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.

All of the staff were amazing. From the two guys who came out to talk to us about our requirements to the team of guys who attended on the day of installation. They were very thorough, extremely neat and nothing was a problem. They cleaned up after themselves and made sure we understood exactly how the system worked before leaving. I would not hesitate to recommend Smarter Air & Electrical as professional, pleasant and hard working guys who know exactly what they are doing.

We did a lot of research regarding air conditioning providers before engaging Smarter Air and Electrical. From the initial phone call with the lovely Amanda, to the onsite consultation with Davis, through to installation by Tom and the team, the whole process has been seamless, with the entire team being friendly, professional and easy to work with. They left our house clean and tidy after a full day's work. We are very pleased with our ducted air conditioning solution, with a split system for downstairs. Bring on summer. 🌞

Team was efficient and there was consistent communication along the process. On-site visit was helpful in determining optimal location of external unit and location of internal return vent and controls. Team did a great job during installation. Would recommend service from Smarter Air for those considering air conditioning service and installation.
