Can I install an air conditioner myself or do I need a professional?

Installing an air conditioner can be a difficult and complicated process. It is strongly recommended that you hire a professional to install your air conditioner. Attempting to install the unit yourself could void the warranty or cause further damage to the unit.

What is the average lifespan of an air conditioner?

Most air conditioners will last for about 15 years. However, if they are not properly maintained, it may only last for 10 years or less.

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?

You should have your air conditioner serviced at least once a year, preferably in the spring. This will help to ensure that it is working properly and can prevent problems in the future.

Can I contact Climate Care for repairs?

Some of the common repairs that we provide include fan motor or capacitor replacement, fan deck replacement, refrigerant leak repair, compressor replacement and print circuit board replacement . We also offer a wide range of other services such as preventative maintenance and air conditioning installation. Please see our REPAIRS page for more information

How do I know if my air conditioner needs repairs?

If your air conditioner is not working as efficiently as it used to, it may need repairs. You may also notice that your energy bills are increasing even though you haven’t changed your usage. 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.

Electrical system testing and safety checks
Refrigerant level and pressure testing
Drainage inspections and airflow optimisation

Due to bushland proximity and sealed building designs, Wheeler Heights homes are vulnerable to indoor humidity and poor ventilation—both of which contribute to mould growth inside air conditioning systems.

Our mould servicing includes:

Safe disassembly and internal system inspection
Anti-microbial treatment of coils, fans, and internal housing
Filter replacement
Airflow testing and deodorising
Expert advice on moisture management and ventilation

Mould can impact your health and the efficiency of your air conditioning system. If your system smells musty or the air feels damp, a professional clean can make all the difference.
