The best way to get the most out of your heating and cooling systems is to have them regularly serviced. This will maintain their cleanlieness and efficiency, as well as warn you if any problems start to arise (before it is too late!)
Energy Safe Victoria recommends that all gas heaters should be serviced and tested for carbon monoxide at least every two years. This needs to be done by a licensed plumber and gas fitter.
An air conditioner’s filters, coils, and fins require regular maintenance for the unit to function effectively and efficiently throughout its years of service. Neglecting necessary maintenance ensures a steady decline in air conditioning performance while energy use steadily increases (costing you more in the long run). It is also recommended these are serviced every 2 years as a minimum.
All units are serviced to the manufacturers instructions, making each service unique to the make and model. We have experience servicing all brands and models on the market – current and superseded models.
