Our edge in Broadbeach: Uniquely qualified

Most heat-pump issues straddle trades. We bring them all at once.

Refrigeration/Airflow — coil cleaning, fan & capacitor tests, defrost logic, vibration/noise diagnosis.
Electrical — RCD trips, controller clocks/programs, relay/element draw, start/run capacitors.
Plumbing — tempering/NRV valves, leaks, isolation/relief valves, outlet temp stability.

Result: fewer visits, faster answers, and fixes that actually stick.

Broadbeach field notes (why units struggle here)

Salt + wind on beachside balconies (Jefferson-adjacent vibe without the parking): coils matt over, fans get loud, fixings corrode.
Timer drift after brief power blips around events at the Convention Centre → unit misses off-peak, recovery lags.
High-rise plant rooms: poor makeup air and warm return air confuse defrost cycles.
Valve issues in older stacks near Oasis/Surf Parade: tempering set too low or clogged, causing “only warm” taps.
Pests & moisture in control boxes (classic SEQ) → intermittent RCD trips, buzzing relays.

We handle service lifts, loading docks, key collections, SWMS and protect common areas—no drama for building managers.

Mini case study — Surf Parade apartment

Symptoms: night drone, lukewarm mornings, random “ice” icon.
Find: evaporator coil clogged from sea haze, weak fan capacitor, tank thermistor ~10 °C off, controller clock 50 mins slow.
Fix: coil clean, new cap & sensor, program/clock corrected, defrost verified.
Outcome: quiet running, steady ~55–60 °C storage, no overnight thrash.

What we test (and prove)

Air side: coil condition, fan speed/amperage, airflow path, defrost behaviour
Refrigeration side: discharge/suction temps (non-invasive), start/run capacitors, vibration/noise clues
Electrical: supply integrity, RCD operation, element/compressor draw, controller clock/program
Water side: inlet pressure, tempering valve performance, non-return, leaks, anode (where applicable)
Proof: outlet & storage temps and recovery time—with photos/notes for strata or warranty

Same-day fixes we often complete

Coil clean & drain clear • fan motors/caps • tank/coil thermistors • tempering & non-return valves • element & thermostat (where fitted) • controller re-programming • corroded unions & seals

Control boards and compressors are typically order-only; we’ll set a safe temporary plan (or element-only mode where available).

Repair vs replace — straight talk

Repair when the tank is sound and the fault is a part (sensor, fan, cap, valve, element).
Replace when the cylinder is corroded, the compressor keeps faulting, or parts are obsolete. We’ll size a new heat pump for your apartment/household and tariff, install it, remove the old unit and register warranties.
