The "Salt Spray" Problem
Victor Harbor, Goolwa, and Port Elliot are beautiful places to live, but the ocean air is brutal on machinery. We often see standard "big box store" air conditioners rust out and fail in less than 5 years because they aren't built for the coast.
The salt spray eats through standard aluminium condenser coils, leading to gas leaks and expensive failures. If you live within 5km of the ocean, you simply cannot install a standard residential unit and expect it to last.
Coastal Specific Solutions
Marine Grade & "Gold Fin" Protection
We supply and install units specifically treated for coastal environments. We recommend brands that feature:
- "Gold Fin" or "Blue Fin" anti-corrosion coatings on the outdoor coils.
- Stainless steel mounting brackets (so your unit doesn't fall off the wall when the brackets rust).
- PC Boards sealed against humidity and salt.
Holiday Home Maintenance
Own a shack at McCracken or a rental at Goolwa? We offer specific maintenance plans for holiday homes. We can install WiFi-enabled controllers so you can turn the AC on before you leave Adelaide, ensuring the house is cool when you arrive.
We also perform off-season checks to ensure your system works when the summer guests arrive.
Serving the South Coast
From maintaining commercial fridges for cafes on Ocean Street to installing split systems in new builds at Encounter Lakes, we are regularly on the coast.
