Why Sun City Homes Are in the Replacement Window
Sun City Lincoln Hills opened its first homes around 2000. Many residents are on their original AC systems. A 2000-vintage unit is now 26 years old. Most AC units last 15 to 20 years with good maintenance. Past that mark, parts get harder to find and repairs cost more each year. A new system resets the clock for another 20 years.
