Air Conditioning Installations Sunshine Coast

You can install your own air conditioner, but it’s best to hire a professional. If you don’t have experience installing air conditioners, you could end up doing it wrong and causing damage to your home. A professional will also be able to properly dispose of your old air conditioner.

The length of time will also depend on the type and size of the unit you select. However, most installations can be completed in one to two days.

A multi-head split system is usually the better choice for businesses (as well as large homes) due to its ability to cool multiple rooms at different temperatures. Despite there being multiple indoor units, a multi-head split system runs from a single outdoor unit. As such, these systems are ideal if there is limited space for multiple outdoor units. Due to their design, these systems can help business owners reduce their electricity bills because they only have to cool the rooms in use.

Split system air conditioning should be cleaned every two weeks, but regular maintenance of your machinery by a professional (at least once a year) will ensure optimum working capacity for years to come.

To clean the unit itself, a simple wipe-down with a clean cloth is enough (just make sure you aren’t using any harsh chemicals). However, you’ll also need to clean the filters inside, which will require you to wash or vacuum them. If you choose the former, make sure the filter is completely dry before it’s reinstalled.

Regular cleaning of your system will help to reduce health risks to your family or co-workers as it prevents dust and allergens from accumulating and contaminating the air you’re breathing in.

Ducted air conditioning is one of the most effective systems for cooling the home. It will evenly distribute cool air throughout the house, allowing for all of your family members to live in a comfortable environment.

It circulates cold air through a series of ducts installed in your ceiling and roof cavity, meaning the system is out of your line of sight and subtly placed throughout the house. This is a great option if you don’t want to compromise on style and aesthetics to keep cool.

Ducted air-conditioners are also incredibly energy efficient, which will help you to save money on your energy bills. What’s more, there are no exposed elements, flames or fan blades and the system is completely out of reach, making ducted A/Cs a safe choice for homeowners with young children or pets.

If you opt for split-system air conditioning, then yes, you can change the temperature in different rooms. Both split and multi-head air conditioning systems allow you to set the temperature of each room accordingly, which is ideal if different members of your family have their own preferences. This can also save you energy as you don’t need to cool rooms you aren’t using.

However, this option isn’t possible with ducted air conditioning, so you need to think carefully about your requirements and the potential costs involved if you use your A/C a lot. If the system is running for the majority of the day and it’s cooling all rooms in your home, your energy bills are likely to be very expensive.
