In detail
Aircon Work in the Original Trust New Town
This suburb is the original 1950s Housing Trust new town, and the housing shows it: single-storey detached and semi-detached homes in solid brick and later brick-veneer, low density, with plenty of long-term residents alongside rental stock. We work with both, and the price is on paper before anyone lifts a tool.
Get it sorted
Air Conditioning Services Booked Most Here
The Trust-era housing shapes what we get called to, so every job starts with what your cottage actually needs:
Split System Installs
One or two split systems cover a cottage where the lounge and bedrooms sit close together. Brick walls carry the indoor unit solidly, and we measure the rooms before recommending a size.
Ducted Aircon Options
The standard Trust plans leave workable ceiling space, so ducted air conditioning is on the table for renovations and whole-home coverage. We confirm access and switchboard capacity first.
Repairs and Replacements
From repairs on units that have run for years without a service, through to honest replacement advice when parts have dried up. We test before we recommend anything.
Cleaning and Servicing
Rental stock rarely gets a cleaning visit until something stops working, which is why we push yearly servicing. Landlords get the same straight answers as owner-occupiers.
Common problems
Common Aircon Faults in Trust Cottages
Older units in unrenovated Trust homes produce a familiar set of symptoms, and most are fixable in a single visit:
Warm Air
The unit runs but the air never cools, usually a choked filter, a dirty coil or a low refrigerant charge. All three are common in the older splits still running here, and all three get worse on 40-degree afternoons.
Water Dripping Indoors
A blocked condensate line makes an indoor unit drip down the wall, and brick veneer shows it quickly. Switch the system off at the wall and keep people clear until a licensed tech arrives.
Dead Units
A dead unit usually comes down to power, a control board or a failed capacitor. We carry the parts that fail most often, so the first visit often finishes the job.
Stale Smells and Noise
A musty smell points to a dirty filter or coil, while grinding or buzzing can mean electrical trouble. Neither fixes itself, and both are cheaper caught early.

Credentials
Licensed Aircon Work, Insured and Compliant
Full ARC Licence
Every job is carried out under a full ARC refrigeration and air conditioning licence, ARC Licence L162586, RAC01 - Full Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Licence. That covers installation, service, decommissioning and refrigerant handling.
Insured on Every Job
We are fully licensed and insured, and the paperwork is available if your landlord or insurer wants it.
Refrigerant Handled Properly
Refrigerant handling is licensed work under ARC rules, never a do-it-yourself job. A leak located and recharged early usually costs far less than a compressor lost to one.
Gas Fittings Checked
Reticulated gas was rolled into the Trust estates in the late 1950s and 1960s, and original-era gas points and fittings still sit behind appliances in unrenovated homes. We flag them when they matter.
Running costs
Cooling Running Costs Through a Dry Summer
Clean Filters Cost Less
A clean, correctly charged system holds set temperature and cycles off. A dirty one runs all afternoon, and the power bill shows it.
Zoning Trims the Hours
Zoning on a ducted setup cools only the rooms in use, which cuts the hours the compressor works through a heatwave.
Evaporative Running Costs
Evaporative cooling is common in Adelaide because dry summers are what it is built for, and it runs cheaply on water and power with windows or vents open. It is a cooling-only system, so winter warmth comes from reverse cycle or ducted gas heating.
Heatwave Load on Units
Northern Adelaide summers run hot and dry, with consecutive days over 40 in a heatwave. A serviced unit copes with that load far better than a neglected one.

Aircon FAQs
Do you work on the original Housing Trust cottages?
Yes, most of our work here is in single-storey Trust-built brick and brick-veneer cottages, and we know their ceiling layouts and wall types, so the quote reflects what we actually find on site.
Can a split system warm an older cottage in winter?
Yes, a reverse-cycle split warms and cools from the one wall unit, which suits Adelaide's genuinely cold winters in solid brick homes, and we size it to the rooms you use most.
How often should air conditioning be cleaned?
Most homes do well with a professional clean every twelve months, ideally in spring, because dry northern summers push fine dust into filters and coils well before the first heatwave lands.
Do you charge by the hour?
No, we work on Fixed Upfront Pricing, which means a fixed quote before any work starts, so there are no hourly rates and no bill shock when the job runs longer than planned.
