Frequently Asked Questions — HVAC Repair & Replacement in San Diego, CA
How much does HVAC repair or replacement cost?
Common HVAC repairs: refrigerant recharge $200-$600, capacitor $150-$400, blower motor $300-$700, compressor $1,500-$3,000. If repair cost x unit age exceeds $5,000, replace it. A new central AC system runs $3,000-$7,000 installed; full split systems average $6,000-$14,000.
Should I repair or replace my HVAC?
Multiply unit age by repair cost. Over 5000 favors replacement. Also replace if: over 15 years old, uses discontinued R-22 refrigerant, or rated below 13 SEER. New systems cut energy bills 20-40 percent vs aging equipment.
Why is my HVAC not heating or cooling?
Most common causes are a dirty air filter (replace every 1-3 months), refrigerant leak, frozen evaporator coil, failed capacitor, or a failing compressor. A clogged filter causes 60 percent of service calls. Check it before calling a tech.
How long does HVAC replacement take?
Replacing an existing system with matching ductwork takes one day. Installations requiring new ductwork or permit inspections take 2-3 days. Mini-split installs run 4-8 hours per zone.
Do I need a permit for HVAC work?
Replacement always requires a mechanical permit and city inspection. A licensed contractor pulls permits on your behalf. Unpermitted work voids your warranty and creates home-sale issues.
