What Is The $5000 Rule For HVAC Repair Or Replacement?

The “$5,000 rule” is a common rule of thumb some homeowners cite, but we don’t rely on a blanket formula. We recommend an on-site diagnosis with upfront pricing to compare repair vs replacement. We weigh age, repair cost, reliability, warranty coverage, and efficiency. We serve Bloomington, Martinsville, and nearby. Installations include a 1-year labor warranty, and parts carry manufacturer warranties. Ask about our “Free service call on any paid repair” special (this month only).

Quick checks:

• Verify thermostat settings and batteries.
• Replace the air filter.
• Check the breaker and outdoor unit.
