Fresh, natural whole-home cooling that is cheap to run right through a Melbourne summer.
Evaporative cooling draws fresh air through water-cooled pads and pushes cool air through your whole home, so you can leave doors and windows open. It uses far less power than refrigerated cooling, which makes it a cheap, comfortable option for a Melbourne summer.
Evaporative cooling draws fresh outside air through wet filter pads and pushes the cooled air through your home. It uses noticeably less electricity than refrigerated cooling and it constantly brings in fresh air. It also behaves very differently, so it is worth understanding before you choose it.
Evaporative cools by evaporating water into fresh outside air and needs windows open. Refrigerated cooling recirculates and dries the air inside a sealed house. Evaporative uses much less power, refrigerated performs better in humid weather.
It is less effective when humidity is high, because the cooling comes from evaporation. On Melbourne's dry northerly days it performs very well, which is most of our genuinely hot weather.
Modern units are reasonably efficient with water and periodically dump and refresh to stop minerals building up in the pads. Water use is modest against the electricity it saves.
A service before each summer, with the pads checked and replaced when they harden or scale up. Pads are the part that quietly reduces performance as they age.
The first run of hot days usually arrives before Christmas, and install slots go well before that. Book the free on-site quote now and be sorted before the heat.

We work out what your home qualifies for, handle every bit of the paperwork, and take the rebate straight off the price you pay. There is nothing for you to claim back later.
"We have had Efficient Air install 4 Hisense reverse cycle units over the last 12 months. Each time had been a trouble free experience. Jason and Kelly have been great to deal with. The installation crews have been on time and completed their work without fuss."
"The team at Efficient Air are so professional and thorough with their work. A massive thank you to Peter who came out to our place to advise us of the best possible options with various quotes and Tom who did a fantastic job installing our new multi split system."
"I have always had a great experience when needing services and products from Efficient Air. I have had split systems and radiators from them and the service has been very good. The split system keeps us cool in summer and warm in winter which is what we need right now in Melbourne!"
