Heating and Air Conditioning questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible for basic cleaning. Professional services handle advanced maintenance like recharging the refrigerant.

A frozen coil can cause permanent damage to your HVAC system and lead to costly repairs if not fixed. It can cause the unit to overheat and also cause the compressor to fail. It’s vital to turn the unit off if the coil is frozen and address the issue as soon as possible.

It is possible to add air conditioning to an older home, but it can be very expensive to do so. Expect to pay anywhere from $6,000 to $17,000 or more for the ductwork and AC unit. You’ll also have to hack into the home’s walls and ceilings to add ductwork, which can impact the aesthetics of an old home.

Evaporator coils last between 10 and 15 years before they need to be replaced—as long as you stay up-to-date with routine maintenance. This is roughly the same life span as most AC units. So, if you have an older air conditioner and the evaporator coil goes out, it might be more cost-effective to replace the whole unit rather than just the coil.

After a while, dust, dirt, and other debris accumulates on an AC unit's coils and filters, making it less efficient and spreading allergens and other air pollutants throughout your home. Cleaning your AC unit will keep it running efficiently, minimizing future breakdowns and improving your indoor air quality.
