COMMERCIAL AIR CONDITIONING MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR SERVICES

It’s vital that every system runs efficiently to save your business money. Maintaining the air conditioning units at your location must be a priority. Depending on the machines you have, the regularity of service appointment varies.

How Do I Know If My Air Conditioning Needs Servicing?

Air conditioning is vital for Australians, and keeping your AC unit running during the summer is essential if you want to stay cool. However, even if your machine is running it might still not be as efficient as it could be. There are a few key signs to indicate your air conditioning unit needs a service.

1. Weak Airflow


2. Unpleasant Smell

3. Grinding Noises

4. Leaking Units

Signs You May Need An A/C Repair

As well as a complete failure, there are several other signs that your A/C system could require a repair. If you notice any of the following, it's important to arrange an appointment with one of our technicians promptly. A/C issues rarely resolve themselves, and leaving the problem unchecked will usually make it worse (and more expensive to fix). Contact us for an appointment if you notice:


  •  Your system is making odd noises or has a strange smell.
  • It's taking longer for your rooms to reach the desired temperature than usual.
  • The A/C unit isn't keeping your rooms at the desired temperature. For example, your interior is still too warm during the hotter months, even with the A/C on full power.
  • The system only works intermittently.

Maintain your air-conditioning unit

There are some simple ways that you can maintain your air-conditioner throughout the year. This ensures that your A/C is running efficiently and not overloading the motor or racking up a huge electricity bill. These maintenance methods include:

Cleaning the filters: When dirt, dust and lint build up in your filter it will reduce the performance of your aircon. You may pay up to 15 per cent more in electricity costs and you will overwork your machine as well. If left too long, dirty filters can also cause mould and mildew to form, which is bad for your health. You should clean or replace these filters every month or two, depending on your usage.

Clean the outdoor unit: Whether you have a ducted aircon or a split system, the outside unit is exposed to the elements and can become clogged with dirt, leaves and other materials. Periodically inspect and clean these outdoor units for optimal performance.

While keeping your air-conditioner clean will help with its efficiency and performance, there are many small parts and components that can fail over time. That is why it is essential to have your A/C unit professionally inspected at least once per year.

The best time to enlist the services of our professional aircon maintenance team is at the end of winter when the weather starts to warm up and you require your aircon to stay cool. If you have a reverse cycle system or ducted system that you are also using for heating, it should be inspected at the end of summer as well.

BENEFITS OF HIRING A PROFESSIONAL FOR AIR CONDITIONING REPAIRS

There are several benefits to hiring a professional for air conditioning repairs, rather than attempting to fix the issue yourself or hiring an unqualified individual, including:


  • Repairs are done correctly: Air conditioning units are complex systems and attempting to fix them without proper knowledge and training can result in further damage or even dangerous situations. Professionals have the experience and expertise to properly diagnose and fix any issues with your A/C unit.
  • The necessary tools and equipment are used: A professional has access to the tools needed to repair your A/C unit properly. They will also have access to any necessary replacement parts, which may be difficult for the average person to obtain.
  • You save time and money in the long run: While it may seem more cost-effective to fix the issue yourself or hire an unqualified individual, improper repairs can lead to further damage that will be more expensive to fix in the future.
  •  Peace of mind: When you hire a professional, you can trust that the repairs have been completed to the highest standards and that your A/C unit is in good working order. This can give you the confidence that your unit will continue functioning properly for the foreseeable future.
  • Convenience: Don’t worry about trying to fix the repairs yourself. Professionals will handle all aspects of the repair process, from diagnosis to completion, allowing you to focus on other tasks or simply relax while the work is being done.
  • Warranty Protection: Many A/C units come with warranties that can be voided if the unit is repaired by someone other than a professional. Hiring a professional ensures that your warranty remains valid, protecting you from potential future repair costs
  • Compliance with local regulations: Some areas have specific regulations regarding A/C repair and installation. Hiring a professional ensures that any repairs are completed in compliance with these regulations, protecting you from potential fines or legal issues.
  • Expertise in a wide range of A/C units: Professionals are trained to work on various A/C units, including central air systems, window units, and split-level units. This means they can handle any issues that may arise, regardless of the type of A/C unit you have.
  • Time efficiency: Professionals are trained to accurately diagnose and fix issues with A/C units, so they can typically complete repairs faster than someone less experienced.
  • Customer service: Many professionals also offer customer service and support, which can be helpful if you have any questions or concerns about your A/C unit after the repair is completed.

 

Overall, the benefits of hiring a professional for air conditioning repairs far outweigh any potential cost savings that might come from attempting to repair the issue yourself or hiring an unqualified individual. Professionals have the knowledge, experience and tools to properly diagnose and fix any problems with your A/C unit, ensuring that the repairs are done correctly, and your air conditioning system continues to function properly long-term.
