Yes! Keeping your air conditioner clean ensures it runs efficiently and lasts longer. Here are a few simple maintenance tips:
Dust and dirt build-up can restrict airflow, so it’s best to clean or replace filters every few weeks during peak usage.
If you have a split system, make sure the external unit is free from leaves, dirt, or obstructions to maintain proper airflow.
To keep everything in top shape, it’s a good idea to have your air conditioner serviced professionally once a year.
Always check the manufacturer's guidelines for specific cleaning recommendations.
Heaters are usually considered to be very safe for your health, and will keep the winter chill away but for some people with allergies, respiratory issues and sensitive skin, heaters can cause problems. Heaters remove moisture from the air which can cause skin to feel dry and may lead to itchiness or a rash. It can also dry out the nasal passages which can cause nose bleeds. For some people, fans or convection settings can cause trouble for those who have allergies or asthma but for the most part they are very safe. It is important to remember that they get hot! It’s always essential to exercise caution to avoid the risk of burns. Those with gas heaters will want to make sure they are serviced regularly and ventilated properly. Leaking gas or poorly ventilated rooms can be a serious danger to your health. As long as you follow the correct safety directions of your heating unit, you’ll find they are very safe.
Oil filled heaters can be very cheap to run in smaller spaces, like bedrooms. They are designed to use full power when first switched on, but will switch off their heating element once the space around them has warmed up. In a space like a bedroom, they can be very cost-effective and keep the temperature at a warm, consistent level.
Split-systems are generally considered to be the cheapest type of electric heater to run, although that will depend on factors like the size of your unit, its energy efficiency rating, the temperature you set it to, how long you operate it for and the electricity tariffs you are subject to.
Oil heaters are relatively simple - they use a heating element to heat oil which warms and radiates heat around a room. They can be quite energy efficient in the right settings, but are known to consume more energy than other types of electric heaters, like split-systems. Most oil column heaters will be around 1500 watts, although some come with low energy settings. Whilst they are heating and the heating element is in use, they will consume energy. As the temperature climbs and gets warmer, the element will switch off. In a cold, drafty room, the temperature may fall more quickly and the thermostat in the heater will tell the element to switch back on in order to heat up the room - this will consume a lot more energy. To keep energy bills to a minimum, they are best used in smaller rooms where there is less air movement.
Installing a split system air conditioner involves mounting the indoor unit, placing the outdoor compressor, and connecting them via refrigerant pipes and electrical wiring. This process requires a licensed technician to ensure proper installation, gas handling and system efficiency. DIY installation is not recommended due to safety and warranty concerns.
To reset a Fujitsu split system air conditioner, turn off the unit using the remote control, then switch off the power at the isolation switch or circuit breaker. Wait a few minutes, then turn it back on. This can help clear minor faults. If the error persists, refer to the manual or contact a licensed technician for servicing.
Installation costs for split system air conditioners in Australia typically range from $600 to $1,200, depending on the complexity of the job, the type of wall or home structure, and how far the indoor and outdoor units are apart. Always use a licensed installer to ensure safety and compliance with Australian standards.
Energy consumption depends on the type, size, and efficiency of the unit, as well as how often it’s used. Models with higher energy star ratings are designed to use less power while still keeping your space cool. To cut down on running costs, look for features like eco-mode, timers, and inverter technology, which helps regulate power use more efficiently.
Depending on the installer and your home's layout, installing a split-system air conditioner can cost anywhere from $600 to over $1,200. This includes labour, basic materials, and electrical work. Some retailers may offer package deals that include installation with the purchase of select models.
A split system air conditioner has two main components: an indoor unit mounted on a wall and an outdoor compressor unit. They work together to cool or heat your space efficiently, making them ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and open-plan areas. Many models include reverse cycle technology, allowing for year-round comfort.
The best heaters for large, open spaces are those that are powerful enough to distribute heat evenly across the space. That means you’ll want to consider either a gas heater or a split-system air conditioner. Gas heaters are well known for their powerful radiant ability and can cover even more space when paired with a fan to help spread heat across the room. Split-system air conditioning is designed to blow hot air into a room and so they’re great for an open plan layout. Another option for smaller living areas is electric flame heaters which look like a fireplace and can bring a warm atmosphere to a space.
The best heaters for bedrooms are often said to be oil column heaters. They’re compact, quiet and affordable and great for retaining heat and keeping a room warm for many hours. Alternatively a quiet fan heater, panel heater or ceramic heater can also be a great option for a bedroom space.
Gas and reverse cycle heaters are usually the cheapest (and most energy efficient) systems to use in the long run. Split-systems are capable of evenly distributing air evenly throughout spaces large and small and have the added benefit of cooling in the summer. Gas heaters will use your gas connection to heat up and can help you save on energy costs.
Most air conditioners come with warranties ranging from 1 to 5 years, depending on the brand and model. Some manufacturers offer extended warranties on certain parts, such as compressors. It’s always a good idea to check the warranty details before purchasing to understand what’s covered.
Getting the right size air conditioner is crucial for both comfort and efficiency. Here’s a general guide based on room size:
Up to 20 m² – 2 to 2.5 kW
20–40 m² – 2.5 to 5 kW
40–60 m² – 4 to 6 kW
60–80 m² – 5 to 7 kW
80+ m² – 6 to 9 kW
However, other factors like ceiling height, insulation, and sunlight exposure can affect cooling needs. For a more precise recommendation, visit our Air Conditioner Buying Guide.
There are several types of air conditioners, each designed to suit different spaces and needs:
Split System Air Conditioners are a popular choice for cooling and heating individual rooms, split systems consist of an indoor unit and an outdoor compressor. They’re efficient, quiet, and great for year-round comfort.
Window/Wall Air Conditioners are compact, all-in-one units that fit into a window or wall cavity. They’re an affordable cooling solution for single rooms.
Portable Air Conditioners are ideal for renters or those needing a flexible cooling option, these units can be moved from room to room without installation.
Evaporative Coolers use water evaporation to cool the air, making them a more energy-efficient and eco-friendly option for dry climates.

Gas and split-system air conditioners are generally considered to have the cheapest running costs. Gas heaters usually require little to no electricity and run on natural or LPG gas. Split-system air conditioners are the most energy efficient type of electric heater and many with higher star ratings will have cheaper running costs than their gas counterparts.
