Servicing
If you need your heat pump serviced, please contact us
Heat Pump Manufacturers recommend the units in your home have a full service carried out on an annual basis.
Air Conditioning systems are recommended to have a full service every three to six months; these units are typically used on a daily basis, however, the frequency depends on the operational environment, and how much dirt and dust may build up in the unit.
We are IQP registered so we can set up a contract to inspect, test and maintain your units and mechanical ventilation for your building warrant of fitness (12A).
For a Domestic unit it is suggested that the filters are cleaned approximately every three months. This can be easily done by the owner, or for those that are unable to for any reason, we do offer to clean the filters for you.
A full service on the indoor unit involves:
- Cleaning and disinfecting the unit to prevent bacteria build up on the coil and throughout the unit
- Cleaning filters and outer covers
- Visually inspect electrical terminals and components
- Check electrical terminals and components
- Check evaporator coils
- Check fan blades for mould
- Running the unit in both heating and cooling mode to check air temperatures
A full service on the outdoor unit includes:
- Check for obstructions in and around the unit, coil, drain and electronics to improve efficiency and performance
- Visually inspect electrical terminals for tightness

- Clean the outside of the casing
