Do you also provide regular maintenace?

We understand the importance of keeping your air conditioning unit in good working order, so we offer a range of services to suit your needs. Our regular maintenance service includes a full inspection of your unit, along with cleaning and tuning of all components. We also replace any worn or damaged parts to ensure optimum performance. Please see our MAINTENANCE page for more information.

What are the signs that my air conditioner needs maintenance?

If your air conditioner is not working properly, it may need maintenace. Some signs that your air conditioner may need repairs include: the unit is not cooling the room properly, the unit is making strange noises, or there is water leaking from the unit. If your air conditioner needs repairs, it is important to have a qualified technician do the work. Attempting to repair an air conditioner yourself could void the warranty or cause further damage to the unit.

How often should I have my air conditioner be serviced?

Additionally, if your air conditioner is making strange noises or leaks, it is time to call a professional.

How much will it cost to have my air conditioner repaired?

The cost of repairing an air conditioner will depend on the problem. A simple repair, such as replacing a filter will be very different from say, if your air conditioner needs a new compressor.

Mould Servicing & Air Quality Control

The combination of bushland surroundings and modern, well-insulated homes in Frenchs Forest can create conditions where mould thrives inside air conditioning systems. Poor airflow, excess condensation, or a system that’s left unused for long periods can lead to hidden mould growth—and that’s not something you want circulating through your home.

At Climate Care Air Con, we offer specialised mould servicing to keep your system clean and your indoor air healthy.

Our mould servicing includes:

Inspection and disassembly of internal system components
Safe, hospital-grade anti-microbial treatments
Cleaning of coils, fans, and air ducts
Filter replacement
Advice on improving ventilation and preventing future build-up

We recommend scheduling a mould service if your system emits a musty odour, airflow has decreased, or if it’s been more than a year since your last professional clean. Breathe easy knowing your system is free of mould and circulating clean, fresh air.
