Tips for hiring air conditioning specialists

Matt Mouritz · Director

Installing an air conditioning unit is no simple affair and being a major home appliance, is a significant investment. Every home and family’s conditioning needs vary based on a variety of factors such as the size of the house, the number of rooms and the family’s lifestyle. Things like when to make the purchase and which company to buy from can also be confusing for a first time buyer. There are numerous air conditioning and heating companies to choose from; a wrong choice could cost you in the long run, not to mention cause undue stress and frustration from the system breaking down due to poor installation or cheap parts. Proper installation with high quality parts will ensure longevity and efficiency of your system. Here are a few tips to consider when choosing an air conditioning specialist for your air conditioner purchase and installation.

Verify the credentials

Air conditioning companies, while similar can delivery vastly different quality. This could be from the lack of training, inexperienced workers, or a poor work ethic that focuses on cutting cost rather than customer needs. A good way to verify the credibility of the company you intend to contract services from is by checking their website for any accolades, qualifications or customer testimonials. These are things to boast about and a reputable company will be proud to display it on their site. Positive reviews and recommendations from previous customers are markers that a professional is trustworthy and will deliver quality work. Friends and family are also reliable sources of opinion when selecting a professional for the installation.

Attention to detail

A professional air conditioning company will be attentive to their customers requirements  by asking plenty of questions about their homes and needs, so they can offer appropriate recommendations pertaining to the situation. A company that is dedicated to their customers will want to forge a long term working relationship for future business opportunities. A significant red flag is if the contractor hired jumps straight to talking about money.

Offers different brands

Different manufacturers of air conditioners will have different specifications, quality standards and price points. Having access to a range of leading manufacturers will increase the chances of finding a system that is suited to every customers’ needs and budgets. An air conditioning professional will be able to offer an expert opinion of the pros and cons of each manufacturer to help you make an informed decision.

Choose the best next step for your home

Ducted reverse cycle

Ducted reverse cycle air conditioning heats and cools your whole home from one system, so you don’t need separate heating and cooling. Zone control sends air only to the rooms you’re using. We work out how many zones you need from the size and layout of your home and how you use it.

Ducted evaporative

A ducted evaporative system from Mouritz cools your home with fresh outside air, and its main advantage is low running costs. It’s cooling only, and works best with a few windows or doors open so the cooled air can flow through the house.

Split systems

A split system heats and cools a room or area, so it suits homes that don’t need whole-home air conditioning. Each one has an outdoor unit and an indoor wall-mounted unit. Split systems work for one room or several, and keep purchase, installation and running costs low.

Solar

A solar power system from Mouritz gives you more control over your energy use and helps reduce your power bills. We design and install panels around your home and energy needs, and battery storage lets you use stored power when you need it. Buying air conditioning too? We offer extra discounts when you buy both together.

Ducted gas heating

Ducted gas heating from Mouritz warms your whole home through ducts and vents, with zoning so you only heat the rooms you need, which can help reduce your energy bills. Installation can be more involved than other heating systems, but you get even, efficient warmth throughout the house.

Service & repairs

Regular servicing keeps your air conditioning running efficiently, which saves on energy costs. Our experienced service team responds promptly to breakdowns and maintenance issues. We recommend servicing most systems once a year.
