Supply and Install New Daikin Air Conditioner
Climate Air Solutions Upgrades Air Conditioning in Mirani Home
Climate Air Solutions recently undertook a project at a home in Mirani, Queensland, to upgrade the air conditioning system in Bedroom 1. The team successfully decommissioned an aging Daikin air conditioner and installed a new Daikin 2.5kW reverse cycle inverter split system air conditioner, offering enhanced performance, energy efficiency, and comfort. Leveraging the existing infrastructure, the team delivered a professional and cost-effective solution tailored to the homeowner’s needs.
Why Upgrade to the Daikin 2.5kW Reverse Cycle System?
The homeowner sought an upgrade to replace their outdated unit, which had become less efficient over time. The Daikin 2.5kW reverse cycle inverter split system was chosen for its suitability for the bedroom size and its superior features:
- Energy Efficiency: The inverter technology adjusts the compressor speed based on the room’s requirements, reducing energy consumption and lowering operating costs.
- Quiet Performance: Perfect for bedrooms, the unit operates quietly to create a restful sleeping environment.
- Dual Climate Control: The reverse cycle function provides both cooling and heating, ensuring year-round comfort.
- Air Quality Improvement: Advanced filtration captures dust, allergens, and other impurities, delivering cleaner indoor air.
Decommissioning the Old Air Conditioner
Before installing the new unit, the Climate Air Solutions team carefully decommissioned the existing Daikin air conditioner. The process was handled with precision and in compliance with environmental standards:
- Refrigerant Recovery: The team used specialised equipment to safely extract the refrigerant from the old system, adhering to environmental regulations.
- Disconnection: Electrical wiring, refrigerant lines, and drainage systems were disconnected systematically to avoid damage to the home’s infrastructure.
- Removal of Components: The indoor and outdoor units were unmounted, and the area was prepared for the new installation.
- Proper Disposal: All components of the old unit were responsibly transported for recycling or disposal, demonstrating Climate Air Solutions’ commitment to sustainability.
Installing the New Daikin 2.5kW Air Conditioning System
The installation of the new system was a meticulous process designed to ensure the air conditioner operated at peak performance.
Step 1: Using Existing Infrastructure
Climate Air Solutions reused some of the existing infrastructure, which reduced costs and installation time:
- The concrete slab supporting the outdoor unit was retained. This provided a stable base and saved resources.
- The duct cover from the previous system was reused, maintaining a clean and streamlined appearance.
Step 2: Replacing Key Components
To ensure optimal performance and safety, the team replaced critical elements, including:
- Pipework: New refrigerant pipes were installed to match the specifications of the new system.
- Cables: Updated electrical wiring was fitted to ensure compliance with modern safety standards.
- Isolator: A new isolator switch was installed for enhanced safety and easy maintenance access.
Step 3: Installing Indoor and Outdoor Air Conditioning Units
- The indoor unit was mounted on the bedroom wall, with precise positioning for even airflow throughout the space. The team ensured a professional finish by aligning the unit and integrating it with the existing duct cover.
- The outdoor unit was securely mounted on the existing concrete slab. This stable base provided optimal support, while proper placement ensured efficient ventilation and minimised noise.
Step 4: Connection and Testing
The team connected the indoor and outdoor units with the newly installed pipework and cables, ensuring all connections were secure and leak-free. Once the system was in place, they conducted thorough testing, including:
- Verifying cooling and heating functions.
- Checking refrigerant pressure and airflow performance.
- Ensuring the system operated quietly and efficiently.
The system performed flawlessly, delivering immediate comfort and efficiency.
Benefits of the New Air Conditioner Installation
The homeowner experienced several benefits from the upgraded Daikin air conditioner:
- Enhanced Energy Efficiency: The inverter technology ensures the unit uses only the energy needed to maintain the desired temperature.
- Improved Comfort: The new system provides consistent cooling and heating, creating a comfortable environment year-round.
- Cost Savings: By reusing the concrete slab and duct cover, installation costs were reduced without compromising quality.
- Modern Aesthetic: The new unit’s sleek design and careful installation blended seamlessly into the room.
- Reliability and Safety: Updated pipework, cables, and isolator ensure long-term reliability and compliance with safety standards.
