Signs You Need New AC in Salt Lake City, UT

When temperatures rise in Salt Lake City, you need a reliable AC unit ready for anything. Problems with your system may not be clear-cut initially, but there are signs you can look out for to help determine if you need a new AC system. You may need a new system if: 

  • You Have an Older Unit: Older AC systems don’t run as smoothly as newer systems. These older units were designed with different efficiency standards in mind, and they can lose the ability to effectively cool your home the older they get. If your current AC unit is older than 15, it may be time to consider investing in a newer model.
  • You Need Frequent Repairs: Even newer units need the occasional repair to run correctly. However, frequent repairs add up over time, costing you a small fortune. Rather than pouring more money into a unit that will inevitably break again, consider putting that money towards a new system.
  • Your Unit is Losing Efficiency: An increase in your monthly energy bill with no changes could signal that your system is losing efficiency. If your AC unit’s performance declines while your bills increase, it may be time for an upgrade.

Benefits of Installing a New AC System

It may be time for a new AC unit if your money is slipping away on constant repairs. Upgrading now means long-term savings and a home that’s ready for Utah’s desert heat. When you invest in a new AC system, you get:

  • Improved Efficiency: Newer units are built for efficiency and performance. Your system will use less energy to cool your home, saving you money in the long run on your energy bills. Over time, your investment into a new unit will pay for itself in savings.
  • Improved Home Comfort: When your AC runs like a charm, your home stays cooler. You and your family will enjoy the summer days from the comfort of your home.
  • Eco-Friendly AC Solutions: Using less energy to cool your home makes your AC system safer for the environment. You reduce your carbon footprint while still enjoying a cooling breeze.

Call us today for a professional assessment and seamless AC installation if you’re experiencing any of these issues.

I would like to thank Jose S.
Jose came by to drop off a couple space heaters for us, but instead he fixed our furnace which only took him roughly 15 minutes to do.
It would’ve been a couple very cold days in the house. I appreciate all that he does.

Western Heating, Air & Plumbing was prompt, efficient, and polite. When Jose came to fix the issue with my heating, he was incredibly kind and helpful. He spoke to me directly and helped me understand the problem completely at my level of understanding (lower than his of course). I couldn’t have asked for better service or for a better technician! I will absolutely be using Western for all future needs.

I’ve been on Western Heating & Air’s maintenance plan for a while, and I really appreciate how thorough their whole-home inspections are. They check and service everything in my furnace room and give clear, reasonable recommendations whenever something might be out of code.

Dillon was outstanding. He was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything he saw and everything he was doing. I felt completely comfortable having him in my home, and his professionalism and clarity gave me total confidence in the work. I’ll definitely be requesting Dillon for future service appointments. Highly recommend!

Kyle and Chris came yesterday to upsize my furnace return filter. They even offered to reposition it higher in the vertical duct so I don’t have to kneel down on concrete which was much appreciated. I like that the techs had everything they needed on their truck and could handle everything including handling payment. They were friendly and they never left until the job was done and cleaned up the mechanical room as they left

Micheal and Glen came out to my house today to do a tune-up on my a/c and furnace units. I was so impressed by how professional and knowledgeable they are. My units are 21+ years old and have probably never been serviced. I was not prepared for good news regarding them but wanted to see if I could get a little more time before having to replace them. Michael walked through everything with me in great detail taking pictures and videos so I could see what he and Glen were seeing as well. They answered all my questions and were very honest about what they could and could not do to repair the units, which I appreciated greatly. I have never experienced this level of customer service with any other repair company in my life. I’m so impressed! I highly recommend Western for all your HVAC and plumbing needs. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks for everything Michael and Glen you guys are amazing!!!

We have been very pleased with all the service technicians who have serviced our equipment, and were similarly happy with Carson, who came this week to check our furnace. He was thorough in checking all the required items on the service checklist, and as I like to understand what the work, Carson explained what he was doing and why, and how the system functioned. We regretted that we couldn’t justify purchasing some of the equipment recommended to improve the furnace operation, but it was a five-star experience. Thank you, Western, for the excellent technicians you have sent us, and thank you Carson, for your pleasant and thorough assistance.

Air Conditioner Installation FAQs

How much does it cost to install a new AC unit?

It’s important to note that the exact cost of a new unit can vary depending on the size of your home, the unit you choose, and the current state of your home’s duct system. Give us a call to discuss pricing. 

What size of AC unit do I need for my home?

The right AC unit size for your home depends on factors like square footage, insulation, ceiling height, and even the number of windows. Choosing the wrong size can lead to inefficiency, higher energy bills, and uneven cooling.

To ensure the best fit for your home, we recommend having a comfort advisor from Western Heating, Air & Plumbing assess your space. Our experts will take precise measurements and help you select an AC unit that maximizes comfort and efficiency. Schedule a free estimate today!

How long does it take to install a new AC unit?

The timeframe for installing a new air conditioner depends on the size of your home and your current duct system. However, most installations can be completed in a day. Contact us if you have questions or concerns about how long the process will take.

How do I know which AC unit to get?

Part of our installation process involves assessing your home and helping you pick the right unit to meet your needs. We’ll work with you to determine what your home needs and which brand and style of unit will best meet those needs. 

Can I install an AC unit myself?

No. While it’s technically doable, the installation process is complex and difficult. With a ton of moving parts, one wrong move could cost you thousands of dollars in future repairs and damages. Our HVAC experts will install your AC unit correctly so you don’t have to worry.
