    When Are Old Window Air Conditioners Too Old to Be Worth Fixing Anymore?
    Hi, All!

    I have a number of old window air conditioners. Most of them are really old, like at least 30+ years old.

    Is there a point where they just aren't worth fixing anymore?

    Thanks!

    If they work,use them till they quit,then junk them. With the cost of parts and service calls most of the time, none /many are not worth spending good money on. The worse and biggest problem with window units is they get very dirty from the inside where you can`t get to except to take them apart and clean,, this helps many and all that is wrong when most folks think they are low on freon

    Hi, wmproop!

    Most of them are really old and basically don't function hardly at all. Also, many things seem to be wrong with them. Additionally, I never purchased any of them brand new and they were all very well used before I got them.

    Thanks for your advice!
