Some Air Conditioning Tips

Follow our tips to save energy when using your air conditioner and learn how to manage your home energy use during peak demand times.

Many households use their air conditioner during daily peak demand times, increasing stress on the electricity network. Follow the tips below to save energy when using your air conditioner and learn how to manage your home energy use during peak demand times.

Choose an Energy Efficient Air Conditioner
It’s important to purchase the most energy efficient option you can when buying an air conditioner at home. In most cases, you may find it cheaper in the long run to completely replace an old inefficient air conditioning system rather than buying an additional one.

Optimal Temperature Setting
Every degree of extra cooling may increase your energy consumption by approximately 5 to 10%. Calculate your potential savings when you set your air conditioner at a temperature that keeps you comfortable but doesn’t use unnecessary electricity.
Set your air conditioner to an energy-efficient 24°C in summer and 18°C in winter and seal gaps and close doors, windows and curtains to cool or heat rooms quicker and keep them at a comfortable temperature for longer.

Maintenance
• Follow manufacturer instructions on how to clean the air conditioner filter. Regular dust build up can reduce airflow by up to 1% per week.
• Book a professional clean of both indoor and outdoor unit fins and coils every 6 months for improved energy efficiency and healthier air
• Keep your outdoor air conditioning unit shaded from the sun, this can increase your air conditioners efficiency by approximately 5% – 10%.

Mould, bacteria and contaminants can accumulate inside air conditioning units, which can lead to a loss of airflow, overworked motors, higher running costs and increased allergens in the home or office.

Remember a professionally cleaned and sanitised air conditioner will save you up to 30% on your energy bill.

2nd time I have HydroKleen to help. Excellent service and a super clean aircon. Reliable and fair price. I highly recommend them.Thomas Erlund
I have used Brendan at Hydrokleen for the cleaning of my air conditioner 3 times now. I live with chronic illness, which is exacerbated by mould and the use of toxic chemicals such as bleach. Brendan is knowledgeable in the area of Microbial air pollution and the "safe" treatment for the home and business environment. I happily recommend his service.Christina Cornilsen
Highly recommend Brendan at HydroKleen, he did a very thorough and professional job cleaning our 3 split systems to get them running as efficiently as possible. Will definitely be using their services again in the future!Rachel Evans

From start to finish Brendan was excellent. He was very helpful, prompt, knowledgeable, friendly and professional and did an extremely good job. I absolutely recommend Brendan to anyone who is considering AC cleaning. With the current weather conditions and high probability of mould I consider my expense to be very well spent.Glen Lynden
We recently had four AC units cleaned and checked by Brendan. His service was excellent with all units being thoroughly cleaned and checked. One wall unit was found to have a large live ant nest - which Brendan successfully treated and removed - saving the unit from an almost certain electrical fault. The air quality has significantly improved post clean and we highly recommend HydroKleen Sunshine Coast. Thank you Brendan.Megan Friend
Very friendly service and they go out of their way to make sure your system is clean and effective! They don't use cheap chemicals and explain everything so there is no hidden cost! Second time using them in 4 years and will be going back when I'm due for next clean!jack Stephens
Brendon went above and beyond to do the best job possible for us - speedy, professional and reliable with excellent results! He even had to deal with a snake that had unfortunately lodged itself in our aircon and had made quite a mess - nothing was too much trouble and we highly recommend him and his team! They take great pride and care in their work! Thanks team!Jo Eather
We chose HydroKleen Sunshine Coast because their sanitising process has been approved by the National Asthma Council. Brendan (owner) informed me on the products & process used. I was super impressed because he was able to squeeze us in at such short notice at a busy time of year. Brendan & co-worker turned up on time & also explained the process to me as he was doing the job. We have been left with crisp clean air that feels good to breathe in. We highly recommend!The Built In Boys

Great job, was very careful and did not rush. ThanksBarry and Maree Jordan
The reviews don't lie. John and Brandon were amazing. The customer service is exceptional. Just complete value for money. The air that the AC unit blows smells great and is noticeably much stronger and cooler.desian 630
Had my Air Con cleaned and the difference is massive, can already see the savings on my power bill. Thanks Hydrokleen!Gary “Gaza” H
Had Hydrokleen come to clean 2 Aircons at Moffat Beach. Cannot speak more highly of the service, very professional, friendly, and did an amazing job. Would thoroughly recommendLaurene Daniels
Prompt and friendly service. It was Great to get pictures emailed of the AC Clean before/after. Works a treat and doesn't smell old and mouldy anymore 👍James “Jimmi” Atkinson
First official hot day of summer, air con was blowing warm air only. One phone call to HK and they were happy to help out over the phone to fix the issue, very helpful and without asking for anything in return. Old skool service A+++Wash My Car Detailing
Very Happy with service, I couldn't believe how dirty the air conditioner was, and we were breathing all that muck in! Great job.Carolyn Jupp
