There are many different kinds of air conditioners, and one of them is the perfect match for your cooling needs, some even offer heating for all year round comfort. Split systems and window wall air conditioners are a great choice for individual room control while portable air conditioners are a flexible cooling option that can be moved as needed.

What size split system do I need? That depends on whether it’s for a bedroom or lounge room, and how big the room is you’re trying to cool. Air conditioner capacity is measured in kilowatts (kW). The higher the value, the more heating or cooling the air conditioner is capable of. Buying the right size unit is very important as air conditioners that are too big will waste energy, while under-sized ones will not cool the room sufficiently. Not sure where to position a split system? The internal part should be positioned away from any heat-generating appliances such as ovens, up on the wall so cool air is distributed around the room, never above electrical fittings for safety reasons, and somewhere that suits the style of the room. Position the external part in the shade (if possible), away from dust and falling tree leaves, and in a spot that won’t be too noisy for you or the neighbours.

Window wall air conditioners efficiently cool a room by drawing in warm air, cooling it through the refrigeration process, and expelling the cooled air back into the space. Window wall air conditioners are a practical choice for those looking for a cost-effective and straightforward cooling option, especially in situations where a central air conditioning system may not be feasible. The compact design and easy installation make them a popular choice for cooling individual rooms with simplicity and effectiveness.

Portable air conditioners offer a flexible and convenient cooling solution for various spaces. These units are easily movable, allowing you to cool different rooms as needed. With a simple installation process that typically involves venting hot air through a window, portable air conditioners provide an effective way to regulate temperatures without the need for permanent installation.

Some portable air conditioners use evaporative cooling to lower the temperature in the room. A fan draws warm air through water-saturated pads, causing the water to evaporate and cool the air in the process. Evaporative coolers are particularly effective in dry climates, where the added moisture contributes to a more comfortable and cool indoor environment. Portable air conditioners are a great choice for renters or individuals looking for a versatile cooling option that can adapt to changing needs and living arrangements.

Reverse cycle air conditioners are a type of split system that efficiently extract cool air from the outside to cool the interior during warmer months, and they can reverse the process to heat the space in colder weather. Reverse cycle air conditioners are a great choice for climates that get hot and cold throughout the year and can be placed in any room with a suitable external wall.

Inverter system air conditioners are a type of split system that uses inverter technology to control the compressor motor's speed, adjusting to the cooling (or heating in some models) needs of the space more efficiently than traditional air conditioners with fixed-speed compressors. Inverter system air conditioners are a great choice for more precise temperature control and can be placed in any room with a suitable external wall.

Air purifiers use filters to remove particles like dust, allergens, bacteria and pollutants from the air, enhancing the overall air quality in your home. Some models will also heat or cool and are a great choice for people with allergies and those with pets.
