Hiring a professional AC installer is the way to go,
whether you’re navigating unit selection. In Australia, particularly in a busy city such as Brisbane, entrusting the job to an expert is crucial.
Professional AC installers, such as Element Electrical, bring a wealth of experience and training to the task. With specialized expertise, they are adept at handling refrigerants safely, minimizing risk like flammability, toxicity and other hazards.

Moreover, opting for professional installation is essentials for safeguarding manufacturer warranties, providing peace of mind in case of any unforseen issues.
If you’re in need of reliable AC installer in Brisbane, consider reaching out to Element Electrical at 0432 616 5932. They offer expert services to meet you air conditioning needs efficiently and effectively.
Factors to consider
FACTORS TO CONSIDER
Efficiency of an air conditioner depends on various factors beyond just its size. Considerations such as:- Insulation: The quality and effectiveness of home insulation significantly impact cooling efficiency.
- Climate Conditions: The severity of summer heat and humidity affects how hard the AC unit needs to work.
- Sun Exposure and Shade: The amount of sunlight and shade your home receives daily affects cooling requirements.
- Windows: Number, design, age, and insulation efficiency of windows influence heat gain or loss.
- Ceiling Height: The volume of air in the room affects how effectively the AC cools the space.
- Ductwork Condition: Well-maintained ducts ensure efficient airflow throughout the house.
- Occupancy: The number of people in a room affects the heat load and cooling needs.
- Roof Material: The type of roofing material can influence heat absorption and retention.
Big vs Small
TOO BIG
An oversized air conditioner leads to frequent short-cycling, toggling on and off frequently to meet the set temperature, potentially resulting in increased energy usage. The consequences include:
- Inconsistent temperatures (excessive cold or heat)
- Short-cycling of the air conditioning unit
- Elevated humidity levels due to brief operational periods
- Diminished indoor air quality
- Higher power consumption (escalation in operating expenses)
- Reduced lifespan of the air conditioner (accelerated wear and tear)
TOO SMALL
Conversely, an undersized unit will struggle to adequately cool the area, leading to continuous operation without achieving desired temperatures.
Consequences include:
- Frequent overheating occurrences
- Inconsistent temperature regulation
- Inability to sufficiently cool the space, resulting in perpetual operation
- Heightened dehumidification due to prolonged running
- Increased wear and tear due to continuous operation
- Elevated power consumption
Element Electrical can provide you with complete confidence that you are receiving both a quality air-conditioning unit as well as quality installation.
Does size matter?

Choosing the ideal air conditioner for your residence or commercial space involves more than simply considering the kilowatt rating. Various factors contribute to the selection process, challenging the notion that AC size alone determines everything. Here are key considerations to ponder when deciding on the optimal cooling solution for your home.

Energy efficiency ratings.
When purchasing an air conditioner in Brisbane’s warm and often humid climate, it’s crucial to consider the energy efficiency rating. Air conditioners are rated on a 10-star scale base on their energy efficiency. For those prioritizing efficiency, opting for an inverter air conditioner is advisable. These units can regulate temperature more efficiently without frequent starting or stopping.
Additional features to consider.
Air conditioners equipped with additional feature often come with a higher price tag. When considering a new air conditioner in Brisbane, Australia, it’s essential to prioritize certain features. These may include a built-in dehumidifier, reverse cycle functionality, smart connectivity, air filters for odor and fungus removal, turbo cooling, rust-proof bases and pans, as well as convenient features like remote control and timers.
