Systems in Sierra Montana are at a turning point
Sierra Montana homes were built 2003–2022 (mostly early to mid-2000s), making them 18 to 23 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.
Sierra Montana sits on the far west side of Surprise, and many of its homes are now reaching the 15-to-20-year mark when original systems start to wear out.
