Time to install air conditioning? 5 points to consider.

The Sunshine Coast summer is in full swing, and with the most humid days still ahead of us, you may be ready to take the plunge and install a split system air conditioning unit. Here are 5 things to consider when you do:

  1. Not all split systems are created equally! Budget may be a factor in determining your machine selection or possibly, you prefer to stick with brand names you know and love. If the choice is overwhelming, Nicol can assist in choosing the best machine for your budget.
  2. How big is your space? Depending on room size, whether you are cooling multi-levels and if you have concerns about direct airflow from machine, some carefully considered thought needs to go into the placement of your machine.
  3. A split system requires a suitable outdoor space for the outdoor unit and drainage. If you have tricky terrain or perhaps aesthetic requirements for conduit and the unit placement, you will need to think about where the outdoor unit will be placed as part of the installation of a split system.
  4. Being green! Energy efficient ratings are available on all new air conditioning units. It is worth considering their energy efficiency for the environment- and for your hip pocket!
  5. Do you want a reverse cycle machine offering the chance to warm your home in winter too? Not all machines are capable of reverse cycle – and not all homes on the Sunshine Coast require a heater in winter! However, if you would like this feature, certain machines will not be suitable.

That sums up a short list of 5 things to consider when you decide to install an air-conditioning unit. The great news is, Nicol Watson Electrical will happily book in time to come and see your home and discuss your options before booking in the installation.
