“We had a fantastic experience working with Mark and the team at Chill Merchants.
They installed a large air con system in our workshop and office where several high temp machines run all day. These ducted units are big and heavy, and I wanted experienced tradesmen doing the job, and that's what we got.”

Common questions about working with Chill Merchants across Brisbane and South East Queensland.
Schools have been a core part of Chill Merchants since inception.
For over seven years, we’ve delivered installations, upgrades, ventilation improvements, and ongoing maintenance across primaryschools, high schools, and education facilities throughout South East Queensland.
Schools are not standard commercial sites. They have tighter access windows, higher duty of care expectations, and heavy ventilation demands due to occupancy density.
We understand how schools operate, and we plan around that.
Safety in schoolsis non-negotiable.
Our team understands that we are operating in environments where children are present. While we are not directly working with students, we operate with a heightened level of caution. Where required, personnel hold appropriate working-with-children clearances (Blue Cards), and site conduct is always professional.
Works are staged around bell times, school holidays, or defined access windows. Barricading, isolation, and clear communication withschool administration are part of the process.
Beyond physical safety, presentation matters. Our team understands they are visible representatives of the trade. We operate accordingly.
Schools typically have high occupancy density, many students in relatively small classroom areas.
Ventilation design and outside air intake are critical to maintaining indoor air quality and aligning with NCC and relevant Australian Standards, including AS 1668 where applicable.
Fresh air reduces CO₂ build-up, improves alertness, and supports a healthier indoor environment. Poor ventilation leads to comfort complaints, fatigue, and potential compliance risks.
In school environments, outside air design is not optional, it is fundamental.
Yes, and in many cases, this is preferred.
Major plant replacements, VRF upgrades, duct modifications, and ventilation improvements are often scheduled during holiday periods to minimise disruption to students and staff.
Where full shutdowns are required, they are carefully planned. In other cases, staged commissioning can allow partial areas to remain operational.
Schools operate on fixed calendars. Mechanical planning must respect that structure.
Yes, and this is wherelong-term value is created.
After installation or upgrades, structured servicing ensures systems remain compliant, efficient, and safe. In schools, this includes regular filter changes, coil cleaning, ventilation checks, and ensuring freshair systems continue to operate as designed.
Many education facilities operate under budget constraints, so structured maintenance helps avoid unexpected failures during peak summer months.
We don’t just install and walk away. Long-term service partnerships are common across our education clients.
If you have any questions about our services, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
We’re always happy to help!
