Melbourne’s weather can be unpredictable, with sudden shifts from sunny skies to chilly winds. A reliable air conditioner is crucial for comfort, but improper installation can cause many problems, including poor efficiency, reduced comfort, and higher energy bills.
At Greentastic, we specialize in ensuring your air conditioner is installed correctly for optimal performance. Here are some common air conditioner installation mistakes and tips on how to avoid them:
Mistake #1: Incorrect Unit Size
An air conditioner that is too small won’t cool your home efficiently, leading to higher energy costs and discomfort. Conversely, an oversized unit will cycle on and off too frequently, causing wear and tear and uneven cooling.
How to Avoid It: Our skilled technicians perform a detailed assessment of your home, considering factors such as size, insulation, and sun exposure. This allows us to recommend the right-sized unit for your needs.
Mistake #2: Poor Placement
The placement of your air conditioner significantly affects its performance. Installing it in direct sunlight can reduce its cooling ability, and inadequate airflow around the unit can cause overheating and inefficiency.
How to Avoid It: We carefully plan the location of your air conditioner, taking into account sunlight, airflow, and distance from walls and furniture, ensuring optimal efficiency and performance.
Mistake #3: Ignoring Insulation
Without proper insulation, cool air can escape, forcing your air conditioner to work harder and raising your energy bills.
How to Avoid It: We recommend checking and, if necessary, improving your home’s insulation. Proper insulation helps maintain the cool air inside, ensuring your air conditioner works efficiently.
Mistake #4: Faulty Ductwork (for ducted systems)
Leaky or poorly designed ductwork can severely impact your air conditioner’s efficiency. Air escaping through leaks means your system has to work harder, wasting energy and money.
How to Avoid It: For ducted systems, our technicians ensure that the ductwork is installed correctly, minimizing leaks and maximizing airflow. We use high-quality materials to ensure the best performance.
Mistake #5: DIY Installation
Installing an air conditioner involves complex electrical connections, refrigerant handling, and system settings. DIY installation can lead to safety hazards, system malfunctions, and voided warranties.
How to Avoid It: Our certified technicians are trained to install air conditioners safely and efficiently, ensuring your system operates reliably and is protected by warranty.
