Air conditioning that is serviced on a schedule runs better, costs less to operate and breaks down less often. Air conditioning that is only looked at when someone complains tends to fail on the hottest day of the year. Eclipse provides programmed and reactive HVAC maintenance for offices, warehouses, retail, strata buildings and server rooms across Sydney.
Why planned HVAC maintenance pays for itself
Dirty filters and coils make a system work harder to deliver the same comfort, which shows up on the power bill and in shorter equipment life. Blocked condensate drains cause leaks through ceilings. Worn belts, failing capacitors and loose electrical terminals give plenty of warning to a technician who is looking, and none at all to occupants.
For many buildings the stakes are higher than comfort. Server rooms overheat, retail tenants lose trade, and in warehouses and production areas heat affects staff and stock. Planned maintenance turns an unplanned outage into a scheduled part replacement.
What we do
We start by building an asset list of every unit on site, then agree a service frequency based on the type of plant, how hard it works and the environment it sits in. A typical service visit includes:
- Cleaning or replacing filters and cleaning indoor and outdoor coils
- Checking refrigerant circuit performance and looking for signs of leaks
- Clearing and testing condensate drains and trays
- Checking fans, belts, bearings and motors
- Inspecting electrical connections, contactors and capacitors
- Measuring supply and return air temperatures and checking controls and setpoints
- Recording defects with photos and recommended actions
Reactive work is handled by the same technicians, so they already know your plant. Call us with a breakdown and we will prioritise it, with contract clients at the front of the queue. Our commercial HVAC maintenance checklist covers the tasks in more detail.
What you receive
After each visit you receive a service report for every unit, showing what was done, readings taken and any defects found, ranked by priority. Over time that history becomes a life-cycle record: which units are costing the most to keep running and which should be budgeted for replacement. When replacement makes sense, our installation team can plan it around your operations.
Where it fits with our other trades
Many air conditioning faults are electrical, and ours are fixed by our own electricians without waiting for another contractor. We can also scan HVAC supply boards with thermal imaging to find overheating terminals before they cause a breakdown. Where a building has controls, we check and tune the BMS schedules so plant is not running for empty floors.
Bundle HVAC servicing with electrical testing and CCTV health checks under one maintenance contract and you get one schedule, one report and one invoice.
