When to replace your air conditioner
Consider replacement when the AC is over 12 to 15 years old, uses the old R-22 refrigerant, needs a major repair like a compressor, or cannot keep up on hot days. Newer systems are much more efficient and quieter.
Replacing the outdoor unit alone often means a mismatched indoor coil, so ask about replacing both. See AC installation or AC repair.

Permits and licensing in Michigan
Heating and cooling equipment is mechanical work in Michigan. Installing or replacing equipment needs a mechanical permit, and the contractor needs a Michigan mechanical license with the right classification (for example HVAC equipment, refrigeration, hydronic heating, or fuel gas piping). A homeowner in a single-family home may pull a permit for their own work. Check the license on the LARA lookup. In Detroit, permits and inspections go through BSEED.
Verify any license on the LARA license lookup. Detroit permits go through BSEED. Read How We Vet.
How to compare quotes
- Ask whether the indoor coil will be replaced too.
- Ask about heat pump options and rebates.
- Confirm the permit is included.
