Book a service if your cooler is doing any of these
The fan runs, but slow or noisy
Usually a failing motor or capacitor, a belt, or a bearing — worth checking before it fails.
Weak cooling or dry pads
A tired pump or a sticking float valve starves the pads of water.
A water stain on the ceiling under it
Water is getting into the roof from the cooler or where it sits on the roof.
It hasn’t been serviced since last summer
An annual service finds the worn parts before the first hot day, not during it.
The first heatwave is the worst day to find out — service it now.
Same fan. Same unit. One service.
Drag the handle. Look at the warning labels — identical unit in both shots. Every service is photographed, before and after.

Your cooler breathes through your ducts — see what’s inside them
Every breath of cooled air travels through the duct network below the roof. Real FreshDuct jobs, filmed by our crews — this is why a full evaporative service covers the roof unit and the ducts.

Questions people ask before booking
How much does an evaporative cooler service cost?
It depends on the unit and whether any parts need replacing. We give you a free, firm quote upfront — no call-out fee and no hidden costs. Call 04 3191 8137 or use the form.
How often should an evaporative cooler be serviced?
Once a year, ideally in spring before the first hot spell — and ideally again at the end of the season when it is drained down for winter.
Can you repair my cooler, not just service it?
Yes. Failed pumps, float valves, motors and belts are diagnosed and replaced to get the unit running — quoted before any work starts.
The fan runs but slowly or noisily — what does that mean?
It can point to a failing motor or capacitor, a belt issue on belt-driven units, or a bearing. It is worth checking before it fails completely.
I have a water stain on the ceiling under the cooler.
It usually means water is getting into the roof from the cooler or its roof penetration — an overflow, the float, a line, the tray, or failed sealing where it sits. We find which.
Should I replace the pads or the whole cooler?
Usually just the pads. Unless the cabinet is rusted through or the core parts have failed, a service and fresh pads bring most coolers back to life.
Does it include the ducts?
A full evaporative cooling service covers both the roof unit — pads, tray, water distribution, blower — and the duct network below. Tell us in the form and we will quote both together.
Do you cover my suburb?
We service Sydney and surrounding suburbs 7 days a week — tell us your suburb in the form and we will confirm.
