Systems in Arizona Traditions are at a turning point
Arizona Traditions homes were built 1997–2013, making them 13 to 29 years old. Air conditioners installed during those years used R-22 refrigerant until the switch to R-410A around 2010, so original and early replacement systems here often still contain R-22.
At this age, the most common calls we see are failed capacitors and contactors, refrigerant leaks, clogged drain lines and ductwork that has shifted or leaks in the attic. If your system is original, it is well past the typical Arizona lifespan, and a replacement plan is worth having before a summer breakdown forces the decision.
Arizona Traditions is a guard-gated 55+ golf community, so we coordinate gate access ahead of every visit.
