Roisin and Zac Tarrant, a couple of young parents and avid renovators, have taken on an exciting holiday home project in Toowoomba, Queensland.
They have recently embarked on this venture, which involves countless challenging choices to be made before and during the renovation process. From selecting between different flooring options and considering furniture arrangements to deciding on lighting fixtures, the Tarrant couple’s renovation project demanded meticulous attention to detail. Furthermore, their intention to offer the property as a rental to travelers visiting the region added an extra layer of complexity to the project.
In Toowoomba (QLD), where summer temperatures often reach an average of 30 degrees Celsius, Roisin and Zac Tarrant prioritize reliable and comfortable air conditioning solutions. They have experienced the advantages of Panasonic split-system solutions in their home and decided to upgrade to the latest generation of innovative Premium Z Series Reverse Cycle R32 Wall Split System. Their plan is to install five units throughout the property.
Recognizing the value of air conditioning units that seamlessly integrate with smart home environments and provide enhanced comfort and flexibility, the Tarrants have become enthusiastic supporters of Panasonic’s Comfort Cloud feature. This revolutionary function enables them to remotely control their entire air conditioning system, allowing them to prepare the home for arriving guests even when they are not present. With the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App on their mobile devices, the Tarrants can easily adjust the temperature in every room, monitor energy consumption, and switch between modes. This level of control offers them a highly personalized and convenient experience.
The Tarrants were not only amazed by the flexibility provided to guests in various rooms but also the cost savings associated with it. They recognized the growing importance of environmental consciousness among Australians and the economic impact on their budgets.
Panasonic’s Z Series units offer substantial enhancements in energy efficiency, effectively reducing customers’ environmental footprint. The AI-powered ECO mode automatically adjusts the system to the optimal ECO level based on heat load conditions and cooling capacity. Additionally, the Inverter Control feature allows for variable rotation speed of the compressor, resulting in higher energy savings. These features contribute to the Tarrants’ desire to be environmentally responsible while also enjoying financial benefits.
As a young family with pets, ensuring good air quality and purification in the Tarrants’ dream home was a crucial consideration. They also wanted their holiday renters to have confidence in walking into a home with clean and pollutant-free air. Panasonic’s Z Series models incorporate the brand’s revolutionary nanoe™X air purification technology, which actively inhibits common indoor pollutants such as viruses, allergens, and mold. This technology creates a fresher, healthier, and more comfortable living environment, even when the home is unoccupied.
The nanoe™X air purification capability effectively cleans the air and surfaces within a room. It utilizes OH radicals encapsulated in water to inhibit microorganisms, including up to 99% of bacteria and viruses, while also reducing odors and inhibiting mold, allergens, and pollen. The feature can be operated independently, even without the cooling or heating function of the unit running.
Roisin Tarrant shared her thoughts on the benefits: “With a young baby and two dogs, it gives us peace of mind knowing that the air quality in our home is clean. Since we’re opening our home to guests for holidays, having this feature is excellent, especially when there are many people coming in and out of the property. I love that you can activate the nanoe™X air purification without running the heating or cooling element of the unit.”
But technological innovation doesn’t end there. The premium Z Series units seamlessly integrate built-in Wi-Fi and voice control, providing even greater convenience for the Tarrants and their guests. This integration works in harmony with their home automation system, including Google voice control.
Adhering to Panasonic’s premium design philosophy and prioritizing customer satisfaction, the Tarrants were highly impressed with the seamless installation process. All five units were fully installed in just a single day.
“The installation was fantastic! We had specific walls where we wanted the units mounted to accommodate our furniture and bedding arrangement, and it was effortlessly done. The units have a sleek design that beautifully complements the interior style of our home. They operate quietly and cool the spaces quickly,” shared Roisin Tarrant.
“We also made sure that none of the external units were mounted on the front of the house, purely for aesthetic reasons, and the installation team made sure they were discreetly placed around the side.”
Reggie Lam, the Product Marketing Manager for Air Conditioning at Panasonic Australia, commented on the process, emphasizing the key advantage of a split system over a ducted system: it requires far less invasive work on the home’s structure.
“A split system is easier to install because there’s no need for roof ducting. Even better, with a multi-split system, fewer outdoor units are needed as multiple indoor units can be connected to a single outdoor multi-split unit,” explained Reggie Lam.
