The Installation Process for homes under construction
Our design and installation schedule for a home under construction is:
Stage 1
Prepare your design based on your specific needs in your home. Reverse-cycle systems are custom designed to suit your living pattern and usage of the rooms in your home. Our objective is to provide you with the best possible system, at the lowest possible capital outlay, and with the lowest running costs.
Stage 2
Provide all relevant details to your builder, and check all the details of slab penetrations, bulkheads etc that may be required and incorporated into your final plans. This is important as the Site Supervisor will build your home as per the final plans – if any details in relation to your air-conditioning system are missing they will also be missing at construction.
Stage 3
For two storey homes, the Site Supervisor advises us once the formwork for the upper floor is complete. We then go one site and ensure the location and size of all slab penetrations are correct, prior to the upper floor slab being poured.
Stage 4
Once all brickwork is complete, any chasing of walls that may be required to conceal control cables is carried out.
Stage 5
This stage involves the bulk of our work and includes positioning and piping up the fan-coil unit, electrical connections and connecting all ducting in the roof space. This is done once all roof tiles/sheeting are in place, and immediately prior to ceilings being fitted.
Stage 6
Fit-off all vents. This may take place prior to the painting of your ceilings, or after, depending on the Site Supervisor’s preference.
Stage 7
The final stage is the fitting and connection of the outdoor condenser and commissioning. This takes place at the hand-over stage.
All Stages
Your home is left clean at all stages of installation. During construction, all boxes and any other mess is placed in the skip on-site. If fitting of the outdoor unit only takes place once you have moved into your home, the cardboard box from the outdoor unit will be cut into disposable sizes so you can include it into your recycling.
Last but not least, we ask for your feedback. Your comments help us continually improve our service and systems.
