Adelaide , South Australia Mar 20, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - As Adelaide transitions into autumn, residents are experiencing fluctuating temperatures, with recent highs reaching up to 39.3°C. This variability underscores the importance of ensuring that your home's plumbing and air conditioning systems are prepared to handle the demands of both intense heat and cooler periods.
Air Conditioning Usage and Importance
In 2025, the revenue in the air conditioners market in Australia is projected to reach approximately AUD 1.18 billion, with an annual growth rate of 5.25% between 2025 and 2030. This growth reflects the increasing reliance on air conditioning to combat rising temperatures.
Plumbing Challenges Amidst Rising Temperatures
Extreme heat can exacerbate certain plumbing challenges. For instance, the Western Australia Water Corporation reported 1,329 blockages in 2023, many due to non-dissolvable materials like oil, grease, and wet wipes, which are more problematic during warmer months.
Additionally, it is estimated that 10% of Australia's water supply is lost due to leaks in the distribution network. This highlights the importance of regular maintenance to ensure a reliable water supply during peak heat periods.
Expert Tips for Homeowners
To ensure your home is ready for the upcoming heatwaves, consider the following recommendations:
Air Conditioning Maintenance:
- Schedule Professional Inspections: Have a licensed technician inspect your AC unit to identify and address potential issues before the heat intensifies.
- Clean or Replace Filters: Dirty filters can restrict airflow, reducing efficiency and air quality. Regular cleaning or replacement is essential.
- Clear Obstructions: Ensure vents and ducts are free from obstructions to allow optimal airflow.
Plumbing Preparedness:
- Inspect Outdoor Fixtures: Check hoses, faucets, and irrigation systems for leaks or damage to prevent water waste and system failure.
- Seal Leaks and Insulate Pipes: Address gaps or cracks around pipes to prevent heat intrusion, which can affect water temperature and pressure. Insulating exposed pipes helps maintain water temperature and system efficiency.
- Maintain Water Pressure: Regularly monitor and adjust water pressure to prevent leaks and ensure efficient water flow throughout your home.
