Split Systems
Filters require cleaning/vacuuming on a regular basis, at least every 6 months. Batteries require changing in remotes, this can be the cause of units not working. Consult an instruction manual, is the unit on the correct setting?
Your Aircon will not work efficiently when it’s over 35 degrees outside. You will not be able to get the unit to cool your property to 18 degrees so do not expect this to happen. Please set to around 24 degrees on these extreme hot days to avoid damaging the unit.
Locks Sticking/Stiff
Use graphite to lubricate. Have you had a new key cut? It could not be quite the right fit.
Smoke Detector Beeping
Replace the battery if you can.
No Water
Check meter, has it been turned off? Check with your neighbours/other residents. Perhaps there are temporary works within the complex. Call your water company to ensure it hasn’t been turned off in the street.
No Hot Water
Is the unit gas? If so, has the pilot light gone out that you are able to relight? Check with your water company water hasn’t been switched off in the street or your gas company if the unit is gas.
Check the unit itself, if it’s an electric instantaneous and showing an error code, trouble shoot with an instruction manual also try switching the HWS mains switch off for a few minutes and back on again to see if this re sets.
If an outdoor unit, is water coming out of the unit? If so a plumber is required, if its an electric system an no water is coming out of it then chances are an electrician is needed, if gas then generally a plumber is required.
Oven Not Working
Is the child lock on (key symbol)? Have you set the timer? Some ovens require this to be done before they will work. If the timer is flashing, it needs to be set. Check mains to see if switch has tripped.
Is the unit gas, could the pilot light have gone out that is easy to relight? Please refer to loss of power or no gas below.
Loss of Power
Contact your distributor to see if there are any faults. Contact your retailer to ensure there are no issues with bill payments. Check the mains switches to see if the safety switch has tripped. You can turn safety switch back on and test appliances one at a time, if it goes off again, you should be able to determine the appliance or area that is the issue and isolate the mains switch to that particular area only on the mains switch board so you still have power to other areas. Has a fuse blown? Sometimes too many appliances used at the same time can cause a fuse to blow or an overload.
