Salon Air Conditioning & Ventilation Solutions

Climate Control for Hair and Beauty Salons

Air conditioning systems regulate indoor temperature and humidity while circulating filtered air throughout the salon. In areas with high heat output or strong product odours, ventilation systems support fresh air supply and removal of stale air.

How It Works

How Salon Air Conditioning Supports Daily Operations

Salon air conditioning works by regulating indoor temperature while circulating and filtering air across the space. Modern systems are designed to operate quietly and maintain stable conditions even during busy periods.

In many salons, air conditioning works alongside ventilation to support fresh air movement, manage odours, and reduce the build-up of heat and humidity. This combined approach helps maintain comfort, supports hygiene, and improves the overall client experience. Choosing the most suitable air conditioning system depends on how the salon is used on a daily basis. Factors such as floor layout, number of styling stations, treatment rooms, and heat-generating equipment all influence system selection.

Benefits

Choosing the Right Air Conditioning System for Your Salon

Energy Efficiency

Salons operate for long hours and require systems that perform efficiently without excessive energy use.

Space and Layout

The number of styling stations, treatment rooms, ceiling height, and airflow pathways all influence system design.

Low Noise Levels

Quiet operation is essential in client-facing environments to maintain a relaxed atmosphere.

Air Quality and Ventilation Support

Air conditioning systems help circulate and filter indoor air. Where required, ventilation systems support fresh airflow and removal of stale air and odours.

System Reliability

Consistent performance reduces disruption and helps salons operate smoothly during busy periods.

Maintenance and Servicing

Regular servicing supports system efficiency, air quality, and long-term reliability.

How Air Conditioning and Ventilation Work in Salons

Air conditioning systems regulate indoor temperature and humidity while circulating filtered air throughout the salon. In areas with high heat output or strong product odours, ventilation systems support fresh air supply and removal of stale air.

Used together, air conditioning and ventilation help maintain:

This combined approach is particularly important in salons with open styling floors and enclosed treatment rooms.

If you’re planning air conditioning for a beauty salon or treatment space, speaking with our team early can help you select the right system and avoid unnecessary expense.

 

Commercial systems in salons should be inspected at least twice a year — typically before the main cooling and heating seasons. Routine servicing includes cleaning filters, checking refrigerant levels, testing electrical components, and ensuring ventilation pathways are clear. Regular maintenance improves performance and prolongs system life.

 

Yes. Air conditioning controls temperature and humidity, while ventilation ensures fresh air replaces stale or odorous air. In salons, ventilation helps remove chemical odours, moisture and airborne particles, supporting comfort, hygiene and indoor air quality. Used together, they create a healthier and more comfortable salon environment.

 

Costs vary depending on salon size, system type and complexity of installation. Smaller salons with single units (e.g. wall‑mounted) generally cost less than multi‑split or integrated systems. Larger open plan salons or those requiring bespoke ductwork will have higher installation costs. Getting a site survey and tailored quote is essential for accurate pricing.

 

Modern systems are designed for energy efficiency. Ratings like SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) or EER (Energy Efficiency Ratio) indicate efficiency — higher ratings mean better performance with lower energy use. Energy‑efficient units help salons reduce running costs, especially when operating long hours.

 

Yes. Air conditioning systems with quality filters (e.g. HEPA or activated carbon) can reduce dust, odours, pollen and fine particles. Combined with ventilation that supplies fresh air and removes stale air, salons benefit from improved indoor air quality, which supports hygiene and client comfort.

 

Salons are usually kept comfortably between 20°C and 24°C. This range supports client comfort without overworking the system. Humidity levels between 40% and 60% relative humidity are generally considered comfortable and help prevent condensation and mould growth.
