Questions
Your Aircon Questions on Pricing and Quotes
Price is the first thing most people want to know, so here is exactly how quoting works on every job we take.
Do you quote before any work starts?
Yes. Fixed Upfront Pricing means you get a fixed quote before any work starts, with no hourly rates and no bill shock, so the figure you approve is the figure you pay.
Are there discounts for pensioners or new customers?
There are. New customers get $50 off first service, and there is a 10% pensioner discount. Mention which one applies to you when you call and we will put it on the quote.
Can I pay off a bigger job?
Yes, larger jobs can go on Humm interest-free finance. We will talk through the repayment options when we quote, so a full installation does not have to be paid in one hit.
Questions
Availability, Emergencies and Aircon Callouts
Breakdowns do not keep business hours, and neither do we. Here is how urgent work is handled.
Do you come out after hours?
We do. The team has 24/7 emergency availability, so a dead aircon on a scorching February night or a failed heater in July can be dealt with the same day.
How quickly can you respond to an urgent fault?
Urgent issues get a Within-the-Hour Response, where availability allows. Call (08) 8246 6290 and we will tell you honestly when someone can be at your door.
Which suburbs do you cover?
Salisbury North is home turf, and we work the neighbours on the same run: Salisbury, Salisbury Downs, Salisbury Plain, Salisbury Heights and Paralowie.
Questions
Licensing and Air Conditioning Compliance
Refrigerant work is licensed work, so it is worth knowing who is legally allowed to touch your system.
Are you licensed for refrigerant work?
We are, under ARC Licence L162586, an RAC01 Full Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Licence. It covers installation, servicing, decommissioning and refrigerant handling.
What if a repair fails because of the workmanship?
Our Lifetime Labour Warranty covers it. If a fault occurs due to workmanship, the team returns and fixes it at no cost.
Questions
Cooling and Heating Systems Explained
Adelaide's dry summers and genuinely cold winters mean most households want both, and the right answer depends on the house.
Can one system heat and cool the house?
A reverse-cycle split or ducted system does both, chilling rooms through the dry summer and warming them through winter. See split system air conditioning or ducted air conditioning for how each suits the mid-century maisonettes in this suburb.
Does evaporative cooling work in this climate?
Yes, because evaporation works hardest in dry heat, which is exactly what Adelaide summers are. Evaporative cooling is cooling only, so households wanting winter warmth pair it with ducted gas heating or go reverse cycle.
How often should an aircon be serviced?
Once a year suits most refrigerated systems. Evaporative units want a pre-summer service covering pads, the water feed and bleed-off, and homes under established trees often need more. Our cleaning page explains what a service involves.
