Most split systems are built to last around 10 years, however top-quality & well-maintained air con split system units can last up to 20 years if serviced and maintained correctly. If you need to repair your air con after this time, it can be difficult to find parts from the original manufacturer. Luckily, here at TemperCool, we are licensed warranty agents who can handle all your in and out-of-warranty repairs, with parts for a wide range of air con units and systems, such as Daikin, Fujitsu, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHIAA) and Panasonic.
Most split system air conditioners have both heating and cooling functions. The inverter reverse cycle air conditioning system is one of the most efficient ways to heat or cool your home. It provides advanced temperature control with automatic self-adjusting features, which means you can enjoy a more comfortable living space with efficient AC performance but without worrying about high electricity bills!
Split system air conditioners are a cost-effective choice to purchase and have installed. Due to the fact that you are not purchasing an entire system of ductwork & vents, the costs can be much lower in comparison to ducted systems.
Split systems can also be cheaper to run when comparing it to ducted AC. The only limitation to a split system’s performance is its smaller area coverage, compared to the ducted system, that can cover multiple rooms.
Many people think that a higher capacity split system air conditioner installation will keep them more comfortable, however, this is not always the case. While a high-capacity air conditioning system will certainly cool your room, you may end up with more costly energy bills & may also experience inconsistent room temperatures.
When determining a suitable split system air conditioner, the first step is to measure the length & width of the room to be cooled or heated, then multiply the length by the width to get the total square metres of the room. You then multiply the total square metres by 0.16kW to find the required split system AC size (eg 9 x 0.16 = 1.44kW). TemperCool’s Split System Installation Gold Coast experts will factor in a range of other elements to work out the most suitable split system air con solution for your needs!
Split systems are very effective at cooling a living space or bedroom, although one unit does not typically work for multiple rooms. If you are looking for a system that can work in various areas all at once, a multi-head split system may be an ideal choice.
It is exactly the same as a standard split AC, but there are multiple internal units attached to one external condenser. Each air con unit inside can be used independently, meaning you can save energy by using them only as needed. The multi-head option is also a non-invasive alternative to ducted air conditioning.
Consider replacing your split system air conditioner if it starts experiencing frequent breakdowns or becomes less efficient, resulting in higher energy bills. Replacing your unit if it’s older than 15 years and requires expensive repairs is also recommended. Consulting with a professional technician like TemperCool Air Conditioning & Refrigeration can also help determine if a replacement is necessary. Get in touch today!
Yes, split systems need regular maintenance to operate efficiently and prolong their lifespan. Maintenance tasks include cleaning or replacing filters, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical connections, and cleaning the indoor and outdoor units.

The installation time for ducted air conditioning varies depending on the size and complexity of the system and the property’s construction. However, a typical installation takes around 2-3 days.

Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration is a technical and complicated piece of engineering technology and is quite different to standard electrical works. In fact, it’s an entirely different trade qualification. When choosing the right installer or service provider for you, ensure you are checking whether they are holding a Full Refrigerant Handling Licence (Refrigeration Mechanic) or if they hold a Restricted Refrigerant Handling Licence.
The level of licencing can greatly affect the quality of the installation as well as the long term service of your system should issues arise. If you are unsure, never be afraid to ask. The Australian Refrigeration Council has a licence check you can utilise to verify any contractor before entrusting them with your air-conditioning system. Here at TemperCool, we are fully insured and hold a current QBCC & ARC licence as well as Blue Cards.
Generally, 22-24 degrees is the recommended temperature to run your AC system for optimum efficiency.
The size of your air conditioning system should be based on the square footage of the space you want to cool. A professional HVAC technician can perform a load calculation to determine the right size for your space.
You can improve the energy efficiency of your air conditioning system by regularly maintaining it, keeping the air filter clean, using a programmable thermostat, and ensuring proper insulation in your home.
It’s not recommended to install an air conditioning system yourself unless you have experience and knowledge in HVAC installation. Improper installation can result in poor performance, energy inefficiency, and safety hazards.
If your air conditioning system is not cooling, check to make sure the thermostat is set to the right temperature, the air filter is clean, and the circuit breaker is not tripped. If these do not solve the problem, it’s best to call a professional HVAC technician, like TemperCool, to diagnose and fix the issue.
Commercial refrigeration refers to the use of refrigeration equipment in commercial settings, such as restaurants, grocery stores, and convenience stores, to store and preserve food and beverages at low temperatures.
Commercial refrigeration helps to keep food and beverages fresh for longer periods of time, which reduces waste and helps businesses save money. It also helps to prevent foodborne illness by keeping perishable items at safe temperatures.
There are several types of commercial refrigeration equipment that we can install, repair or service, including walk-in cool rooms and freezers, upright refrigerators and freezers & display fridges and cabinets.
The size of commercial refrigeration equipment you need will depend on the size of your business and the amount of food and beverages you need to store. A reputable commercial refrigeration supplier like TemperCool can help you determine the appropriate size for your business.
Regular maintenance is important for the proper functioning of your commercial refrigeration equipment. You should have it inspected and serviced at least once a year by a professional technician, and you should also clean it regularly to prevent the buildup of dirt and debris.

The warranty on commercial refrigeration equipment can vary depending on the manufacturer and the specific equipment. Our friendly team can provide information on the warranty for the equipment you are interested in purchasing.
Refrigeration units are quite durable but will have problems if left without servicing. Here are some issues you may encounter with your commercial refrigeration equipment.
