Air Conditioning & Your New Home Development

Your comfort, our expertise and care

Congratulations on building your new home

This is a very exciting time for you and your family, because you are finally getting the space you need and want.

At this stage you probably have the dining room table laid out full of brochures on new kitchens, carpets, blinds, paint colours, furniture and the latest 75" plasma for the games room. Stop right there! This is all well and good, but what about those hot summer days and cold winter nights?

The idea that you can install the air conditioning after you move in is a common mistake when building a new home and can present a number of problems and risks. Air conditioning is something that requires both sound engineering and design to suit the home you are seeking to build.

Our experience has shown that making the mistake of waiting till after you move in to install air conditioning presents a high risk of either voiding your builder's structural warranty, increasing post build costs (i.e. power, or gas upgrades), or not being able to have the system you want and need because of limitations in the initial engineering plans.

So when looking at air conditioning for your new home it is very important to ensure, right at the start, that your home has been engineered properly with regards to roof truss design, power supply, gas supply, slab design and energy design.

With over 45 years of knowledge and expertise in integrating air conditioning systems into new homes, ScottsAir is able to meet all your builder's requirements in design and engineering. And, with over 45 years experience in designing solutions for Adelaide families, ScottsAir will design the right solution for your home, your family and your lifestyle.

Quality components are also important to ensure that your new system operates effectively, keeps you comfortable and saves you running costs. ScottsAir prides itself in selecting the right ducting and fittings, so we insist on the Metalflex ® range of products. The smooth internal surfaces of these products minimise noise levels and maximise airflow, to optimise your system’s performance.

All systems are fitted with a Profiler Metal Return Air hinged grille (with filter) to further optimise system performance and air quality, and with Ezycollar moulded air volume balancing blades to ensure smooth, efficient and versatile operation.

ScottsAir has a 10 year warranty on parts and labour that includes our zone motors, Y branch fittings and return air systems. And the Metalflex Safe-T-flex ultra has been tested and passes all requirements of AS 4254-2002 for use in domestic & commercial air handling systems and includes a 25 year warranty.

advantages of including air conditioning in your new home contract

There are many advantages to including air conditioning right from the start; here are a few;

• Your air conditioning system will be integrated into your home and not just be an afterthought. This eliminates exposed pipe work, ducting cabling and issues with your builder's structural warranty.
• You will end up with a full structural warranty from your builder because the engineering has been done to accommodate your air conditioning system.
• There will be no need for extra building insurance to cover the air conditioning system; this will be covered by your builder.
• Gives you peace of mind that we meet your builders' occupational health and safety requirements and on site safety programme.
• You will not have to stress about when things need to be done on your home - your builder's site supervisor takes care of it.
• Provides you with Peace of mind that your air conditioning system meets all relevant Australian building codes.
• Rest assured that all you need to do is move in and switch is the system on to start enjoying your new home.
• Air conditioning is no longer a luxury item; it's an integral part of our Australian homes and lifestyles.

To ensure that you address these types of issues, quite simply ask your sales consultant, or builder to have one of ScottsAir's Senior Air Specialists design a system that suits your new home.
