According to the Department of Climate Change, heating and cooling typically accounts for 20% to 50% of energy used in Australian homes, so you always want to maximise your energy savings.
If your Mitsubishi Electric system has suddenly broken down or no longer operates as it should, you might be wondering how to choose the best service provider, but there’s no need to stress.
This article will guide you to the benefits of a professional service (not your neighbour or family member who thinks they’re experienced!), Mitsubishi Electric heating and cooling systems for your comfort, and how to choose a professional service that works for you.
When it comes to time to service your air conditioner, always go with a licensed professional who knows the ins and outs of Mitsubishi Electric systems. A licensed HVAC professional will have the skills, experience, and equipment necessary to keep your system in working order. In addition, they will be able to perform diagnostic checks to identify any technical or operational issues and then provide recommendations for any repairs that may be needed.
Professional assistance is particularly important for ducted systems because of their complex nature and the various safety risks involved.
If you have a split system or ducted electric reverse cycle heating and cooling, it is also recommended that you clean your unit as instructed by its manufacturer, in this case, Mitsubishi Electric.
Another reason to call a professional service is that they know the planning process. For example, ducted electric heating and cooling requires sound knowledge of the groundwork for the installation process. An experienced team can conduct an in-depth consultation of your ceiling space, support beams, and existing electrical wiring, which will ultimately lead to a better experience for you.
Why should you clean your system regularly? If your filter is dirty and clogged with debris, air won’t be able to pass through the filter. The less the fan will move, the more likely your system will run into fault mode or cause it to run at a reduced capacity.
Clean your filter every 2 to 4 weeks with regular use. However, if it has been a year or more since your Mitsubishi system was installed, it’s ideal for a professional to look over it.
Indoor unit: dust appears on the ceiling vents or louvres, the air con isn’t cooling in hot weather, not blowing enough air, producing a whistling noise, or an odour might be present.
Outdoor unit: It isn’t working as well as it used to in hot weather and defrosts more frequently in cold weather. What happens during a service?
If you’re hoping to upgrade your old system, you always want easy-to-clean features. For example, Mitsubishi Electric includes a dual barrier coating designed to reduce dust and greasy dirt from collecting in the unit, offering long-lasting protection to the heat exchanger fan and air ducts.
Still not convinced about calling up a professional contractor? Have a read of why regular maintenance is crucial for your Daikin air conditioning system, not just for Mitsubishi systems.
If you need reverse-cycle air conditioning repairs or are having problems with energy efficiency, how do you know which heating and cooling provider is best for your home or office building?
Whether you’re dealing with low refrigerant options, a blocked filter, a system that isn’t heating or cooling your spaces, a faulty part such as the fan motor or compressor, or no power, you want to deliver as much information as possible to your provider of choice, but you need to do your research on their offerings.
After all, you don’t want to pay a fortune for an unnecessary system! If your system is past its due date for a service, but you’re unsure, here are some clear signs that your heater needs immediate repair!
What are the licence and insurance providers for Melbourne HVAC contractors, and are these credentials legitimate? Experience matters, and you want to be protected when things go wrong. When your air conditioner needs service or repairs, you want to know that your provider of choice is qualified to do the job. Although asking a family member for a quick fix is tempting, they don’t solve the problem as a professional would.
Before contacting a provider, make sure to have the model number of your current system and maintenance history, as this helps contractors understand your Mitsubishi Electric system. Companies should always be shortlisted based on their experience, track record, and reputation.
Let’s look at the licence types that HVAC professionals need:
Find an accredited provider on the Essential Services Commission website. You may be able to access discounts under The Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) Program!
Is your provider insured, such as with public liability insurance? A reliable heating and cooling service provider will protect customers in the case of an unintended error.
What do HVAC professionals need to consider when repairing, installing, or servicing air conditioning units? There are many hazards!
For example, HVAC contractors want to protect their tools and equipment, which covers repairs and replacement costs. A WorkCover Certificate will also give customers cover for property damage and other unexpected events.
If you’re hoping to buy new air conditioning systems or need a repair, the last thing you want to know is that there’s no warranty! Aust Climate offers warranty repairs, such as routine maintenance and repairs, on your Mitsubishi Electric unit.
Mitsubishi Electric’s air conditioning warranty covers the system constituted by both the indoor and outdoor unit against manufacturing defects for the warranty period from the date the owner purchases the original system.
This warranty also covers the cost of replacement parts, and Mitsubishi Australia’s products come with a guarantee in addition to the warranty, so you are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure.
Whether you need a quick fix for your system or a complete replacement, you should always discuss your options with a professional heating and cooling contractor. Let’s look at some key points you can discuss!
