Oldest AC Contest


Elite Heating & Cooling is looking for the Oldest Air Conditioner in our Area!
You could win a brand new, free AC system installed in your home! Elite Heating & Cooling is holding a contest to find the oldest air conditioner in our area. Any A/C unit more than 10 years old is a ripe candidate for replacement. The average life expectancy of a A/C unit is 12 years depending on the brand and maintenance performed over the life of the unit. As mechanical equipment ages, its performance degrades and becomes less efficient.
