Supply and Install a Panasonic Split System Air Conditioner
Climate Air Solutions Installs Panasonic 7.1kW Reverse Cycle Inverter Split System in Shoal Point, QLD
At Climate Air Solutions, we pride ourselves on delivering reliable, efficient, and tailored air conditioning solutions to households across Mackay and surrounding coastal communities. Recently, we were called to a home in Shoal Point, Queensland, where the homeowners required an upgrade to their existing cooling system. The project involved decommissioning and removing the old air conditioner, before supplying and installing a Panasonic 7.1kW reverse cycle inverter split system air conditioner in the living area.
To ensure maximum efficiency and durability, our team also mounted the outdoor unit on wall brackets and installed a new isolator, giving the family a safe and dependable system that will last for years to come.
Step 1: Decommissioning and Removing the Old Unit
The job began with the safe decommissioning of the home’s existing air conditioner, which had served the family for many years but was now unreliable and inefficient. The unit often struggled to keep up with Shoal Point’s warm and humid climate, especially in larger spaces like the living area.
Our qualified technicians carefully shut down the system, isolated the power supply, and recovered the refrigerant gas in compliance with Australian environmental standards. We then disconnected all electrical and refrigerant lines, removed the indoor and outdoor units, and ensured the space was prepared for the new installation. This careful process not only ensured safety but also minimised any disruption to the household.
Step 2: Selecting the Right Replacement – Panasonic 7.1kW
After assessing the home and discussing the family’s needs, we recommended the Panasonic 7.1kW reverse cycle inverter split system as the perfect solution for their living area.
The 7.1kW capacity makes this unit ideal for large, open-plan spaces, providing powerful cooling during summer and dependable heating in winter. With Shoal Point’s warm coastal climate, the homeowners wanted a system that could quickly deliver comfort while also being energy efficient.
Panasonic’s inverter technology ensures the compressor adjusts its speed based on demand, meaning the system only uses the energy it needs. This not only reduces electricity costs but also ensures a more consistent temperature without sudden fluctuations.
Step 3: Installing the Indoor and Outdoor Units
With the old unit removed and the new system selected, our team began the installation process. The indoor unit was mounted in the living area at the ideal height and position to ensure even airflow throughout the space. Its sleek, modern design blends seamlessly with the interior décor.
For the outdoor unit, we mounted it securely on wall brackets rather than on the ground. This method has several advantages, particularly for coastal properties:
- Keeps the unit elevated and away from potential flooding or water pooling.
- Improves airflow around the unit, enhancing efficiency.
- Provides protection from debris and pests.
- Makes servicing and cleaning easier.
The outdoor unit was positioned with proper clearance for ventilation, ensuring long-term reliable operation.
Step 4: Supplying and Installing a New Isolator
As part of the installation, we also supplied and installed a new isolator switch. This important safety feature allows the air conditioner to be completely disconnected from the power supply if required—for example, during servicing or in the event of an electrical fault. By fitting a brand-new isolator, we gave the homeowners confidence that their system complies with safety regulations and is protected against future risks.
Step 5: Testing and Commissioning
Once the Panasonic 7.1kW split system was fully installed, our technician carried out a detailed commissioning process. This included:
- Checking refrigerant pressures.
- Verifying all electrical connections.
- Testing both heating and cooling modes.
- Assessing airflow and temperature control.
The system performed flawlessly, delivering strong, cool airflow in cooling mode and consistent warmth in heating mode. The homeowners immediately noticed the difference in comfort compared to their old unit.
Benefits of the Panasonic 7.1kW Reverse Cycle Inverter System
The new system provides the homeowners with a range of benefits, including:
- Powerful performance – Ideal for large living areas, ensuring the entire space is comfortable year-round.
- Energy efficiency – Inverter technology reduces running costs while maintaining consistent comfort.
- Quiet operation – Minimal noise from both indoor and outdoor units, perfect for family living.
- Reliable heating and cooling – Reverse cycle technology makes the system effective across all seasons.
- Durability – Wall-mounted outdoor installation and a new isolator ensure long-term reliability and protection.
