Supply and Install a Panasonic Ducted Air Conditioner

Valley Air Conditioning Installs New Panasonic 6.0kW Ducted Inverter System in Hexham, NSW
Upgrading Home Comfort with Smart Zoning and Efficient Climate Control

At a residential property in Hexham, NSW, Valley Air Conditioning recently completed a full replacement of an outdated air conditioning system. The project involved the decommissioning and removal of an old ducted air conditioner, followed by the supply and installation of a brand-new Panasonic 6.0kW ducted inverter air conditioning system, complete with a modern all-in-one touchscreen zone controller.

This upgrade provided the homeowners with a far more efficient, quiet, and user-friendly solution for heating and cooling their entire home, tailored to their daily routines, room usage, and energy-saving goals.

Step 1: Site Inspection and System Assessment

The project began with a comprehensive site inspection to assess the condition of the existing system. The home had an aging ducted air conditioner that had become unreliable and inefficient. It was struggling to cool the home evenly, frequently tripping on error codes, and no longer provided effective comfort in key areas of the house.

After discussing the homeowner’s concerns and expectations, the decision was made to fully decommission and replace the old unit with a modern, energy-efficient Panasonic system. Our goal was to improve airflow, temperature control, and user accessibility, all without altering the aesthetic of the home.

Step 2: Decommissioning and Safe Removal

Our licensed technicians began by safely decommissioning the existing air conditioning system. This involved:

• Recovering the remaining refrigerant in compliance with environmental regulations.
• Isolating and disconnecting the electrical circuits feeding the old unit.
• Dismantling and removing the indoor unit from the roof cavity.
• Disconnecting the old ductwork, vents, and sensors as required.
• Removing the outdoor condenser unit from its slab and clearing the surrounding area for the new system.

All materials were disposed of responsibly, with metal components recycled and refrigerant safely handled using certified recovery equipment.

Step 3: Installing the Panasonic 6.0kW Ducted Inverter System

With the old unit out of the way, we began the installation of the Panasonic 6.0kW inverter ducted air conditioner, an ideal solution for medium-sized homes requiring efficient whole-home climate control.

Key Features of the Panasonic System:

• 6.0kW Cooling/Heating Capacity: Perfect for delivering fast, consistent temperature control throughout the home.
• Inverter Technology: Adjusts compressor speed in real-time to maintain stable temperatures with minimal energy use.
• Quiet Operation: Both indoor and outdoor units are engineered to reduce noise levels, ideal for suburban living.
• Air Quality Management: Advanced filtration helps remove dust, pollen, and airborne allergens.

We installed the new indoor unit neatly in the ceiling cavity, using upgraded flex ducting to optimise airflow to each room. The outdoor condenser was placed on a new mounting slab in a well-ventilated position outside the home, connected via new insulated refrigerant lines and weather-sealed penetrations.

Step 4: All-in-One Touchscreen Zone Control

One of the highlights of this upgrade was the installation of an all-in-one touchscreen zone controller. This sleek, wall-mounted control panel replaced the outdated manual controls of the previous system and offered a range of modern features:

• Individual Room Zoning: The home was divided into several air conditioning zones (e.g., living areas, bedrooms, study), giving the homeowner control over which areas to heat or cool at any time.
• User-Friendly Interface: The touchscreen panel provides an intuitive layout, making it simple to change temperatures, adjust fan speeds, or switch zones on or off.
• Energy Efficiency: With zoning, the homeowner can reduce energy consumption by conditioning only the rooms in use.

During commissioning, we demonstrated how to use the controller and assisted in programming schedules for automatic operation—ideal for weekday mornings, evenings, and weekend settings.

Step 5: Final Testing and Handover

With the system fully installed, our team conducted a complete set of functional and safety tests:

• Ensured all zones responded correctly to the touchscreen commands.
• Verified temperature sensors and thermostat feedback in each zone.
• Checked duct pressure, fan performance, and refrigerant levels.
• Tested the system in both cooling and heating modes for seamless operation.

The installation was completed without any structural alterations, and the homeowner was impressed by the low-profile ceiling vents, the quiet operation, and the rapid cooling effect in the open-plan living area.

Comfort and Control—Every Room, Every Season

This installation in Hexham marked another successful project for Valley Air Conditioning, combining modern technology with expert workmanship to transform the home’s climate control. The Panasonic 6.0kW ducted inverter system, with its powerful performance, intelligent zoning, and user-friendly touchscreen, delivers year-round comfort while helping to reduce energy bills.
