AC systems in Bradenton run nearly year-round and die young — salt air corrodes outdoor coils, from Palma Sola waterfront homes to the growing subdivisions east of I-75. HVAC companies in Bradenton stay slammed from May through September; the owners who fare best are on maintenance plans that include priority scheduling when a system quits in a heat wave.

10–15 years is normal here — roughly half a northern lifespan, because of run hours and coastal corrosion.
A common rule: if the system is over 10 years old and the repair exceeds ~$1,500, replacement usually wins on efficiency and warranty. Get the math in writing either way.
Often an oversized system short-cycling, or duct leakage. A good tech measures static pressure and run times rather than just selling a bigger unit.
