Professional residential split system aircon cleaning and AC sanitisation in Hawthorn. 45–60 minute service covering indoor and outdoor units. Fully insured, WorkSafe Victoria compliant and delivered by certified Duct Mates technicians.
In Hawthorn, homes range from classic period residences to modern apartments – and regardless of style, comfort and indoor air quality matter. Your split system air conditioner (often called an aircon or aircond) works hard through Melbourne’s changing seasons and routine professional cleaning plays an important role in maintaining reliable performance.
At Duct Mates, we provide residential split system AC cleaning and sanitisation in Hawthorn, delivered with a structured process, strict compliance and care for your home. The approximate duration of this aircon cleaning service is 45–60 minutes, subject to all pre-service conditions being met.
What’s Included in Our Split System Aircon Cleaning Service
All work is completed in line with Australian and Victorian HVAC standards and remains strictly within Duct Mates’ approved scope of service.
Indoor Unit Cleaning (Inside Aircon Unit)
Most homeowners think of this as the main part of aircond cleaning – the indoor wall unit that delivers cooled or heated air.
Our technicians carefully clean and sanitise the following internal components:
- Evaporator coil (the part that helps cool the air)
- Fan and airflow components
- Drain pan and drain line
- Antibacterial deodorising treatment to support internal hygiene
We also complete a visual inspection to confirm:
- Proper operation
- Normal indicator lights
- No visible moisture or leaks
This process supports airflow efficiency and cleanliness without unnecessary dismantling or disruption.
Outdoor Unit Cleaning (External Aircon Unit)
The outdoor aircon unit is inspected and cleaned to support correct system operation, including:
- Removal of surface debris
- Cleaning of condenser fins and fan
- Visual inspection of:
- Fan motor
- External casing
- Drainage
We also confirm clear airflow and ensure there is no visible damage.
Care is taken at all times to protect surrounding surfaces and property.
