How long does a Goodman air conditioner last?

Accepted Answer

The typical lifespan for an air conditioner in a home is 10 to 15 years. These numbers can vary greatly depending on how well your home is insulated, and where you live.

Question 6

How long does a Goodman Heat Pump last?

Accepted Answer

A heat pump is used year-round, so its lifespan is typically less than an air conditioner. Most people get around ten years with a heat pump.

If your home has a second-stage gas backup heat source, this lifespan number may creep up a bit as the heat pump will not run in the cold winter months.
