Questions We Hear Every Week
Our team has pulled together the questions that come up on the phone most, from cost through to which system suits a 1950s Trust house. If yours is not here, ring (08) 8246 6281 and ask us directly.
Aircon Pricing and Payment
Money is the first question on nearly every call, and it should be. Here is how the pricing works before anyone touches a tool.
What does a call-out cost?
We quote a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no hourly rates and no bill shock at the end of the job, and you approve the figure first.
Do you offer finance for a bigger job?
Yes, interest-free Humm finance is available for larger jobs, which spreads the cost of a full ducted install or replacement without adding interest.
Are there discounts available?
New customers get $50 off first service, and pensioners receive a 10% pensioner discount, both applied to the fixed quote before work begins.
Emergency Air Conditioning Availability
A dead system on a February afternoon cannot wait a week, and we treat it that way.
Can you come out urgently in a heatwave?
We hold 24/7 emergency availability, and urgent issues get a Within-the-Hour Response where availability allows, which matters most through consecutive 40-degree days.
Licensing, Insurance and Our Guarantee
Refrigerant work is licensed for a reason, so it is fair to ask who is actually holding the licence.
Are you licensed for refrigerant work?
Yes, we work under ARC Licence L162586, a RAC01 Full Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Licence covering installation, servicing, decommissioning and refrigerant handling.
Are you insured?
We are fully licensed and insured, family-owned, and we back every job with a Lifetime Labour Warranty on workmanship.
What if the fault comes back after you leave?
If a fault occurs due to workmanship, we return and fix it at no cost under our Lifetime Labour Warranty, with no conditions attached.
Questions
Split System, Ducted and Evaporative Questions
Most houses here are single-storey brick or brick-veneer Trust builds from the late 1950s and 1960s, and that shapes what fits.
Will a split system suit my Trust-era brick home?
Yes, most of the single-storey brick and brick-veneer houses built here in the 1950s and 1960s take wall-split head units with the correct fixings.
Can older homes here take ducted?
Usually, because these single-storey Trust houses have roof spaces deep enough for duct runs, and we check the ceiling, switchboard and access before quoting.
Can one unit handle both summer and winter?
Not on evaporative, which cools only, so households wanting one system for both seasons are pointed at reverse cycle or a ducted gas pairing.
How often should a system be serviced?
Once a year before summer suits most split and ducted units, while evaporative systems need pads, water feeds and bleed-off checked each season.

We are on the ground across the Trust streets and the newer infill most weeks, and each neighbouring suburb has its own page with the detail.
