Your HVAC system has a lifespan and, eventually, will need to be replaced. You can, of course, replace your HVAC system any time, however, there is a “best” time that you’ll find more beneficial. But, first let’s learn about the signs that your HVAC system needs to be replaced so you can better understand when the best time to replace it is.

Top Signs Your HVAC System Needs to Be Replaced
Age and condition are big influences on system replacement. If your HVAC system is nearing the end of its lifespan, which is typically 10 to 15 years, you should begin considering a replacement. Secondly, the general condition of your current HVAC system. If you find that your system is constantly requiring repairs and generally begins to have many problems with functionality, such as poor air quality, hot or cold spots, and overall poor performance, start to entertain the thought of upgrading your system. 

So, What’s the Best Time To Replace My HVAC System?
Peak heating and cooling season are extremely busy times for HVAC contractors. Cooling season is between April to early September, generally getting extremely busy during hot temperatures. Meanwhile, heating season begins in October and lasts until early March, picking up speed after the first snowfall. So, the best time to replace your HVAC system is during those windows of the off season. Why? Well, as the chaos slows down, HVAC contractors have more free time. In addition, during these times you may find more “end of the season” specials and discounts. Scheduling an HVAC system replacement in the Greater Toronto Area during the off seasons will benefit your wallet and will be an overall more flexible process due to the availability of contractors.
