What ducted air conditioner brand is best for me?

It can be difficult to choose an air conditioning unit according to brand, especially when it all comes down to personal preference and special features that suit your needs. Obviously there are brands that are more popular than others, which gives a hint of their quality. However, just because one brand has a more widespread coverage and seems to be dominant in the market does not mean that brand will suit your needs.

In addition to this, it would be worth doing your own ducted air conditioning research to prepare for questions that an air conditioning specialist may ask you, such as:

1. Is your home high set or low set?
2. Have you had ducted air conditioning before?
3. What is your budget?
4. Do you require finance?
5. Do you have single or three phase power?
6. How old is your home?
7. How many people will be living there?
8. Are there any brands you are interested in?
9. Are there floor plans available? If so, have these on hand to send through to the company.

The following are some things to consider when selecting a branded air conditioning unit:

Services on warranty and support

The warranty a brand provides for their ducted air conditioning unit is the second thing to consider. It’s a good idea to check the coverage provided by the company. The warranty comparison along with the features provided allows you to decide which unit provides the best value. No matter which brand you choose, all the brands listed above are guaranteed to have high efficiency, low noise pollution and a 5 year manufacturer’s warranty. A good ducted air conditioning brand should also provide their services through numerous communication services, such as phone and email support.

Recommendations from contractors

Property builders and contractors have a better insight on which branded ducted air conditioning unit offers value for money. Contractors may also know which brand provides better customer service support and warranty coverage. You can ask for their advice if you are hiring them to renovate or construct your house.

A common problem with certain ducted air conditioning installers is they will often try to sell you brands under a dealer system. This means their company is affiliated with a certain brand supplier and will push to only sell you that brand to make maximum profit as the air conditioning company will get a discount from the supplier but still charge you the same price.

As a ducted air conditioning company, this is our main point of difference. We offer you a variety of high quality brands to suit your needs. We want you to have the perfect system. We don’t favour any particular brand, which benefits you. We can work to your budget and your lifestyle and recommend an air conditioning system that’s perfect for you.

Consider your needs wisely and don’t rush your decision.
