Signs Your Aircon Is Past Repair

Some faults are worth fixing. Others are money down the drain. We'll always tell you honestly which one you're facing, and these are the signs that replacement usually wins:

Constant breakdowns

If we've been out twice in a year, the next repair is rarely the last.

R22 or discontinued refrigerant

Gas that can't be legally topped up leaves no repair option.

A compressor on its way out

That's the expensive heart of the system, and a new unit often costs less than rebuilding it.

Running costs climbing

An old unit working through a 40-degree day burns power a modern system doesn't.

Uneven cooling room to room

Often a sign the original system was never sized properly in the first place.

If you're seeing one of these, book a diagnosis first through our air conditioning repairs page. If the unit still has life in it, we'll say so.

What Happens When We Replace Your System

A replacement is a full job, not a swap of the box on the wall. Here's what the work covers:

Removal and disposal

Of the old indoor and outdoor units, including recovery of refrigerant by a licensed operator.

Pipework and wiring checks

Because systems added to 1950s and 60s brick cottages years after the build can sit in awkward spots.

Correct sizing

Based on your rooms, your roof space and your block, not a guess from the street.

Full install and test run

Then we take the rubbish with us when we leave.

Split System or Ducted for the New Unit?

Most homes here are single-storey brick and brick-veneer Trust cottages, and that shapes the choice. A split system suits cooling one or two living areas, and it's the faster job. A ducted system suits households wanting the whole house covered.

Roof space and placement

The low-pitched roofs on these cottages generally have workable cavities for ducted runs. Homes around Haynes Street and Fairfield Road follow the same pattern: original Trust layouts, uniform blocks, room for an outdoor unit without crowding a fence.

We confirm the right fit during the onsite assessment, and evaporative cooling stays on the table too if you only want summer covered. It runs cheap in dry heat, though it won't heat the home.

What Drives the Cost of a New Air Conditioning System

Every quote differs, because every home differs. The main factors:

System type

Split systems cost less than ducted, and ducted gas heating adds its own considerations.

Brand and capacity

We install and service Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Fujitsu and ActronAir, across a range of sizes and star ratings.

Access

Older cavities and tight side paths take longer to work in, and that's priced honestly up front.

Switchboard condition

Some older homes need electrical work before a new system connects safely.

You get the full figure in writing before anyone lifts a tool. That's our Fixed Upfront Pricing promise: no hourly rates, no bill shock. Larger jobs can be spread with interest-free Humm finance.

How it works

Our Air Conditioning Replacement Process, Step by Step

  1. Step 1: Speak to us

    Call (08) 8246 6281 and describe the old system and the problem. We'll book an assessment at a time that suits you.

  2. Step 2: Onsite assessment

    We measure, inspect the existing pipework and talk through split versus ducted for your layout. No obligation at this point.

  3. Step 3: Fixed price quote

    You receive a written fixed quote covering the full job, old unit removal included. Approve it and we book the work.

  4. Step 4: Install and handover

    We remove the old system, fit the new one, test it through a full cycle and walk you through the controls before we go.

Why Choose Us for Your Aircon Replacement

Fixed price first

The quote lands before work starts, and it doesn't move. You approve the figure in writing, so there's nothing to argue about on the final invoice.

Licensed for refrigerant

Replacement involves recovering and handling refrigerant gas, which is regulated work. It runs under our RAC01 - Full Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Licence.

Warranty that lasts

Our Lifetime Labour Warranty applies: if a fault occurs due to workmanship, the team returns and fixes it at no cost. That's the promise, without conditions added.

Local and accountable

We're in Elizabeth Grove and the wider Playford area most weeks, and we'd rather tell you a repair will do than sell you a new unit you don't need.

Questions

Replacement FAQs

How do I know if my system needs replacing rather than repair?

Frequent breakdowns, a failing compressor or refrigerant that can no longer be sourced all point to replacement. We diagnose first and give you an honest answer either way.

Can older Trust cottages take a ducted system?

Many can, because the single-storey brick cottages here have roof cavities that suit ducted runs. We confirm access, condition and layout during the onsite assessment before quoting.

How long does a replacement take?

A split system replacement is usually done in a day. Ducted replacements run longer because of the roof work, and we give you the timeframe in the quote.

Do you take the old unit away?

Yes. Removal and disposal are part of the quoted job, including licensed recovery of the old refrigerant, so nothing is left sitting in your yard.

What does a replacement cost around Elizabeth Grove?

It depends on the system type, brand, capacity and access, so we quote each home individually. The written fixed price covers the whole job before we begin.
