Air Conditioning Service and Repair Adelaide and South-East

Do I need to service my air conditioner?

Wall mounted split systems, ducted reverse cycle systems and evaporative cooling systems do need to be serviced. Much like a car, air conditioners require regular servicing and maintenance to ensure optimum efficiency and safe operation. Regular servicing extends the lifespan of your air conditioner and makes them more economical to run, so you can enjoy your investment for many years to come.

The benefits of regular air conditioner servicing include:

  • Extended lifespan and longevity of the unit
  • Improved efficiency
  • More economical to run
  • Reduced power bills
  • Avoidance of costly repairs or replacement in the future
  • Improved indoor air quality
  • Reduction of airborne allergens and bacteria
  • Quicker heating and cooling

Some of the disadvantages and outcomes of not servicing regularly include:

  • Unit not heating or cooling correctly or efficiently
  • Restricted air flow
  • Further faults within the unit
  • Parts needing to be replaced
  • Mould and bacteria build-up

When should I service my air conditioner?

A good time to arrange a service and maintenance check is when the seasons change, when you switch from heating to cooling or vice versa.

You should also call us immediately if you notice the following issues:

  • My air con is blowing out a musty smell
  • My controller is not working
  • One of our rooms is not blowing out any cold air
  • Our air con unit is making a loud noise
  • My controller has an error code on it
  • Air con starts up then shuts down with lights flashing
  • My air conditioner is not blowing out cool air
  • My air conditioner is not blowing out warm air
  • My air conditioner is not blowing out any air
  • My air conditioner will not turn on
  • My air conditioner turns on and then switches off 5 mins later

How often do I need to service my air conditioner?

Over time, dirt and dust accumulate in air filters and condensing coils leading to decreased efficiency and performance of your air conditioning system. We recommend servicing your air conditioner every 6 to 12 months, regardless of the model, type, or age of your system.
