Common summer Air conditioner installation problems

It’s not just the heat that can be debilitating in the summer months, but also the humidity, and some people value their air conditioner’s for their dehumidifying effects most of all. However, if your air conditioner was installed a number of years ago, its efficiency at cooling and dehumidifying may be impaired by over-use – with the average unit losing five per cent efficiency for each year of operation. If your air conditioner seems to be experiencing faults or is not achieving the temperature you desire, this may be a result of dust or debris blocking the fans, which will require removing and inspecting your condenser unit as well as arranging a service for your system.

What’s involved in an air conditioner installation service?

A typical Air conditioner installation should cover all the components of your system, including cleaning the condenser unit, oiling fan motors and checking the coolant levels and power inputs to ensure there are no faults. Your technician will also be able to advise whether you require replacement parts and accessories, such as belts. Having your air conditioner serviced could reduce your electricity bills too, by restoring units to their optimal efficiency.

Portable air conditioner installation

Portable air conditioners and window mounted units can be convenient and cost-effective alternatives to ducted air conditioners and other home cooling systems in smaller properties.

Features of portable air conditioners

Portable air conditionersPortable air conditioner systems don’t require permanent installation and offer convenience by cooling specific areas only when needed.

Various types of portable air conditioners exist, including evaporative coolers that function similarly to split systems.

These are suitable for cooling medium-sized rooms using the same evaporation principle found in traditional split air conditioners.

Smaller portable air conditioners are ideal for compact spaces and are energy efficient, often operating at less than 60 watts.


Other Types of Air Conditioners Installation

Portable air conditioner units offer convenience, but they’re less energy efficient than wall-mounted units in rooms over 20 square metres.

If you require frequent cooling, a split system or ducted unit could save more money over time.

Evaporative coolers, also called swamp coolers, offer an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional air conditioning.
