From a damaged outdoor circuit board to a new living-area system.

Jaric Air Conditioning & Electrical completed a split system replacement in Redland Bay after an inspection identified vermin damage to the outdoor circuit board of an existing Daikin air conditioner. Following the diagnosis, the homeowner proceeded with a replacement 7.0kW TECO reverse cycle inverter split system for their living area. The installation included a new indoor and outdoor unit, updated electrical connections and neatly enclosed external pipework.

Project at a Glance

• Service: Living-area split system replacement
• New system: TECO reverse cycle inverter split system
• Cooling capacity: 7.0kW
• Heating capacity: 7.0kW
• Outdoor mounting: Ground-level concrete base
• Electrical: Dedicated circuit and outdoor isolator

The Challenge

The homeowner’s existing Daikin split system was experiencing problems that required further investigation.

During an earlier service visit, Jaric technicians discovered that vermin activity had damaged the outdoor printed circuit board (PCB).

Daikin recommended replacing both the outdoor PCB and fan motor to restore the system to working condition.

Rather than proceeding with those repairs, the homeowner chose to replace the existing system with a new reverse cycle air conditioner.

The Solution

Jaric supplied and installed a 7.0kW TECO reverse cycle inverter split system to replace the existing Daikin unit.

The installation included:

• Removing the existing indoor and outdoor air conditioning units.
• Installing the new TECO indoor unit on the living-area wall.
• Positioning the outdoor condenser at ground level on the existing concrete base.
• Routing the refrigerant pipework and interconnecting cables through the external wall.
• Enclosing the external connections in PVC trunking for a neat finish.
• Installing a new outdoor isolation switch and completing the electrical connections.

The replacement utilised the established indoor and outdoor equipment locations.

The Results

Before: An existing system requiring repairs

The original Daikin air conditioner had suffered damage to its outdoor PCB, with replacement of the outdoor fan motor also recommended.

After: A new TECO reverse cycle system

The living area now has a replacement TECO split system with 7.0kW rated cooling and heating capacity.

A neat installation finish

The new equipment was installed in the established locations, with external pipework and cabling enclosed in PVC trunking.

The project demonstrates how a complete air conditioning replacement can be carried out while making use of suitable existing installation positions.
