Albany Air and Albany Refrigeration: Air Conditioning in Albany WA
We supply, install and service air conditioning in Albany WA for houses and businesses, working from Stead Road and covering the local region as we have for more than 35 years. Reverse cycle heating and cooling is the bulk of what we do, in new builds and in existing homes, alongside commercial work where a shop, office or kitchen needs conditioning that will hold up to daily use.
Daikin and Fujitsu, installed by the people who service them
We specialise in Daikin and Fujitsu systems and carry a complete range of heating, cooling and ventilation solutions for all applications, and we are also an Advantage Air dealer. The part worth knowing is what happens afterwards: we are service agents for the air conditioners we sell, so the business that installed the system is the business that comes back to it. We are authorised warranty repairers for all the major brands, which takes the argument about whose problem it is out of the equation. Refrigerant is handled in line with the environmental regulations that govern it.
Systems we install, and how to choose between them
Reverse cycle is regarded as the most efficient form of heating available, and it runs quietly, holds a consistent temperature, filters the air and cools the house in summer as well. Which system suits you comes down to the building.
Your options
- Ducted split systems: one indoor unit concealed in the ceiling space and one outdoor unit, with the air delivered through ductwork.
- Zoning: day and night zones can be added so you can heat or cool the living areas and the bedrooms separately.
- Wall mounted splits: the straightforward single-room answer for a bedroom, study or extension.
- Ceiling cassettes: efficient in commercial spaces where a wall unit would be in the way.
- Multi-split systems: several indoor heads running from one outdoor unit.
- Evaporative cooling: commonly used in commercial kitchens, where the air needs to keep moving.
New homes, existing homes and commercial buildings
A new build gives us the most room to work with. There are many more possibilities for where the outdoor unit goes, and all the pipework and ductwork can be concealed for a neater finished result. Our staff are experts at pre-laying pipework into the framework during construction, and on houses with high ceilings we use design features such as low level return air grilles in walls backing onto voids to get the best possible air charge. We offer a free design and quote service and can recommend design features to suit both your house plan and your budget — email us your plans and we will come back with an obligation-free quote.
Retrofitting an existing home is a different exercise. Most existing homes require a site inspection so we can recommend the best solution and the best location for the unit, with the neatest and most efficient outcome — so we come and look before we quote, at no charge. As specialist Daikin and Fujitsu dealers we can price match, and every installation is guaranteed. Because we are authorised warranty repairers for those brands, repairs are handled as a priority by technicians who know the system, rather than bouncing between the installer and the manufacturer.
Commercial fit-outs draw on the same range: reverse cycle for offices and shops, ceiling cassettes where a wall unit would be in the way, and evaporative cooling in kitchens, with ventilation solutions as part of the package.
