FAQ

All our residential products are covered by a 5 year manufacturer’s warranty. Provided your system is a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries or Daikin, we are able to carry out this warranty claim on your behalf. To help speed up this process we do require your proof of purchase from Midcoast Air.

Unfortunately, we don’t repair/service domestic refrigerators. We recommend Fraser Coast Appliance Repairs ph 41 942 033.

2. Has the power switch been turned off?
3. Has the timer been set in the ‘on’ position?
4. Is there a power failure or a blown fuse?

Carrying out the following checks before making a service call can save you time and money if it’s something you can do yourself.

1. Have you set the thermostat at a suitable temperature?
2. Is the air filter clean and un clogged?
3. Did you leave any doors / windows open?
4. Is there direct sunlight entering the room?
5. Is there a heat source in the room?
6. Are there too many people in the room?

This is nothing to be concerned about. This is caused by refrigerating liquid moving within the unit and is a completely normal part of operation.

This is caused by the operation of the refrigerant control valves or electric components. This is a completely normal part of operation.

There are several reasons why your air conditioner’s indoor unit could be dripping water.

1. If the unit has been operated for a long amount of time, in a high humidity environment, moisture can form on the air outlet grills and start to drip.
2. The drain line (which is located outside)could be clogged. This is one of the most common reasons why your indoor unit may drip water. If the drain line becomes clogged with dirt, dust, mould or other contaminants, water can’t escape and will back up, therefore dripping water from the air conditioner’s indoor unit.
3. Your air conditoner’s air filter could be clogged or dirty. If you haven’t cleaned your filter’s recently, or had your air conditioner serviced for quite some time, a build up of dust and dirt and other allergens can restrict air flow causing the temperature to drop and freeze up the evaporators air coil, causing the dripping of water from the indoor unit.
