FAQ

Repair or Replace? Use the $5,000 Rule

When your AC breaks down, the first question is always: Is it worth fixing? Here’s a simple formula HVAC professionals use to decide:

Multiply the repair cost by the unit’s age.

• Repair cost $900 × 10 years old = $9,000 → Replace
• Repair cost $500 × 5 years old = $2,500 → Repair

If the result is over $5,000, a new system is the smarter investment. Atlantis AC will give you an honest assessment up front so you can make the right decision for your budget.

Other factors to consider:

• Is your system 10–15+ years old?
• Has it needed multiple repairs in the past year?
• Are your electric bills climbing despite no change in usage?
• Does it use R-22 refrigerant (no longer manufactured)?

We’ll walk you through all of it — no pressure, no upselling.
