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.

10 star review to the team at SmarterAir & Electrical have the WOW factor. Brilliant from start to finish. Having a Property Manager background and high standards I know quality service and you were fantastic! The Neo Panasonic unit ducted system is so quiet it’s a dream unit. Don’t even know it is on! Sensors in each room and can remotely turn the system off via the MyPlace app. Specialists in what you do and don’t outsource the annual service shows your genuine accountability “Thank you so much” to all involved, Alex, Davis, Amanda & Chris. Today the installation & electrical team, professional and friendly, Tom, Jake, Eden, Levi, Nav and Will were simply brilliant a Very big Thank you for making my day! They even vacuumed my house and cleaned up & used drop sheets when installing they really looked after my property. I will be adding lights and the garage door to the future to the MyPlace app and also will be upgrading my residential smoke alarms with them. I am a client for life and will recommend you to everyone. Nothing is too much trouble. I chose well and grateful for all of the answers to my questions. It takes a lot to WoW me these days, but you did, thank you for all your hard work.

I had smart air & electrical for air conditioning service install a new unit and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From scheduling the appointment to the completion of the job, everything was seamless. The technician arrived promptly, was courteous, and thoroughly explained the work that needed to be done. They also provided helpful tips for maintaining the unit in the future and cleaned the house after finishing the job.The pricing was fair, and the service was top-notch. I highly recommend them for all your air conditioning needs!

Had my Panasonic ducted unit installed in December. They did not try and upsell me a unit that was too big for my house size ,Other companies recommended 1 -2 (16kw-18kw)sizes bigger. Recommended a 12.5kw which would be sufficient for my home size or could get away with the larger 14kw(summers only getting hotter). Ended up going with a Panasonic 14kw Delux unit with MyAir. On the day all the materials were delivered 30 mins (6.30am) before the guys turned up. Started at 7 am and left by 2 pm, They check with me the location of each room where the ducts were going as I have fans as well. House was vacuumed and marks on the wall cleaned. The electrician stayed back till about 3 ish to finish up, test each zone and run through the MyAir tablet. Easy to deal with, quick responses with emails and calls and happy to work with me as I built a stand so my unit was of the ground. Also went up in the ceiling to finish off some work and the ducting is all tidy. Highly recommend!
