condition of the ductwork during the replacement process and recommend any necessary modifications or replacements to ensure the new HVAC system operates efficiently and distributes air effectively throughout your home.

Trick question: There is no difference between an AC and a furnace blower motor. Whether you have central air and heat or just one of these, the same blower motor carries hot and cold air throughout the ductwork in your home. Certain systems may have separate blower motors for the AC and furnace, but each serves the same function.

To make the most out of your AC, consider implementing the following best practices: 

  • Choose the right size AC for your home to ensure your unit runs as efficiently as possible.

  • Choose a window with shade, as direct sunlight can cause your AC unit to overheat. 

  • Clean or replace the filter at least every two months. 

  • Inspect the AC’s fan and straighten it if necessary. 

  • Discontinue use immediately if you suspect a malfunction, as running the AC while broken can lead to significant issues. 

  • Turn off (or adjust the temperature) when you leave the house.

AC capacitors typically last for a long time and many last for the life of the air conditioning unit. You can expect to get about 20 years out of an AC capacitor. When an AC capacitor suffers an untimely death, it’s usually due to overheating, a power surge, or a short circuit. You can prevent these events from happening and extend the life of an AC capacitor by getting regular AC maintenance every year.

While most air conditioners can last between 10 and 20 years, they will only last this long (or longer) if properly taken care of. Routine maintenance and inspections help keep your AC unit running in tip-top shape but understanding what factors will decrease its lifespan will also help keep your unit running cool.

Some things that shorten your AC’s lifespan include:

  • Extreme outdoor conditions, like high humidity or extensive salt spray 

  • Improper installation

  • Extended run times, either by the unit being too small or the thermostat setting too low

  • Not performing required maintenance
