Yes, many air conditioning systems, particularly reverse-cycle models, can be used for heating. These systems extract heat from the outdoor air and transfer it indoors, even in colder temperatures. Reverse-cycle air conditioners are energy-efficient and provide a convenient year-round climate control solution. They can be more cost-effective than traditional heating methods, such as electric or gas heaters, making them a versatile choice for both cooling and heating your space.

Unpleasant odours from your air conditioner can result from mould or mildew growth in the system, often caused by moisture build-up in the ducts or drain pan. Dirty filters, accumulated debris, or a refrigerant leak may also cause bad smells. To address this issue, clean or replace the filters, and ensure the system is regularly maintained. If the smell persists, contact a professional technician to thoroughly inspect and clean the unit.

R22 is an older refrigerant that has been phased out due to its ozone-depleting properties. R410A, a more environmentally friendly option, is used in modern air conditioners. R410A operates at higher pressures, making it more energy-efficient and effective at cooling. If your air conditioner uses R22, consider upgrading to a newer system, as R22 is no longer produced or readily available, which can make repairs and maintenance costly.
