Supply and Install a Fujitsu Split System Air Conditioner
Valley Air Conditioning Supplies and Installs Fujitsu 6.0kW Split System in Jesmond, NSW
Valley Air Conditioning recently completed a seamless split system replacement for a homeowner in Jesmond, New South Wales, who was experiencing ongoing issues with their ageing air conditioning unit. The existing system was no longer functioning efficiently, struggled to provide adequate cooling, and had reached the point where repair costs would outweigh the benefits of keeping it running. The homeowner made the smart decision to invest in a modern, energy-efficient replacement.
Our team was engaged to decommission and remove the existing split system and supply and install a Fujitsu ASTH22KNTA 6.0kW reverse cycle split system, providing reliable comfort and improved energy efficiency for the home.
Safe Decommissioning and Removal of the Existing System
The first step in the process was to safely decommission the existing split system air conditioner. Decommissioning involves more than simply removing the unit; it is essential to follow environmental safety protocols, especially when handling refrigerants.
Our qualified technicians carefully isolated the power supply and ensured the system was depressurised and the refrigerant was safely recovered in accordance with Australian standards. This is a crucial part of air conditioning removal, as releasing refrigerants into the atmosphere is both harmful to the environment and illegal.
Once the refrigerant was fully recovered and safely stored for appropriate disposal, we dismantled the indoor and outdoor components of the old split system and removed all associated pipework and brackets. We ensured that all old parts were disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner.
Selection of the New Fujitsu 6.0kW Split System
After consulting with the homeowner about their cooling and heating needs, we recommended the Fujitsu ASTH22KNTA 6.0kW reverse cycle split system. This model was the ideal choice for the space, offering powerful cooling and heating capacity while remaining energy-efficient and whisper-quiet in operation.
Fujitsu is well-known for producing high-quality, reliable air conditioners suited to the Australian climate. The ASTH22KNTA features inverter technology that allows the compressor to adjust its speed based on the cooling or heating demand, delivering more precise temperature control and greater energy savings.
This particular model also includes advanced air filtration, helping to improve indoor air quality by reducing airborne dust and allergens, an important benefit for many homeowners.
Professional Installation and Set-Up
Following the removal of the old system, we moved forward with the installation of the new Fujitsu split system. Our team carefully positioned the indoor unit to ensure optimal airflow throughout the room, taking into account the layout of the space and the homeowner’s preferences.
We installed the outdoor unit in a suitable location that provided adequate ventilation and minimal noise impact, securely mounting it to ensure stability and safe operation.
Our installation process included:
- Running new insulated refrigerant pipework.
- Installing a new electrical circuit with appropriate safety switches.
- Fitting and sealing the condensate drain to ensure effective moisture removal.
- Mounting and commissioning the indoor head unit.
We took care to install the system neatly, with minimal disruption to the home and ensuring the new pipework and cabling were concealed where possible.
Testing and Commissioning
Once the installation was complete, we conducted a full system test to ensure the Fujitsu ASTH22KNTA was operating correctly. We checked refrigerant pressures, monitored system performance, and ensured the airflow was balanced and reaching the entire space effectively.
We also calibrated the remote control and demonstrated its key features to the homeowner, including temperature control, fan speed adjustments, sleep mode, and energy-saving functions.
The system responded perfectly, delivering strong, even cooling with minimal noise, exactly what the homeowner needed for comfort during Newcastle’s hot summer days and cool winter nights.
Customer Education and Ongoing Support
At Valley Air Conditioning, we believe it’s essential to provide our customers with the knowledge they need to get the best performance out of their new air conditioner. We advised the homeowner on:
- How to regularly clean the system’s air filters.
- Recommended temperature settings for energy-efficient operation.
- The importance of annual professional servicing to maintain performance and extend the life of the system.
We also provided information on Fujitsu’s manufacturer warranty and reminded the homeowner that we’re available for any future servicing, support, or questions.
