ABOUT US

If your air conditioner is well-maintained and regularly serviced, you could expect it to last between 10 and 30 years. Its longevity will depend on various factors, including the climate where you live, the quality of the product installed, whether there’s enough space for your air conditioner to breathe, and how often it’s used.

When choosing an air conditioner for your home, it’s important to consider several factors. Having an idea of how much you want to spend will help you narrow down your choices and find something you’re able to afford. Understanding the particular types of air conditioner will also help you make your choice, as there are big differences between them. A portable air conditioner, for example, can be easily moved throughout your home and is better suited for a smaller home, while a central air conditioner cools using the duct system and is a good choice for a larger dwelling.

Regular maintenance of your air conditioner can help keep your unit operational, as the components and parts are prone to deterioration over time. If there are issues that aren’t addressed, your whole air conditioning system will break down. If you hear strange noises or vibrations coming from your unit, notice fluctuations in the current or temperature, notice dirt or other objects within the system, or smell a foul odour, we recommend contacting us for a repair. Air conditioners are made up of many complex parts, and we’ll take the time to conduct checks, inspections and repairs of each component of your air conditioning unit, from the thermostat to the refrigerant.

Ducted air conditioning has many benefits. It:

• Offers complete temperature control across your home from the air conditioner’s thermostat
• Can be programmed to turn on and off at particular times
• Doesn’t impact the aesthetic of your home
• Can be connected to the internet and be controlled by your phone
• Uses less power, helping you save on electricity

There are straightforward, practical things you can do to keep your energy costs down without restricting your air conditioner use:

• Make sure you check your thermostat and adjust it on cooler days or turn it off when not needed or when you’re leaving the house.
• Protect your windows with heat-control window film, or even just by closing the blinds.
• Spend more time cooling down in your pool, at the beach, or in the lower levels of your home.
• Regularly service your air conditioner with a professional engineer, like the team at Breeze Air Conditioning.
• Reduce your cooking time or use smaller appliances that save heat, such as pressure cookers or air fryers so your air conditioner won’t need to work as hard.
