Local Climate Experts
For many homeowners, repairing your existing air conditioner can be a smart and cost-effective choice. If your unit is relatively new, well-maintained or only experiencing minor issues, a professional repair can restore performance, extend the lifespan of your system, and save you the expense of a full replacement.
Repairs are especially worthwhile when:
- The system is under 10 years old
- Problems are isolated (e.g. faulty capacitor, blocked filter, refrigerant leak, worn fan motor)
- The unit has been regularly serviced & is otherwise in good condition
- Choosing repair also means less waste, a smaller environmental footprint & minimal disruption to your home

Which Systems Benefit from Repairs & Cleaning
Most split-system, ducted and multi-head residential air conditioners respond well to regular repairs and maintenance. These systems often accumulate dust, mould and debris in filters and coils over time — issues that can reduce airflow, cause unpleasant odours and force your system to work harder.
Regular cleaning and timely repairs help your unit run more efficiently, cool faster and last longer. If your air conditioner is still cooling or heating but not performing as strongly as it used to, a thorough clean or minor repair is usually all that’s needed to bring it back to top condition.
What’s Involved in a Repair & Cleaning
A professional air conditioning service typically includes:
- Diagnostic testing: Checking system performance, airflow, temperature and refrigerant levels.
- Component inspection: Assessing electrical connections, fans, coils and filters for damage or wear.
- Deep cleaning: Removing dirt, mould and build-up from indoor and outdoor units, coils and filters.
- Targeted repairs: Fixing or replacing faulty components such as capacitors, fans or sensors.
- System check and tune-up: Ensuring safe operation and optimal efficiency once repairs are complete.
This process not only improves your air quality and comfort but also lowers energy use and running costs — often making repair and cleaning the best first step before considering a full replacement.
What Our Customers Say
FAQ
How often should I service my air conditioner?
Most air conditioners should be serviced at least once a year, ideally before the start of summer. For homes in dusty or humid areas, or where the unit is used heavily year-round, a six-month service schedule is often recommended.
Why is my air conditioner not cooling properly?
If your air conditioner isn’t cooling as it should, several common issues could be to blame. Dirty filters are one of the main culprits — when airflow is restricted, the system has to work harder, resulting in weak cooling. Low refrigerant levels, blocked coils or a failing fan motor can also reduce performance. Sometimes, it’s not the system but the thermostat settings or incorrect sizing for the room.
What are the signs my air conditioner needs cleaning or repair?
Common warning signs that your air conditioner needs attention include weak airflow, unusual smells, water leaks or loud rattling noises. You might also notice your unit taking longer to reach the set temperature or cycling on and off more frequently. Scheduling a professional clean or inspection can restore performance and help prevent major faults.
