Sunshine Coast Air Conditioner Installation
A good air conditioner isn’t just about the brand — it’s about the installation. Done wrong, even the best system can underperform. That’s why proper air conditioner installation is key. Allchin Airconditioning & Refrigeration Electrical, based in Caloundra and servicing the Sunshine Coast, installs split systems, ducted, cassette and multi-split units with care and precision.
We handle every step — from helping you choose the right size and model, to setting up zoning, wiring and drainage. Our licensed technicians know how to work with tricky layouts, heritage homes, renovations and new builds. Whether you need a compact split system in a bedroom or a full ducted setup for the family home, we'll make it seamless.
Clean workmanship, smart placement and full system testing come standard with every install. Get in touch with our team on 0447 347 428 to book your air conditioner installation with a team that gets it right.

Long-Term Fixes for Air Conditioning Faults
Some repairs are quick — a filter clean, a blocked drain, or a refrigerant top-up. Others take a bit more digging. Our technicians work across residential, commercial and caravan systems, giving them the experience to handle complex jobs without cutting corners. If your air con's been tripping power, blowing warm air, or running loud, we'll figure it out.
We service all major air conditioner types, including wall-mounted, ceiling cassette and inverter systems. Every repair includes a full inspection, clear explanation of what’s going wrong, and advice on whether to repair or replace — especially with older or less efficient models.
Our team can also upgrade older systems, rewire power supplies and install surge protection to prevent future issues. And if it’s not an emergency but something just feels off, we're happy to take a look. A small fix now could save you a big headache later.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my air conditioner blowing warm air?
If your air conditioner is blowing hot air, it could be due to a few common issues. Low refrigerant, a dirty air filter, blocked condenser coils, or a faulty thermostat may cause the system to struggle. Sometimes, it can also be as simple as the unit being set to “heat” instead of “cool.” Regular servicing helps prevent these problems, but if the issue persists, it’s best to call a licensed technician to inspect and repair the system.
How much does air conditioner servicing cost?
The cost depends on the type of service. A basic check-up might be affordable, but if parts need replacing — like a capacitor, fan motor or circuit board — it could cost more.
Travel time, brand type and whether it’s under warranty can also affect the total. A good technician will provide a clear quote after diagnosing the issue, so there are no nasty surprises.
Is it better to repair or replace my air conditioner?
It depends on the unit’s age, condition and efficiency. If your system is over 10 years old and constantly breaking down, it may be more cost-effective to replace it. Modern systems are quieter, more energy efficient and often come with better warranties.
That said, if the issue is small — like a sensor or blocked drain — repair is usually the smarter option. An experienced tech can help you weigh up both sides before deciding.
Can I fix my air conditioner myself?
It’s not recommended. While cleaning the filters or checking the remote batteries is fine, deeper problems like electrical faults, refrigerant leaks or compressor failures should always be left to a licensed technician.
DIY repairs can be dangerous and may void your system’s warranty. Plus, without proper tools and training, you’re more likely to cause extra damage than fix the issue.
Are some brands of air conditioners better than others?
You can make a significant difference in the quality, longevity, and efficiency of your air conditioner by the brand you choose. Allchin recommends quality brands such as Daikin, Mitsubishi, LG, Panasonic and many more.
How much does it cost to get air conditioning installed?
Depending on the type of system, the size of the home or business, and where the unit needs to be installed, the cost of installing an air conditioning unit varies. You can schedule an onsite consultation with Allchin Air Conditioning.
How often should I replace or clean out my air filter?
Most systems will let you know when it’s time to maintain your filter with a filter light that flashes. In some environments, though, such as areas with poorer air quality, checking your air filter once every season should be enough to keep your air conditioner in good condition. For commercial units, we advise inspecting the air filter monthly.
I have an older air conditioner that is over a decade old. Should I get it fixed or replaced?
Generally speaking, when an air conditioner reaches the end of its lifespan, it’s usually a good idea to replace the unit rather than repair it. You might be able to get another year or two out of your existing unit, but it’s eventually going to fail. We recommend investing in a new unit if your old one is giving you problems.
