A properly maintained (and installed) residential or commercial HVAC system will last around 10 to 15 years, depending on the manufacturer.
We implement a "summer break" now because before HVAC units were invented, people believed summers were too hot for children to learn.
Closing your air vents to lower your power bill is an urban myth. This actually raises your power bill due to a decrease in the system’s efficiency. Closing air vents puts more pressure on your system’s compressor, which can result in a break down. Simply put - don't close air vents in lesser utilized rooms of your house to save money on electricity.
Ceiling fans are good for cooling a room and keeping a higher temperature room comfortable. However, they don't help your AC unit. Turn the fans off in the unoccupied rooms of your home to decrease your utility bill!
