If your air conditioning in Cairns isn’t working properly, chances are you’re pretty hot and uncomfortable, not to mention frustrated and worried about getting it repaired.
That’s when it’s time to call Alphacool. We specialise in air conditioning and can install new air conditioners as soon as possible.
Wondering if it can be fixed instead of replaced?
Here are some signs that you need a new air conditioner.
Whether you are only getting a bit of air, the air isn’t cool enough, or you aren’t getting any air at all, these are all indications that it’s time for a new air conditioner.
This might be the biggest indication that your existing unit is at the end of its lifespan.
In some cases, lack of proper airflow could indicate a blockage in the ducts, but usually it means a replacement is necessary.
Your air conditioner isn’t supposed to make a lot of noise so if it suddenly begins to emit strange sounds, you have a problem.
You may hear squeaking, grinding, or clanking, all of which indicate that something is going on.
These noises can often occur when the air conditioner reaches the end of its lifespan and aren’t something you should ignore because chances are they’re telling you that you need a new air conditioner.
While most air conditioners produce some small amounts of moisture, too much is a problem.
If you see a build-up of moisture or your unit is leaking, you need to give us a call.
This could mean you have a refrigerant leak, which can cause the unit to malfunction, but also poses a health risk if it’s not taken care of right away.
You should never have any bad smells coming from your air conditioner.
If you do, there’s definitely a problem. A mould or mildew smell indicates that there’s too much moisture in the unit.
If you smell smoke or burning, you have a serious problem and need to have your air conditioner looked at right away.
If your energy bills have suddenly gone up dramatically, your air conditioner is probably working too hard to cool the air, which indicates that a replacement may be necessary.
While a new unit is an investment, it can save you money in the long run by using less energy and lowering the monthly costs of running the unit.
We are the experts in air conditioning in Cairns and we can identify whether your system can be repaired or needs replacing.
