One of the most common air conditioning problems we see is an air conditioner that is no longer producing cold air. There are a number of things that can cause an air conditioner to stop producing cool air ranging from minor fixes to major repairs. Below are 4 possible causes of an air conditioner not blowing cold air and how to fix them.
1) Check Thermostat Setting

The first thing to check when your air conditioner is not working as it should is the thermostat setting. If the thermostat is set to a temperature that is higher than room temperature it may not even turn on at all as it will detect that the room’s temperature is lower than the set temperature. It may seem obvious but it happens.

Reset the temperature on your thermostat and change it to a few degrees cooler than the room temperature. Note: It can take a few minutes before you feel any cool air coming out so don’t panic right away.

Top Tip: If your air conditioner is not turning on you may also want to check the batteries in the thermostat.
2) Check Air Filtration
Another potential cause of an air conditioner not blowing cool air is a filtration problem. If the air filter in your air conditioner is clogged it will restrict air flow and prevent cold air from circulating in your home. If you’re not already regularly checking and changing the filter in your air conditioner it is more than likely very clogged by now.

Luckily, this is a relatively easy fix. Simply check the air filter in your air conditioner to see if it is clogged with dust and other allergens. If it is, clean it down with warm soapy water […]

In the sunny state of Queensland, air conditioning is an essential in most homes to make it through the sweltering summer heat waves. But, when it comes to air conditioning, it can be tricky to work out who is responsible for repairs, upkeep, and ongoing maintenance.

Whether you’re a first time renter or a landlord looking at renting out your property, it’s important to make yourself aware of your rights and responsibilities. That’s why we’ve put together this simple guide to the obligations of tenants and landlords when it comes to air conditioning.
Who Is Responsible For Air Conditioning Repairs When Renting?

In a rental property, the landlord is responsible for ensuring that the air conditioner remains in good working order throughout the term of the lease. The exception to this is if the lease specifically states otherwise or if the tenant damaged the air conditioner directly through misuse or neglecting maintenance.

However, it is the tenant’s responsibility to inform the property manager or landlord of any malfunction or breakdown.

Top Tip: It is always best to report any issues with the air conditioner in writing to avoid any misunderstandings.

Once the tenant has informed the landlord of the issue, the landlord is required to take the appropriate steps to fix the air conditioner. If the issue is not fixed in a timely manner, the tenant is entitled to negotiate a decrease in rent until the repairs are completed.

However, if the air conditioner was damaged by the tenant, either through misuse or because it has not been maintained, the landlord is not obligated to pay for the repairs.

Commercial Air Conditioning Repairs
As a business owner, we know how important it is to ensure that your customers and employees are happy and comfortable, and in Brisbane’s hot climate, that generally means that you need a working air conditioner.

However, many air conditioner companies only work within the 9 to 5, Monday to Friday work week. This means that if your air conditioner breaks down on the weekend you’re left with no option but to wait until Monday morning which could cause you to lose precious customers.

Luckily, Advanced Climate Solutions offers 24/7 emergency air conditioning response services to ensure that your commercial air conditioner runs smoothly all year round.

There are many reasons why you may not be able to choose when your new air conditioner is installed, such as an unexpected breakdown or a new house build. However, when given the choice, it is best to install your air conditioner in autumn, as it is the quietest season in the air conditioning industry.

Although winter can still be a good time to install a new air conditioner, many air conditioners are reverse-cycle which means that they can both heat and cool. This means that air conditioning technicians may still be busy with call outs for repairs and breakdowns in the winter months.

Additionally, many homeowners looking to get ahead of the summer rush will have their air conditioners serviced or installed in spring, which can make it difficult to book a quality HVAC technician.

Conversely, the autumn months are the quietest when it comes to air conditioning services. Plus, many contractors will have stock left over from the summer rush, and possibly models from the previous year, that they will be looking to get off their hands at a discounted price.
The Benefits Of Installing An Air Conditioner In Autumn
Save Money
One of the key benefits of installing an air conditioner in autumn is saving money. As mentioned above, many air conditioning installers may have left over stock from the peak summer season that they will be willing to sell at a discounted price.

Since autumn is not a busy time in the air conditioning business, you are less likely to be competing for the contractor’s time. This means that you will be able to easily book the installation for when it suits you best, rather than having to work around the busy schedule of an air conditioning […]

The Benefits Of Air Conditioning In An Office
There are many benefits that come with installing an air conditioning system in your office including providing a comfortable work environment, improving worker productivity, boosting morale, and reducing office complaints.
Creating A Comfortable Work Environment
A quality air conditioning system can be used to control your office temperature all year round. This allows you to provide your employees with a comfortable environment to work in, whether it’s a scorching hot day or pouring down with rain.

Additionally, creating a comfortable work environment will improve the mood and morale of your employees, and reduce office complaints.
Improving Worker Productivity
Not only can air conditioning boost the morale of your workers, it has also been proven to boost productivity. In fact, a study conducted by Cornell University* found that when temperatures were lowered to 20 degrees celsius employees made 44% more mistakes than when room temperature was optimal at 25 degrees celsius.

This means that the money you spend to install your office air conditioner will quickly be made back in increased productivity, with the added bonus of happier and healthier employees.
