The Air Conditioner Installation Process
At Valley Air Conditioning, we follow a meticulous process for every air conditioner installation to ensure both efficiency and long-term reliability.
- Consultation and Sizing
Our team assessed the living room’s size, insulation, and window placement. Based on heat load calculations, we confirmed that a 3.5kW split system would deliver optimal comfort without unnecessary energy use. - Safe Removal of Old Equipment
If a previous unit is installed, we safely decommission it, ensuring refrigerant gases are recovered and disposed of in compliance with environmental regulations. In this case, there was no existing system, which allowed us to focus on fresh installation. - Indoor Unit Placement
The Daikin Lite indoor unit was mounted high on the living room wall for maximum airflow distribution. Correct positioning ensures the unit doesn’t blow directly onto occupants while still circulating air effectively. - Outdoor Unit Installation
The outdoor condenser was placed in a well-ventilated location outside the home. We ensured it was secure, level, and positioned for easy future servicing. - Electrical and Refrigerant Connections
Our licensed technicians connected all electrical wiring and refrigerant piping, following Australian Standards for safety and compliance. We insulated and concealed pipework neatly for a professional finish. - Testing and Commissioning
Once installed, the system was thoroughly tested. We checked refrigerant pressures, airflow performance, and thermostat accuracy. The system was run in both heating and cooling modes to confirm peak operation.
Homeowner Handover
After commissioning, we provided the Shortland homeowners with a detailed demonstration of their new Daikin Lite system. This included:
- How to use the remote control effectively.
- Switching between heating, cooling, and fan modes.
- Adjusting temperature and fan speeds.
- Routine filter cleaning and maintenance tips.
- Energy-saving advice for long-term efficiency.
By the end of the demonstration, the family felt confident operating their new air conditioner and understood how to keep it running at its best.
