Our base is on Paramount Drive in Henderson. When you book air conditioning installation in Waitakere with Comfort Solutions, you get a team based out west, not one fighting motorway traffic to squeeze you in. Founders Adam Slater and Dan Mason bring over 30 years of combined experience, and they know West Auckland houses inside out.
A heat pump is a reverse-cycle air conditioner. It doesn’t burn anything to make heat. It moves heat inside when it’s cold, moves it back out when it’s hot, taking moisture out of the air along the way.
That last part matters out here. Titirangi and Laingholm get a lot of bush cover, and some of those houses barely see the sun in winter. Oratia can be just as damp. A newer townhouse at Hobsonville Point is the opposite problem (lots of glass, warms up fast). Glen Eden’s brick-and-tiles are different again.
So every aircon installation in Waitakere starts with a proper look at the house: ceiling height, insulation, which way the windows face, and whether a log burner is already doing half the work. If the unit is too small, it runs flat out all winter. If it’s too big, you’ve paid for grunt you’ll never use.
We fit high wall units, floor consoles, ceiling cassettes, under-ceiling units and full ducted systems. We’re approved installers for Panasonic, Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu.
Here’s the catch with living by the sea. In Te Atatū Peninsula, Herald Island, Muriwai and Piha, salt air slowly chews through outdoor unit fins and casings, and it’s usually further along than people realise by the time they notice. If your place cops the sea breeze, we’ll sort out where the unit should go and how often to get it serviced.
One customer, Louise R, had been trying to get a heat pump into a hot upstairs room for 14 years before we sorted it. We’re happy to take on tricky jobs, and every install comes with our 5-year Comfort installation warranty.
“Half the winter call-outs we get aren’t broken units at all,” says Adam. “The filters are clogged, the coil’s filthy, and the owner thinks it’s died. A good clean brings it straight back.”
Aircon servicing in Waitakere starts from $160 including GST, and we’re happy to look after units another company put in. Book it in before winter and that’s one less thing to worry about between the school run and a Sunday at Bethells Beach.
Most homes need a service once a year. Coastal houses, and homes with pets or a smoker, usually need one more often. You can browse our heat pump servicing options or compare our heat pump and air conditioning systems before you call.
