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.

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.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Very likely, your team arrived on time. They worked quickly and efficiently, plus they were very friendly. They left our house as they found it , clean and tidy. Just one thing they left behind a piece of equipment which I'm sure they can use. It is no use to us, so it would be a shame to throw it out. Many Thanks.

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

I just had my two units installed. Please pass on my thanks to Jared Wates, who provided the quote, and the team that installed the systems today. The installation team worked really hard, double-checked, if not triple-checked, and certainly made sure things were clean when they left. A very professional and courteous team.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
