Why split systems need servicing

A split system pulls room air across a wet, cold coil for months at a time. Dust, pollen, cooking residue and pet hair collect on the filter and the coil, mould grows in the drain pan, and the fan blades pick up a coating that cuts airflow and makes noise. Outside, the coil clogs with dust, grass and leaves. Gradually the unit works harder for less, and one day it drips down the wall or starts to smell.

An annual or two-yearly service by our own technicians resets that, keeps the running costs where they should be and catches the small faults before they become repairs.

What a service includes

  • Indoor unit. Filters cleaned or replaced, coil cleaned, fan cleaned, louvres and casing cleaned.
  • Drain. Condensate drain cleared and flow checked, drain pan cleaned.
  • Outdoor unit. Coil cleaned, fan checked, clearances checked, mounts checked.
  • Refrigerant and pipework. Operating pressures checked, insulation on the pipework checked.
  • Electrical. Connections checked and tightened, isolator checked.
  • Operation. Run in cooling and heating, temperatures checked, controller and timer functions verified, any fault history read.
  • Report. A written note of anything that will need attention, and a quote before any part is fitted.

Brands

We service all major split system brands across the Macedon Ranges: Mitsubishi Electric, ActronAir, Rinnai, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, LG, Samsung and others. If the service turns up a fault, it becomes a repair with the price agreed first.

Pairing services

Many customers book the split systems with the evaporative cooler or the gas ducted heater on the same visit. One call-out, every system checked.

    A text when your local technician is heading to you.

  4. Diagnosed properly

    One of our own in-house technicians finds the actual fault, not the first symptom.

  5. Fixed on the spot where practical

    We carry a broad range of common parts and aim to repair the fault there and then where practical.

Questions we get asked

How often should a split system be serviced?

A professional service every one to two years, with the filters cleaned by you every couple of months during heavy use. Units in dusty locations, near cooking, or run all year benefit from annual servicing.

Why does my split system smell?

Usually mould or bacteria on a dirty indoor coil or in a blocked drain, made worse by a unit that is switched off straight after cooling while the coil is still wet. A service cleans the coil, fan and drain.

Why is my split system dripping water inside?

A blocked or poorly sloped condensate drain, or a frozen coil from low refrigerant or a filthy filter. Both are found and fixed in a service or repair visit.

Do you service brands you did not install?

Yes. We service all major split system brands regardless of who installed them.

Is a service cheaper than a repair?

Usually, and it prevents a lot of them. Blocked drains, dirty coils and loose connections are found in a service before they become a call-out.
