Air Conditioning in Newtown

Air Conditioning Newtown

Heating and cooling for Toowoomba's first suburb outside the city centre, where nearly half the homes are rented.

Newtown, immediately west of the city centre, was the first area outside it to be subdivided for housing, in 1865. At the 2021 Census it had 10,039 residents, and 47.2% of its homes were rented. Care Technical Services installs, services and repairs split, multi split and ducted systems and Temprite units across Newtown, with the electrical work done by a Master Electrician.

Newtown

Air conditioning in a long-established suburb is as much an electrical job as a refrigeration one. Houses in older suburbs are often extended or renovated over the decades, and an air conditioner added to one of them needs a circuit that can carry it. We check the switchboard and wiring, install the system, and leave you with a unit that runs on a safe supply. For landlords, we also handle servicing and repairs between tenancies.

Why Care Technical Services

Why Choose Us in Newtown

Newtown's 4,214 occupied dwellings at the 2021 Census were mostly modest: 49.2% had three bedrooms, 28.4% had two, and 9.7% were flats or apartments, against 3.7% across the Toowoomba Region. In homes of that size a single well-placed split system often does most of the work, and we would rather tell you that than oversell.

Local Area Insights: Newtown

Newtown has a long civic history: from 1913 to 1917 it had its own local government, the Town of Newtown. Its heritage-listed places include Elphin on Anzac Avenue, the Toowoomba Maltings on Mort Street, Ascot House, Weetwood and Spreydon, the house where Fairholme College began as Spreydon College in 1908.

The Bureau of Meteorology's Toowoomba Airport averages show a mean January maximum of 28.4°C and a mean July minimum of 6.7°C. In a rented home, a system that fails in either season is an urgent problem for the tenant, so we diagnose the fault, explain it to the owner or agent, and fix it.

Older homes often have switchboards that predate today's appliance loads. Before we connect a new system, we check that the circuit and its protection suit it, and recommend any electrical work needed.

Air Conditioning FAQs: Newtown

FAQs

My Newtown house is old. Can it take an air conditioner?

Usually, once the electrical side is checked. We look at the switchboard and circuit first and recommend any upgrade needed before connecting a new system.

I manage a few rentals in Newtown. Can you look after the air conditioning?

Yes. We service and repair split, multi split and ducted systems and Temprite units, and can work with tenants and agents on access.

What size system does a two-bedroom unit need?

It depends on the room sizes, orientation and how the space is used. We assess the unit and recommend a system that suits it rather than guessing from the bedroom count.

Can you fix a unit that keeps needing to be reset?

A system that needs resetting constantly has a problem, and a malfunction could be close. We test it to find the cause and quote the repair.

Do you also do electrical work?

Yes. Care Technical Services is a Master Electrician business offering residential, commercial and industrial electrical services as well as air conditioning.

What warranty do you offer?

A 12-month warranty covers all our electrical workmanship, and specific products carry a full 5-year manufacturer's warranty.
