Older heating and cooling systems often lose efficiency over time, forcing them to work harder to maintain indoor comfort—especially during North Carolina’s hot summers and cooler winter months.
Many homes across Durham and surrounding Wake County communities rely on HVAC systems that are 10 to 15 years old or more. As components wear down, systems may struggle to maintain consistent temperatures, cycle more frequently, and consume more energy than necessary. These issues can result in higher energy bills while still leaving homeowners with uneven comfort throughout the home.
Tower Heating, Air & Plumbing notes that common signs an aging HVAC system may be impacting energy efficiency include:
-
Rising energy bills without changes in usage habits
-
Uneven temperatures from room to room
-
Systems that run longer or cycle on and off frequently
-
Increased need for repairs or service calls
-
Difficulty maintaining comfort during peak weather conditions
In many cases, routine maintenance or targeted repairs can help restore efficiency and improve performance. However, when systems reach the end of their lifespan, replacement with a newer, energy-efficient model may offer long-term savings, improved comfort, and greater reliability. Professional evaluations can help homeowners determine whether repair or replacement is the most cost-effective solution.
