Repair vs. replacement in Las Vegas
If your system is older, frequently breaking down, or needs a major component, replacement may be the smarter long-term option. If the issue is isolated and the system is in good overall condition, repair is often the right call.
- Repair is likely best if the system is under 10 years old and restores full performance.
- Replacement may be smarter if the repair is costly and the system is near end of life.
Quick decision guide: If a repair exceeds 50% of the cost of a new system and your unit is 12+ years old, replacement is usually the best long-term value in Las Vegas.
