Split System Aircon Repairs & Service Rockingham
Split System servicing, when to service your split system.
We get asked all the time, when do I need to service my split system air conditioner? Well if your split system hasn’t had a good service for 2 years or more, we would always recommend a deep clean. A deep clean involves antibacterial spray and pressure cleaning of the indoor unit coils. If the filters havent been cleaned for a while you will most likely find that the indoor unit coils are filthy and will most likely require cleaning.
Below is what is involved with both the minor and major services.
Basically, you want to give your split system a minor service every 12 months. We recommend major servicing every 2 years (depending on usage and environment) but our technicians can advise you on the day if he believes your split system will require a deeper more thorough cleaning.

Evap air con servicing, when to service your evaporative AC?
Evaporative aircons work by pumping water over PADS, The FAN inside the unit pulls the air through the PADS cooling it. This water is stored in a tank in the unit. Some older evaporative’s don’t have drain valves to drain the unit when turned off so water can sit stagnant all through winter… yuck!. This is why some evaporative systems have a foul smell when turned on for the first time in Summer. We recommend an evaporative service summer startup service before the heat hits as we have evap air con technicians near you that may become very busy very fast.
