Air Conditioning Service: How Often Should You Schedule Repairs?

Air conditioning is a very important aspect of home comfort but they do require servicing at regular intervals — around once a year depending on the type of air con and how frequently it is used.
Regular service by an experienced technician ensures that your air conditioner will continue to work efficiently lowering your energy bills, especially during the summer months. It is also a good way to detect any faults with the unit before they turn into bigger problems that could result in costly repairs.
Your service technician will check the performance, tighten electrical connections, test the thermostat and make sure all the internal components are in good condition which will all help to extend the lifetime of your unit.

Preventative Maintenance Will Improve The Air Quality In Your Home

As part of professional service, the unit will also undergo a deep clean. This information is based on Split System Air Conditioning, but broadly applies to Ducted Systems too.

Regular cleaning removes dust and other pollutants from filters and louvres. If filters are not regularly cleaned, they can clog up and collect moisture. This could potentially develop into mould which can become airborne and trigger serious health effects.

Regular cleaning also helps improve efficiency and reduce running costs. As dust builds up in the filters, the unit has to work harder to move the air as well as cool or heat. It’s also worthwhile tidying the area around the outdoor unit by removing vegetation, obstructions and spiders. Choice created a guide on How To Clean Your Air Conditioner which offers useful advice but still recommends having your air conditioning system professionally serviced regularly.

A trained technician will have the skills and knowledge to clean internal components such as coils, fins and drainage, ensuring the longevity of your air conditioner.

Air Conditioning Repairs

Many Australians clean the filters every few months and call for a service every few years or when the system develops a fault.

If that’s the case, Smarter Air & Electrical offers air conditioning repairs with free over-the-phone advice and quick, affordable services. Once you have booked the repairs, we will happily come to inspect the unit and try to get it working that day. If it’s a serious issue that requires a replacement part, we can use our supplier connections to order the parts and create a clear quote to install them.

Most manufacturers offer a 5-year warranty. For further peace of mind, AC systems installed by Smarter Air & Electrical come with a 10-year workmanship guarantee.

Very professional and friendly people at the same time, so easy to deal with. They always come on promissed time and deliver all 100%. They run like ants, everyone knows what he's supposed to do and before you know it's ready to be turned on, when they start showing you how to control your new AC. Well done Smarter A&E, very happy with what you've accomplished. I strongly recommend this business to everyone.

Excellent!!! The customer service was outstanding. Alex went above and beyond to help me finding the product I wanted. They efficiently and in time replaced my old ducted aircon system. The installation team, Tom, Jacob, Levi and rest of the team were highly professional and polite and tidied up nicely after completing installation. Davis' initial site inspection was very informative. I highly recommend Smarter Air & Electrical.

Have had the team from Smarter Air and Electrical do an aircon system for our shop and it’s absolutely changed our life. We were dying from the heat before but the guys had it installed in no time and couldn’t have been any easier to deal with! From calling up and booking in to having the system installed was seamless and the super friendly team made the decision that much better! Will continue to use these guys and always recommend to anyone in the future needing any air conditioning and electrical work done!
