Air Conditioning Repairs Sunshine Coast

If your air conditioner is old and hasn’t been well-maintained, it will likely cost you less to replace it than to organise repairs. Our friendly, experienced team at Arctic Air Conditioning & Refrigeration can advise you on the solution that’s best for you and your circumstances.

An unresponsive air conditioner could be caused by many issues, such as a gas leak or a malfunction. The first thing to try is resetting your circuit breaker, leaving it off for ten minutes. In the meantime, set your air conditioner to the right temperature and your fan velocity to high or constant. Turn the air conditioner back on and wait for five minutes – most units have a safety system in place that prevents them from starting until five minutes after it is first booted up. This normally guarantees a fix, but if your unit stalls again, give us a call. One of our team members will come out to inspect your unit and suggest the best solution.

When thinking about repair or replacement, we generally recommend considering age first. If your air-con unit is over 10 years old and having trouble, replacing it with a more energy-efficient model will improve performance and help you save money. Younger air conditioners might benefit from a simple clean-out if they’re dirty or clogged. Either way, one of our technicians will be on hand to offer you a range of options to help you make a decision.

We pride ourselves on the great reputation we’ve developed for quality installations, servicing and maintenance of air conditioning throughout the Sunshine Coast. If you’re having any issues with your air conditioner, notice any wear and tear, or are considering replacing an old unit, don’t delay in giving us a call. We’re passionate about delivering high-quality workmanship and doing all we can to keep our customers happy and cool.

If you’ve noticed a leak, you may need to contact our team at Arctic Air Conditioning & Refrigeration to take care of it for you. We’ll be on hand to give your AC a professional clean, flush its drainage system, and apply antibacterial treatments.

Your air conditioner shouldn’t be causing a smell. Unpleasant odours can be caused by a build-up of cigarette tar or dust, improper positioning of returning air, or animal infiltration inside the ducts of your system. If you’re really not sure where the smell is coming from, we recommend you contact a professional. Our friendly, reliable team is more than happy to come to your home and inspect your unit to get it operating as good as new.

Your air conditioner’s filter works to protect the indoor unit from dust and bacteria. If dust gets into your unit, it can attract bacteria and contaminate the air that’s being spread throughout your home. Dust and debris can also clog your air conditioner’s drain, leading to a leak or flood, isolated cold or hot spots, and poorer air quality. And that’s not to mention the impact on your finances! Washing your filter for five minutes, arranging annual servicing, and contacting us if you notice any problem needing repair can help you avoid these issues and complications.
