Central Air Conditioners. Central air conditioners typically last from 10 to 15 years. The lifespan of a central cooling unit may be reduced if its capacity is not properly matched to the cooling load of the home. Oversized air conditioners âshort-cycle,â turning on and off rapidly, inflicting excessive wear and tear on the compressor.
Just because the air conditioner itself will last 20 years, this doesn't mean that all the parts will last this long. Evaporation coils, scroll compressors, and air handlers can go out much earlier. As long as this is caught in time, these parts can be replaced without having to replace the entire unit.
