Client Requirements
The homeowners approached Climated Air Solutions seeking a dedicated air conditioning solution for their master bedroom. Located in the Mackay region, Te Kowai experiences hot, humid summers and mild winters, making year-round temperature control essential for comfortable living.
Their key requirements included:
- Efficient cooling during Queensland’s hot summer nights
