Prepare For Summer

As the Days Get Longer, Start Thinking About Getting Your Cooling Systems Set Up for Summer

Sharpe Group, Adelaide’s leading specialist in household heating and cooling, electrical, plumbing and solar, has a range of service packages on offer.

“As the warmer weather approaches, homeowners will soon be activating their cooling systems,” Sharpe Group spokesman David Sharpe says.

“It is vital to make sure evaporative air conditioners are working at peak efficiency. As well as the fire safety aspect, this will save you money in running and repair costs.” Evaps are pump-and-fan systems that require regular lubrication, adjustment and checking for electrical safety. Filters and pads need to be cleaned or replaced and the water reservoir flushed and refilled.

Mr Sharpe says the Metropolitan Fire Service advises that all electrical cooling equipment should be professionally serviced before summer use to prevent equipment overheating and starting a fire. Sharpe Group offers a complete range of service packages. For example, if you have rooftop solar, Sharpe’s SolarSafe System Service verifies it is operating at peak efficiency and all electrical connections meet industry standards.

“Homeowners will be expecting maximum solar gains from their rooftop panels this summer,” Mr Sharpe says. Reverse airconditioners also need regular servicing. “A poorly maintained airconditioner can easily eat up 25 per cent more electricity than a recently serviced model,” he says. “Not only is the system’s performance greatly reduced but increased strain is put on key components like the compressor, which can be costly to repair.”

Entertaining takes centre stage as Christmas approaches, so get in early with a Sharpe service package that covers all gas and electric stoves and cooktops. “We have packages that span all our areas of expertise.”

Book a Sharpe Group fixed-price service to identify issues before they become a problem.
