Local knowledge
Service intervals for Kensington
Local exposure sets the maintenance clock. Kensington and Kingsford sit a few kilometres back from the coast, and on many summer days that is far enough for the sea breeze to weaken or miss the suburb entirely, leaving afternoons hot and still while Coogee cools off. Anzac Parade and the big campus buildings store heat and release it slowly, so evenings stay warm. There is little salt to worry about this far inland, which simplifies outdoor unit selection, but the heat load on west-facing rooms and top-floor flats is the real design driver. Winter is mild, with reverse-cycle heating used mostly on still, clear mornings.
That is what the annual visit manages: coils cleaned before efficiency slides, drains cleared before summer humidity finds them, refrigerant and electrical checks logged so the manufacturer warranty stays watertight.
