Air conditioning Cessnock

Cessnock is about 45 minutes from our Mayfield workshop, with Kurri Kurri on the way in. Out here we fit and repair air conditioning in weatherboard miners' cottages, newer brick homes and the cellar doors around Pokolbin, along with the cool rooms out the back. We'll come out and price a new system for free.

Rang on a Saturday morning in a heatwave. Someone answered, ran me through resetting the isolator, and when that didn't fix it they came out from Newcastle that afternoon.

Air conditioning in Cessnock 2325

Cessnock's July nights average 4.3° and its January afternoons 30.4°, so a system here works hard at both ends of the year, often inside a cottage a miner built long before anyone pictured one.

Cessnock grew out of the coalfields. Geologist Edgeworth David's survey of the Greta coal seam in the late 1880s set off the local mining industry, and the South Maitland coalfields filled the district with workers between 1903 and 1923. Kurri Kurri, 14 km east of Cessnock, was founded in 1902 to serve the collieries and was one of Australia's first fully planned towns, and its streets still hold many small miners' cottages. The typical one is a modest rectangle with a simple gable roof, weatherboard walls, a brick chimney on the outside and a posted veranda, and most were built by the miners themselves. The Bureau of Meteorology's Cessnock Airport station, with records back to 1968, averages a January maximum of 30.4°C and a July minimum of 4.3°C. At Nobbys on the coast the same months average 25.6°C and 8.5°C. The Hunter Valley around Cessnock is Australia's oldest wine region, with about 1,800 hectares under vine, mostly in Pokolbin, Mount View and Allandale.

23What we do here

Air conditioning work around Cessnock

  • Miners' cottages in Cessnock and Kurri Kurri

    Usually one reverse cycle split in the main living room, sized to push air through to the bedrooms off it, and sometimes a small one in the main bedroom. In many of these cottages it takes over from the old fireplace as the main heater, so we size it for July nights as much as for January afternoons.

    Split Systems
  • Cellar doors and tasting rooms around Pokolbin

    Commercial splits and ducted systems for rooms that fill with visitors on a hot Saturday. We pick quiet indoor units for tasting rooms and book installs and servicing outside opening hours, so a weekend's trade isn't lost.

    Ducted Air Conditioning
  • Cool rooms and wine storage

    Cool room breakdowns, servicing and replacement refrigeration units for wineries, restaurants and growers. Where a new cool room needs its own power circuit, a licensed electrician we bring in runs it, and we connect the refrigeration.

23Questions

Cessnock: common questions

Do you install and repair air conditioning in Kurri Kurri?

Yes. Kurri Kurri is roughly 30 minutes from Mayfield, one of the closer towns on our Cessnock run. We install splits and ducted, service existing systems and fix breakdowns in Kurri Kurri, Weston, Abermain and Heddon Greta. Install quotes are free.

Our Cessnock miners' cottage has a big front room and small bedrooms. What works best?

Most of these cottages suit one reverse cycle split in the main room, sized a little larger so it can reach the rooms off it with the doors open. If the bedrooms are closed off at night, a small split in the main bedroom helps. In a small cottage, two splits usually cost less than ducted.

Can you fix the cool room at our winery before vintage?

Yes, and the earlier you ring, the better. A cool room that is slow to pull down, ices up or cycles constantly usually has a fault worth finding before the busy weeks. We check the refrigerant charge, the fans, the door seals and the controller.

Do you work across the Hunter Valley wine country, or only in Cessnock town?

Across the Hunter Valley vineyards too. Pokolbin is a little under an hour from Mayfield, and we cover Mount View, Allandale, Rothbury and the roads between them. Planned work out there is grouped onto set days, and a cellar door or cool room that breaks down gets the next technician free to drive out.

Will a reverse cycle split heat a Cessnock house through July?

A correctly sized one will. The average July overnight low at Cessnock is around 4.3°C, so we size the heating capacity to the room on the coldest nights rather than to the cooling load alone. Drawing the curtains at dusk helps it keep up.

We want to cool a wine cellar under the house. Can a normal split do it?

Not well. A split is built to cool people and dries the air as it runs, while wine wants a steady, cool temperature and enough humidity to keep the corks from drying. A dedicated wine cellar cooling unit holds both. We size it to the cellar's volume and insulation, and quote the install after a look at the room.
