As the temperature starts rising in West Palm Beach, it’s important to assess whether your current AC can handle the summer heat. At Mechanical Air Conditioning, we know just how brutal the Florida sun can be—and the last thing you want is to be caught off guard by an AC system that can’t keep up when you need it most. Replacing your air conditioner is a big decision, but recognizing the signs early can save you from discomfort, high energy bills, and costly emergency repairs. If you’re unsure where to start, here’s how to find the right AC for your home and needs.
When is it time to consider AC replacement?
