Compare Local QuotesWhat Drives Aircon Work Here
- Older established homes. High ceilings, solid walls and large windows. Retrofit work with core drilling and a planned pipe route rather than a quick back-to-back install.
- Heavy student accommodation. Converted houses and flats let by the room, where landlords are fitting multiple units at once and per-unit rates on a multi-unit visit matter.
- Dense oak canopy. Leaf fall blocks condenser coils and drain outlets every autumn, and it is behind a good share of the lost-capacity complaints the following summer.
- Wetter winters. Indoor coils stay damp longer, and mould in the blower wheel is a common cause of the musty smell people report in spring.
- Subdivided properties. Cottages, granny flats and converted outbuildings frequently share an electrical board that has no spare capacity for another dedicated circuit.
Response Times and After-Hours
Well covered by Southern Suburbs contractors. For multiple units in a let property, ask for the whole-property rate rather than booking them individually.
If water is running out of an indoor unit, switch it off at the isolator before anything else. The water damage almost always costs more than the repair does.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my aircon lose cooling every summer?
Frequently a condenser coil packed with oak leaf litter from autumn. It is a cleaning job rather than a repair, and it is worth doing before summer rather than during it.
What is the best setup for a student let with several rooms?
Separate splits per room, quoted together in one visit. The per-unit rate drops considerably on a multi-unit install, and independent units mean one failure does not affect the whole property.
Can a granny flat share the main house's electrical supply?
Only if the board has the spare capacity and a way available. Many Rondebosch properties do not, and a new circuit or a board upgrade is a legitimate line on the quote rather than an upsell.
Do you install the aircons yourselves?
No. This is a free quote service. LEADERR APPROVED local aircon installers and HVAC contractors do the work, quote you directly and carry the workmanship.
Do I need a dedicated electrical circuit for an aircon?
For anything from about 12000 BTU upward it is the norm, and in older stock the board frequently has no spare way, so a new circuit and isolator is a normal quoted item.
