Why keep your ducted air conditioning system clean?
Keeping your ducted air conditioning system clean provides a range of benefits for both your home and workplace. Clean, healthy air is essential for everyone, but if your AC isn’t properly maintained, the air you breathe may be compromised. Beyond improving air quality, a well-maintained system operates more efficiently, uses less energy, and is less likely to experience unexpected breakdowns. A clean ducted air conditioning system ensures you’re taking the right steps to keep it running smoothly and efficiently. For more information about our ducted AC cleaning services, reach out to our team today. Benefits include:
Clean air - regular cleaning ensures that the air moving around your home or business has minimal dust, dust mites, mould, and pollutants.
System efficiency - more power is needed to draw air through dirty, clogged vents and filters. Keeping the unit clean means operating costs are kept at a minimum.
Reduce wear and tear and maintenance - aircons working under strain tend to wear out parts faster and require more maintenance.
Minimise allergens travelling through the ducted system - if someone in your home suffers from asthma or respiratory problems, regularly cleaning away the build-up of allergens in the system is essential to reducing health issues.
Less dusting around your home - clean filters collect more dust, reducing the amount that settles around your home.
Extend the life of your investment - regular cleaning helps to ensure your ducted air conditioner doesn’t experience premature issues.
Maintain the quiet operation of the unit - one of the great benefits of ducted air conditioning is the super quiet operation. Dirty ducted systems tend to make more noise than clean units as they have to work harder to move the air.

Signs your ducted air conditioner needs cleaning:
It's so easy to overlook the hard work your air conditioning system does and the demands we put on it, particularly during the sweltering heat of summer. Like any appliance, they gather dirt and grime, and when left for any length of time, this can impact your system's performance. A dirty air conditioner can cause reduced efficiency, unhealthy indoor air quality and an increase in energy bills. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning, replacing filters, removing debris, and arranging professional inspections, will help your system run efficiently and last longer. Common signs your air conditioner may need a clean include:
Poor Airflow: Insufficient airflow from the vents is a common sign of a dirty or clogged air filter. Reduced airflow can also lead to uneven cooling in different parts of your home.
Reduced Cooling Efficiency: If you notice that your air conditioner is not cooling your space as effectively as it used to, it may be a sign that the coils or filters are dirty and restricting airflow.
Unpleasant Odours: Foul or musty odours can indicate the presence of mould or bacteria in the system. Cleaning the unit and replacing filters can help eliminate these odours.
Visible Dirt and Dust: If you notice a buildup of dust, dirt, or debris on the vents, around the indoor unit, or on the cooling coils, it's a clear sign that your air conditioner needs cleaning.
Strange Noises: Unusual sounds like rattling, hissing, or banging can indicate various issues, including loose components or debris in the system. Cleaning the unit and checking for any loose parts can resolve these problems.
Allergies or Respiratory Issues: If you or your family members experience an increase in allergy symptoms or respiratory issues when the AC is running, it could be a sign of mould or dust circulating in the air. Cleaning the unit and replacing filters can improve indoor air quality.
Water Leaks: Moisture or water leaks around the indoor unit can be a sign of a clogged condensate drain. This can happen when dust and debris accumulate, hindering the drainage process.
Visible Mould or Mildew: If you see visible mould or mildew on any part of the air conditioner, including the coils, vents, or ductwork, it's crucial to clean and disinfect the affected areas to prevent further growth.
Increased Energy Bills: A dirty air conditioner has to work harder to cool your space, leading to increased energy consumption. If you see a sudden spike in your energy bills without a corresponding change in usage, it might be time to clean your AC unit.
