The air conditioner isn't cooling the room effectively: This could be due to a variety of problems, such as a dirty filter or low refrigerant levels.
There are strange noises coming from the unit: This could indicate that there is something loose inside the unit or that the compressor is starting to fail.
The air conditioner is blowing hot air: This could be due to a malfunctioning thermostat or a problem with the compressor.
The unit is leaking water: This could indicate that there is a problem with the drain line or that the evaporator coils are frozen.

When should my air conditioner be replaced?

When you properly clean your air conditioner and have it regularly inspected and maintained, you can expect up to 15 years of quality use. If your system is not properly maintained, it may fail prematurely. If your air con is over 10 years old, you should have it inspected at the first sign of any faults and our technicians will advise if replacement is the more economical solution.

If you find that your air con is routinely breaking down, it might make more sense to replace it than keep forking out money to fix it. Another sign that a replacement is a better option is when your power bills spike up sharply because of your AC use. If these bills are rising even though your AC is being used the same amount, it is no longer efficient and probably should be replaced.
Why does my air conditioner keep turning off by itself?

There are a few reasons why your air conditioner may be shutting off on its own. One possibility is that the unit is not receiving enough power. Check to make sure that the circuit breaker has not tripped and that the unit is plugged in securely. Another possibility is that the air filter is dirty and needs to be replaced. A clogged filter can cause the unit to overheat and shut off. Finally, the thermostat may be set too low, causing the unit to cycle off before the desired temperature is reached. Adjust the thermostat accordingly. Contact us if the problem persists.
How often do my air conditioner’s filters need to be replaced?
Most air conditioner filters should be replaced every one to three months. Check your owner's manual to see how often your particular model needs its filter changed. Some factors that can affect how often you need to replace your filters include:
- How often you use your air conditioner
- The number of people in the household
- The presence of pets
- The level of indoor air pollution
- The type of filter being used
