What air conditioning in Essendon involves
Air conditioning in Essendon is really two trades in one job. The refrigerant work needs ARCtick certification, and the electrical needs a VBA licence. Thunderman holds both, so the unit, the dedicated circuit and the switchboard side are handled by one person, with no juggling a salesperson and a subcontractor.
Yiannis sizes the system to the room rather than over-selling it, installs split, multi-head and ducted systems cleanly, and tests everything before he leaves. He also services and repairs existing aircon. Through a Essendon summer, that means cooling installed right, running efficiently, and compliant on both the electrical and refrigerant fronts.

Why Essendon is its own job
Aircon is a big slice of the Essendon workload, and it's where holding both licences really tells. The interwar Californian bungalows here have high ceilings and generous rooms that don't cool cheaply, so owners want ducted reverse-cycle sized correctly, neatly zoned, and the condenser sited where it won't spoil a period façade. The two things that get this wrong when it's done badly are sizing and electrical supply — and both sit squarely with an electrician who also holds the ARCtick refrigerant certification. Many of these homes need a supply upgrade, sometimes a move to three-phase, to run ducted cooling and an EV charger together without straining the board.
