Heating & cooling services · SA

Air conditioning & heating services in SA, done properly.

Adelaide summers are dry and fierce, with runs of days over 40 degrees, and winter nights are cold enough to keep a heater busy. Our licensed technicians handle air conditioning service, repairs and installation across Adelaide and [the Adelaide Hills]: split systems, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning, evaporative air conditioning and gas ducted heating. Every service covers the whole system, with the readings written down, for a flat fee agreed before we start, on any brand.

What every service covers

Split system service · SA

What a split system air conditioner service in SA actually covers.

Every reverse cycle split system we service in SA goes through the same 12-point check, indoor and outdoor, for one flat fee. An air conditioning service in Adelaide has two things to deal with: fine dust that packs into filters and coils over a dry summer, and the long run times that come with 40-degree days. If a check fails, we stop, show you, and quote the repair before any extra work. Ducted reverse cycle, evaporative air conditioning and gas heater services each follow their own checklist, and every gas heater gets a carbon monoxide test.

Before any tools come out

We ask, run and watch first. How a system behaves tells us where to look once it is opened up.

Your run-down first

Odd noises, smells, drips, error codes, the room that stays warm. Nobody knows the system's habits better than you.

Run both modes

Cooling, then heating, on high fan. We note airflow, sound and smell so we can measure the improvement afterwards.

Switch off and cover up

Isolator off and tagged for safety. Drop sheets under the unit, shoe covers on before we step inside.

Before photos taken

Filters, coil face and outdoor unit, so you have a record of what the service started with.

Indoors: the head unit

Where fine dust settles after a dry Adelaide summer, and where most smells and drips begin.

Filters out, washed, checked

Washed clean and inspected for tears and warping. A filter that has lost its shape lets dust straight onto the coil.

Indoor coil cleaned

Coil cleaner worked into the fins and rinsed away. A dust-caked coil is the main reason a system runs longer and cools less.

Fan barrel cleaned

The fan behind the louvres. Build-up on its blades cuts airflow and throws dusty, stale air into the room.

Drain tray and line flushed

Then tested with water. Dust and slime block the drain, and a blocked drain is why a unit drips down the wall.

Outdoors: the condenser and testing

The half most services skip. In SA it faces dusty north winds, 40-degree days and cold winter mornings.

Condenser coil washed

Dust, leaves and cobwebs cleared and the coil washed through. A blocked coil overheats and trips out on the hottest afternoon.

Fan, mounts and wiring checked

Fan blades, brackets, vibration pads and pipe insulation inspected. Electrical terminals checked and tightened.

Pressures and temperatures

Gauges connected and the air temperature measured going in and coming out. That tells us how well it is really cooling and heating.

Report and walkthrough

Readings, photos and any recommendations explained before we pack up. You approve any extra work first.

When to book in SA

When to book a heating or air conditioning service in SA.

Service before the season, not in the middle of it. South Australia gets both extremes: Adelaide summers bring runs of 40-degree days on hot northerly winds, and winter nights are cold enough to keep the heater on for months. So the right time depends on what you run. Book a reverse cycle air conditioning service once a year, or twice if it heats the house too. An evaporative air conditioner needs its service before summer, and a gas heater service is due at least every two years, before winter.

Now booking across SA: pre-summer services, September to Novemberpre-winter services, March to May.

You rely on it for heating

Book between March and May. A gas ducted heater or reverse cycle system that sat idle all summer shows its faults on the first cold night, when gas heating repairs across Adelaide are booked out. A gas heater service includes a carbon monoxide test.

You rely on it for cooling

Book between September and November, before the first run of 40-degree days. That covers a reverse cycle service or an evaporative air conditioning service, where the pads, pump and water system are cleaned and checked before start-up.

Hay fever, dust or pets

Service twice a year, once before each season. Adelaide's spring pollen and dusty north winds load filters and evaporative pads quickly. Clean filters and a clean coil mean cleaner air in the room.

Which areas of SA do you service?

We service homes and businesses across Adelaide and its surrounds: the CBD and inner suburbs, the eastern suburbs, the western suburbs and beaches, the northern and north-eastern suburbs, and the southern suburbs down to Aldinga and McLaren Vale. Beyond the metropolitan area we cover Gawler and the Barossa, and the Adelaide Hills and Mount Barker. Use the town checker on this page, or ask when you book and we’ll confirm.

What's included in an air conditioning service in SA?

Every split system service follows the same 12-step checklist:

wash the filters and clean dust from the indoor coil and fan barrel
flush the drain tray and line, then test them with water
wash the outdoor condenser coil
check the fan, mounts and wiring
measure pressures and air temperatures in cooling and heating

You get a written report with the readings and photos. If a check fails, we show you and quote the repair before any extra work.

How much does an air conditioning service cost in SA?

Servicing is a fixed flat fee: $259 for new customers and $249 for returning customers, applied automatically. The price is the same for any brand of air conditioner. If we find something that needs more work, you get a clear quote first and nothing goes ahead without your approval.

How often should I service my air conditioner in SA?

At least once a year. Adelaide’s dry summers and dusty north winds load filters and coils quickly, and most homes rely on the same reverse cycle system for heating through a cold winter. If yours works hard in both seasons, service it twice a year: before summer and before winter. Homes with pets, hay fever or a lot of dust also benefit from a service every six months.

When is the best time to book a heating or air conditioning service in SA?

Before the season, not during it. Book a pre-summer air conditioning service between September and November, before the first run of 40-degree days. Book a heater service between March and May, before the first cold nights. Bookings fill quickly once a heatwave or cold snap arrives, and the wait for air conditioning repairs in Adelaide grows with them.

Do you service evaporative air conditioners in SA?

Yes. Evaporative air conditioning is common across Adelaide, and it needs a service before each summer. An evaporative air conditioner service covers the pads, the pump and water distribution, the fan and belt, and the water tank, which is drained and cleaned. We then run the system and check the airflow at the vents. Worn pads are quoted before we replace them.

Do you service ducted heating and cooling in SA?

Yes. We service ducted reverse cycle air conditioning of all sizes. A ducted service includes:

cleaning the return-air filter
checking the indoor fan coil and duct connections
testing the zone motors and controller
cleaning and checking the outdoor unit

That keeps every room heating and cooling evenly. Gas ducted heating has its own service, covered in the next question.

Do you service gas heaters and test for carbon monoxide?

Yes. Many Adelaide homes still heat with gas ducted heating or a gas wall furnace. Carbon monoxide has no smell or colour, and a poorly maintained gas heater can leak it into your home. Our licensed gasfitters carry out your gas heater service and test for carbon monoxide with calibrated equipment. The test is standard with every gas heater service, and you get the results in writing.

What's the difference between a service and a repair?

A service is routine maintenance that keeps a working system clean, efficient and reliable. A repair is for a fault: no heating or cooling, leaks, noise or error codes. For air conditioning repairs and gas heating repairs we find the cause on site, quote the fix and repair most problems in one visit. Regular servicing is the best way to avoid them.
