Supply and Install a Panasonic Split System Air Conditioner
Case Study: Bedroom Air Conditioner Upgrade with Panasonic 3.5kW Split System in Walkerston, QLD
Climate Air Solutions was engaged by a homeowner in Walkerston, Queensland, to decommission and remove an existing air conditioning system and install a new, more efficient solution to improve comfort in the bedroom. The previous air conditioner had reached the end of its service life and was no longer delivering reliable cooling or heating, prompting the homeowner to seek a modern, energy-efficient replacement.
Initial Consultation and Split System Selection
The project began with a thorough on-site assessment by the Climate Air Solutions team. This included evaluating the bedroom size, ceiling height, insulation, window placement, and typical usage patterns. The homeowner expressed the need for a quiet system that could maintain a comfortable sleeping environment year-round without excessive energy consumption.
Based on these requirements, Climate Air Solutions recommended a Panasonic 3.5kW reverse cycle inverter split system air conditioner. This model was selected for its strong reputation for reliability, energy efficiency, and low noise operation. The 3.5kW capacity was ideally suited to the bedroom, providing ample cooling and heating performance while allowing the inverter technology to modulate output efficiently.
Decommissioning and Removal of the Existing Split System Air Conditioner
The first stage of work involved safely decommissioning the existing air conditioner. Climate Air Solutions followed all relevant Australian safety and environmental regulations during this process. The refrigerant was professionally recovered to minimise environmental impact, and all electrical connections were isolated and disconnected in accordance with industry standards.
Both the indoor and outdoor units were carefully removed, ensuring no damage to walls, floors, or surrounding fixtures. Once removed, the old system components were taken off site for responsible disposal and recycling where possible. The work area was left clean and ready for the new installation, minimising disruption for the homeowner.
Installation of New Pipework, Electrical Cables, and Isolator
As part of the upgrade, Climate Air Solutions supplied and installed entirely new refrigerant pipework, electrical cabling, and a dedicated isolator. Installing new pipework ensured compatibility with the new Panasonic system and eliminated the risk of contamination, leaks, or performance issues associated with reusing older materials.
The new pipework was insulated and neatly routed to maximise efficiency and maintain a clean, professional finish. Electrical cables were installed to current standards, providing a safe and reliable power supply. A new isolator was fitted in an accessible location, allowing for safe servicing and compliance with electrical regulations.
Installation of the Panasonic 3.5kW Split System
With all supporting infrastructure in place, Climate Air Solutions proceeded with the installation of the new Panasonic split system. The indoor unit was mounted in a position that allowed for optimal airflow across the bedroom while remaining discreet and visually unobtrusive. Special consideration was given to noise reduction and airflow direction to ensure maximum comfort during sleep.
The outdoor unit was installed on a stable, well-ventilated base to promote efficient heat exchange and long-term reliability. All pipework and electrical connections were securely fastened and sealed, with wall penetrations weatherproofed to protect the home’s interior.
Commissioning, Testing, and Client Handover
Once installation was complete, the system was pressure tested, evacuated, and charged in strict accordance with Panasonic’s manufacturer specifications. The unit was then commissioned and tested in both cooling and heating modes to confirm correct operation, airflow, and temperature control.
Climate Air Solutions provided the homeowner with a full walkthrough of the new system, including instructions on operating the remote control, setting timers, and selecting energy-efficient modes. Maintenance advice was also provided to help ensure long-term performance and reliability.
Final Result
The newly installed Panasonic 3.5kW reverse cycle inverter split system delivered an immediate improvement in comfort within the bedroom. The system now provides fast, quiet, and consistent temperature control throughout the year, with improved energy efficiency compared to the previous unit.
This Walkerston project highlights Climate Air Solutions’ commitment to high-quality workmanship, attention to detail, and customer-focused solutions. By supplying new pipework, electrical cabling, and an isolator alongside the new air conditioning system, the team ensured a safe, compliant, and reliable installation that will serve the homeowner for many years to come.
