Residential Air Conditioning Servicing

Residential reverse cycle systems require servicing every 12 months. For some brands, the warranty can be voided if servicing is not carried out. Residential evaporative systems require a summer start-up service and a winter shutdown.

At Crispair we can offer preventative service and maintenance contracts for both residential and commercial applications. This allows optimum performance and can increase the lifespan of your system.

Commercial Air Conditioning Servicing

Commercial systems require much more regular servicing than residential applications and are usually carried out under maintenance contracts.

Air conditioning Wall Split Cleaning

Crispair offer a wall split cleaning service which is carried out by qualified refrigeration mechanics.

Traditionally, wall split servicing simply meant cleaning the filter, checking drains and gas levels. Over a period of time contaminants build up on the indoor coil and fan causing the unit to be inefficient and more importantly these contaminants are harmful and can cause illness to you and your family as you could be breathing in mildew, bacteria, mould and other contaminants. Not only will you be breathing healthy air but your system will be more efficient and therefore cheaper to run. Airflow is also improved as the barrel fan is generally clogged with contaminants.

The Process

Our cleaning service involves removing the front fascia of the indoor unit. A coil cleaner is sprayed onto the indoor coil, barrel fan, drip tray and other components.

A catch bag is placed around the indoor unit and a variable speed water pressure cleaner is sprayed over the parts removing the contaminants into the catch bag which then drains to a container.

The results can be seen by the colour of the water which is generally brown to black as the contaminants are released. Customers are generally shocked to see what contaminants have been removed during the cleaning process.

The indoor unit does not have to be removed from the wall. Drop sheets are placed below the work area and the catch bag makes the whole process clean and safe. Most wall splits will take approximately 45 minutes to clean from start to finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to service an air conditioner?
Costs will vary depending upon the type of air conditioner (evaporative, ducted reverse cycle or wall split) and access to the unit can also have a cost effect if long ladders or two technicians are required to attend. A call to our office will give you a firm price.
How often should you have your air conditioner serviced?
At a minimum, an annual service is recommended. If your air conditioning unit/s is used heavily, then additional servicing is ideal to keep it performing optimally. Air con units in a business or commercial environment should be serviced quarterly.
Do air conditioners need to be serviced?
Yes. In some cases, warranties can be voided if regular maintenance is not carried out. Today’s systems are complex and regular servicing will maintain efficiency, reliability and prolong the life of the system. It can also reduce running costs.
What is AC servicing?
Air conditioning servicing involves servicing the indoor and outdoor unit in a ducted system as well as checking all components such as zone motors and flexible duct integrity. Questions are also answered on how to minimise running costs. Evaporative systems need to be kept clean to ensure a healthy environment.
