Frequently Asked Questions About Evaporative Cooling Air Conditioning

How Does Evaporative Cooling Work?

Evaporative Cooling uses the natural cooling properties of water to lower the temperature of a room. A ducted cooling unit is installed on the roof and connected to a series of outlets placed throughout the home. The unit draws in fresh air from outside your house.

As the air passes through the filter pads (inside the roof unit), the air is cooled down and directed into every room in your house. The hotter the air, the better the cooling effect will be.

The entire volume of air within the house is refreshed every few minutes when using an Evaporative Cooler.

What Are The Running Costs With Evaporative Cooling?

Our recommended Evaporative Cooling manufacture Breezair has the highest rating and reduction of running costs across all Evaporative Cooling brands here in Australia. Breezair Evaporative Coolers are so efficient they cost less than one tenth of a standard ducted air conditioner to run.

You could enjoy a comfortable cool house during the summer and other hot days of the year for as little as $37 per year in eletricity costs*. When you do the math,that’s on average $346 per year of savings in electricity costs compared to a standard effciency ducted refrigerated systems.

We'd highly recommend the team from Coldflow. Great communication, prompt and efficient installation and also great advice regarding the removal of our old gas wall heater. Not something we had considered but well worth it with the government rebate which we hadn't known about. Absolutely love our new Daikin unit too! Thanks coldflow.??

I received a call about 20 minutes before the team arrived at my house. They were extremely helpful and friendly. I was able to pay for the job on the spot, or alternatively, the office could send me an invoice. I appreciated the flexibility of the payment methods.

I received a welcome email reminder that a service was due and made a booking date to suit. Your technicians contacted me the day before to confirm a time and they arrived on time as promised. The work was carried out efficiently by two young men, Steven and Hilo, who did so with courtesy and good humour. They are a credit to your business.

STEVEN crcic IS THE man !!!!! I have never had a better service in my life my girlfriend and I are so stoked he got the fan in the other room working. He was professional caring and overall a champion. Give the brother a few weeks paid time off and a raise and a promotion. 10/10 can't recommend enough

I was especially happy with the happy with the airconditioner installed in my bedroom.I can highly recommend tle 2 young men who installed it. They were very polite, the airconditioner is well fitted, it works well and when cleaned up after their work. The office workers were helpful responding to calls and answering my questions.

Ray did an excellent job. As it turned out, the error that caused the problem was cleared when the power was off after the storm, but he still made sure the system was working properly by doing a really thorough check of everything. Very helpful, professional and clearly very keen to make sure the job was done properly. Great work!

Sorry I had forgotten the survey. All went well. Ray came as he said and went to work straight away. He left the area clean and tidy after explaining what he had done for the service. Will definitely look to Coldflow in two years time for the next service.

Darren Story was very helpful with the initial site visit, he explained clearly how the installation would run, and gave us the options. Ash and his team did a highly professional job with the installation, and I am thankful that they wore masks as my mum was home recovering from surgery. A brilliant job all round, thank you very much.

Team did a great job, install team had to vary the installation location of parts, access etc, vs. communicated during the sales process. This is fine, just a note that worth getting feedback from your install team to your sales team to help future customer comms. The team kept the site clean and took away all rubbish which was great

CHARLIE H.

We were very happy with the whole process, from the Sales Consultant Liam, to the installers Josh, Anton, Bailey and Casper. They were all excellent workers from the moment they arrived to when they left. They were on time, polite and cleaned up all of their mess. Would highly recommend.

We've had the team out on a few occasions now and they have been fantastic. Always on time, great communication and clearly experts in this field. I trust their work and advice and will continue to use Coldflow in the future. I'm already referring them to family and friends.

Chris Didcock was very friendly and reassured me that the issue would be rectified. However, our heater went back to fault mode after Chris left. As promised, Chris came first thing in the morning and reset the heating unit after being in contact with the manufacturer about the error code.

MICHAEL B.

June 2024

We would have liked to be given the option whether to have the smelly chemicals sprayed in the split systems, as the smell lasted for over a week and we would have opted not to have that. Otherwise we are very happy with the overall service and communication from the technician.

LAUREN C.
RINGWOOD NORTH
August 2025

Excellent service all round -from person who made appointment to the staff who attended gave great service. Notified half hour before arrival, arrived on time, service completed without fuss, used protector to safeguard flooring and minimise mess, showed photos of issue and how it was rectified, explained report and length of warranty on service.

ROSINA G.
CRAIGIEBURN
July 2024

it was a rather difficult installation but both the A/C installers and the electricians did well. i am annoyed that I missed out on the Mitsubishi Bonus Gift Card worth up to $400 due to the impossibility of accessing the Mitsubishi website which required a Pin which could not be found anywhere. Very poor.

EMILE R.
MALVERN EAST
August 2025

The whole installation and mains connection went seamlessly, with only a very small 'mains disconnect' period, which was great as my son is currently WFH and had a very small unavailability time with work. Very happy with the whole process, from quote to installation.

Keith G.
HAMPTON PARK
February 2023

Very happy with the whole process. All were knowledgeable and professional and turned up on time. They also worked through some pretty wet cold and windy weather but just got on with the job. Everything was explained and we were consulted if there were changes needed The system is working well and we are very happy with it

DIANNE L.

Once again Brodie excelled and organised a technician to come straight out to tend to a minor issue. No questions asked just great customer service as always. I highly recommended Brodie and the team at ColdFlow. After using them for the first time a few years ago we would not go anywhere else. A huge 'thank you' to everyone at ColdFlow ??

TRACEY S.

The two technicians were well mannered, presented well as representative of your company and did a good job explaining what they had done in terms of the service of our gas heater. They were polite, arrived when they said they would which is important given we work form home and have work commitments. Great ambassadors for your company.

MARIANNE S.

I have always had very good service from Coldflow in the past and now at present and I would thoroughly recommend them to everyone who has airconditioning. As our house is relatively new at present, we are waiting to hear from the builders if our system is still under warranty, if it isnt we will certainly get back to you again.

Coldflow recently removed our gas ducted heating and it replaced with a reverse cycle air conditioner. The process from quote to installation was simple and quick! Communication in the lead up to and on the day of installation was terrific. They also tidied up after themselves! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Coldflow to family and friends.

Jared came twice because we had a difficult set-up situation in a rear room with a box gutter. The solution worked out well. David and Daniel were professional and friendly installers who installed without fuss or mess. Sparky (Harold) was also efficient and easy to communicate with. My wife and I are very happy with the installation.
