These whole house systems are becoming more and more popular, and for good reason. They offer a ton of benefits that make them a great choice for your whole house and Australia’s ever-changing climate. Here are our top nine: 1.

Nominal Capacity, Sound Pressure, EER & COP. Have you ever looked at an air conditioner brochure and wondered what all the jargon and numbers refer to? Fortunately, we’ve put together a handy guide that can help you understand the jargon and identify what system might be best for your home. Nominal Capacity Measured in Kilowatts (kW), this represents the average output capacity of the air-conditioner when used in either heating or cooling mode. The larger the capacity, the more cooling and heating power the system has. Split systems with capacities ranging from 2.0kw to 6.0kW (such as our Avanti and Avanti PLUS series) are designed for smaller spaces such as bedrooms, studies and small loungerooms. Systems with capacities ranging from 6.3kw to 10.0 kW (such as our Bronte series) are more suited to larger rooms such as living areas, larger loungerooms, etc. If you want to get a feel for…

While air conditioners have been around for decades and over 50% of all Aussie households have one installed, there’s still a lot of myths and misconceptions surrounding them and their use. To try and clear a few things up, here are 5 of the most common air conditioner myths debunked. These myths range from how much power they use, how much they cost to run, maintenance, what you can and can’t do with them, the list goes on. Air Conditioner Myth #1: They Are Expensive to Run Approx. 38% of Aussies think that their air conditioner is the main contributor to their electricity bill, so it makes sense that this is one of the biggest air conditioner myths out there. The reality is that modern air conditioners deliver approx. 300-400% efficiency. This means for every 1kW of power your air conditioner uses, it can deliver between 3-4kW in cooling or…

They keep us cool during those long hot summers on the couch watching the cricket and toasty warm during cold winters bingeing Netflix. We love them. Many of us can’t live without them. You guessed it, we’re talking about reverse cycle air-conditioners. Originally invented all the way back in 1901, the first air-conditioner was installed in a printing plant to help control both the temperature and the humidity which helped maintain consistent paper dimensions and ink alignment in the machines. Today they’re installed in the majority of Aussie households and are designed to keep us comfortable all year round. However, your air conditioner also has a range of handy features and functions that you probably didn’t even know about. In this blog, we take a closer look at 6 things you probably didn’t know a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries air-conditioner could do. 1. CAPTURE AND NEUTRALISE ALLERGENS Hayfever sufferers know all…

It’s that time of year. The days feel slightly longer, the air temp is a touch warmer and trees are flowering  – these are all tell-tale signs that Spring has arrived. If you’re an allergy sufferer however, it comes with a slightly more ominous sign – hay fever. Hay fever is the most common allergic disorder in Australia, affecting an estimated 5 million Aussie’s and causing a range of issues including itchy, red and watery eyes, runny nose, constant sneezing and severe cases, headaches and drowsiness. It’s caused by the nose and/or eyes coming into contact with environmental allergens, such as pollen, dust mites, mould and animal hair. During Spring, pollen from grasses and newly flowering trees is the main culprit and can easily set off hay fever. Many of us who suffer from hay fever during this period and especially those who suffer all year round, know that antihistamines are…
