Air conditioning cleaning Pooraka homes can book without the runaround: Pooraka Air Conditioning clears dust-clogged filters, coils and ducts so your split or ducted system runs cool, cheap and clean all summer.
Aircon Cleaning Done Properly by a Licensed Local Family Team
We are a family-owned Adelaide business with ten years behind us, and Pooraka sits on our regular run. Every clean is carried out under our full ARC refrigeration and air conditioning licence, with the price agreed in writing before we start.
Signs Your Air Conditioning Needs Cleaning
A system rarely goes from fine to filthy overnight. It gives you warnings first, and most of them show up on a hot day when you need the cooling most.
Weak airflow.
Musty smell at start-up.
Rising power bills.
Water where it should not be.
If your unit is showing any of these, a clean is the cheapest fix on the menu. Leave it and the next stop is usually a repair call, or worse.
What Our Air Conditioning Cleaning Job Covers
A proper clean goes past the filter on the front of the unit. Here is what gets done:
- Filters removed, washed and dried, or replaced where they are past it
- Indoor coil and barrel fan cleaned so air moves freely again
- Outdoor condenser coil cleared of dust, leaves and grass clippings
- Condensate drain flushed and checked for correct fall
- Evaporative pads, water feed and bleed-off inspected before summer
Split systems and ducted systems differ, and our pages on split system air conditioning and ducted air conditioning explain how each works. Either way, the job finishes with a full test run across cooling and heating.
Why Clean Systems Cost Less to Run
Cooling costs drop the moment a system can breathe again. A clean filter and coil let the unit hit temperature faster, so it cycles off instead of grinding away all afternoon.

What Air Conditioning Cleaning Costs
The honest answer is that it depends on the system and how long since its last service. A wall split that was cleaned last summer is a quick job. Ducted units in the older homes along Research Road often carry years of dust through the ducting, and that takes longer.

How it works
How Aircon Cleaning Works, Step by Step
- 1
Book a time
Ring (08) 8246 6298 and tell us the system type and what you have noticed.
- 2
Onsite inspection
The technician checks filters, coils, drains and access, then quotes a fixed price.
- 3

Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and flushed, with drop sheets down and mess taken away.
- 4
Test and handover
We run the system across both modes, confirm airflow and drainage, and show you what was found.
- 5
A date for next time
Evaporative systems in particular do best with a pre-summer service every year, and we will remind you when it is due.
What Skipping a Clean Leads To
Dirt sits behind most of the faults we get called to. A choked filter leads to a frozen coil, and a frozen coil leads to warm air or a dead compressor.
Our pages on a unit not cooling and a strange smell cover the symptoms in detail.
The pattern is always the same: a small maintenance job skipped becomes a repair bill. If your system is already past that point, our repairs team can diagnose it properly.

Questions
Your Aircon Cleaning Questions
How often should air conditioning be cleaned in Pooraka?
Once a year before summer suits most homes, and evaporative systems need a pre-season service on top because pads and water feeds wear through Adelaide's long dry cooling season.
Can you clean systems in the older brick homes around Research Road?
Yes, the Trust-era brick and brick-veneer houses along Research Road and nearby streets mostly run single-storey ducted or split systems, and both clean up well with roof space for safe access.
Do you clean evaporative coolers as well as split systems?
We do, covering pads, water feeds, pumps and pre-summer start-up, because an evaporative unit only cools properly when the pads are wetting evenly and the drain is clear.
How much does an air conditioning clean cost?
The price depends on the system type and how long since its last service, so we inspect first and give you a fixed figure in writing before any work starts.
Will a clean fix a unit that smells when it runs?
Often yes, because the smell usually starts in a dirty filter or a blocked condensate line, and if the fault runs deeper our repairs page covers the diagnostic work that follows.
