Choosing the right size
A system that is too small will run flat out and still struggle on hot days. One that is too big costs more to buy and can leave rooms feeling clammy. A good installer works out the right capacity from the room size, ceiling height, insulation, windows and which way the room faces.
Split systems
Wall mounted split systems are the most common choice for bedrooms and living areas in Mackay. Reverse cycle models can also heat on cooler winter nights.
Ducted systems
Ducted systems cool the whole home from one outdoor unit, with outlets in each room. They suit larger homes and are best planned with the installer before any renovation work.
What installation involves
- A site visit or photos so the installer can quote.
- Mounting the indoor and outdoor units and running the pipes, drain and cabling between them.
- Electrical connection by a licensed electrician.
- Testing and showing you how to use the system.
