Summer is arriving early and it’s going to be a hot one

The Bureau of Meteorology has confirmed that this summer will bring earlier, longer and more intense heatwaves across Australia.

For Melbourne homeowners, that means now is the time to check your air conditioning before the first 40°C day hits. Coldflow can help with installation, maintenance and repairs to keep your home cool all season long.

Australia’s summer heat is starting earlier and lasting longer

The Bureau of Meteorology expects abnormally high daytime and night-time temperatures across most of the country this summer, with Victoria and Tasmania among the regions likely to see record heat. Ocean temperatures around Australia are at their warmest on record, pushing hotter air inland and extending the length of summer.

That means less relief overnight, higher energy use and air conditioners running harder than usual. For homes and businesses in Melbourne, this shift in climate is a reminder that cooling systems need to be efficient and reliable.

Why early preparation matters

When summer temperatures surge, so does demand for air conditioning repairs and new installations. By December, booking times are long and parts availability becomes limited. Servicing or upgrading before the first major heatwave is the smart move.

A pre-season service from Coldflow can help prevent breakdowns during peak demand, reduce energy costs and extend the life of your system. Whether you’re using a split system, ducted refrigerated system or evaporative cooler, efficiency testing and filter cleaning now will save headaches later.

Is your current air conditioner ready for another hot summer?

If your air conditioning unit is over ten years old or struggles to maintain consistent cooling, it might be time for an upgrade. Modern Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric and Fujitsu systems installed by Coldflow use advanced inverter technology and smart zoning controls to cool faster and more efficiently, which suits Melbourne’s unpredictable conditions.

For larger homes or commercial spaces, Coldflow’s ducted air conditioning options deliver whole-house comfort with sleek, hidden vents and easy temperature control from a single panel or app.
