How Often Should You Replace UPS System Batteries? 

UPS System Battery Replacement 

UPS system batteries typically last three to five years with normal use. The UPS should include a function for testing the batteries to ensure that they’re ready to provide backup power during an outage. If the batteries fail the test, they may need to be replaced. Network/server UPS systems allow hot-swap replacement of internal and external batteries.

Replacing Batteries versus Replacing the UPS 

Replacing the batteries will allow the UPS system to remain in service, causing little or no disruption to its operation. Replacing the entire UPS system is usually more disruptive and expensive, but it will provide fresh batteries, fresh components and a new warranty. Replacing the UPS may also upgrade the UPS with higher efficiency, new features and capabilities that may not have been available when the original UPS system was purchased. Consider both options, weigh the value of new features versus the increased cost and disruption of UPS replacement and make your decision from there.
