Aircon Servicing & Repair in Puchong

A chemical wash cleans the coil, blower, and drain pan in place. A chemical overhaul dismantles the indoor unit completely, soaks the parts, checks bearings and seals, and reassembles it. Choose an overhaul when a wash has not fixed persistent leaks, noise, or weak cooling, or for units neglected for years.

Pricing depends on the service depth: a basic clean-and-check per unit is the cheapest, a chemical wash costs roughly double, and a full overhaul double again. Multi-unit discounts are standard.

Dirty coils and filters make the compressor work harder for the same cooling — energy use can rise 15-30% before you notice weaker airflow. A failing capacitor or low refrigerant has the same effect. A service that restores the unit to spec usually pays for itself in a hot season.

Refrigerant does not get used up — if the level is low, there is a leak. A proper job is leak detection, repair, then regas, which costs several times a plain top-up but stops the problem recurring. Be wary of any technician who suggests routine annual top-ups.

You can safely wash or replace filters monthly, keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and debris, and wipe the indoor casing. Anything involving the refrigerant circuit, electrical components, or coil chemicals should be left to a certified technician — refrigerant handling is legally restricted in most countries.

If you run multiple units daily, yes — contracts usually price each visit 15-30% below one-off rates, include priority booking during heatwaves, and some include minor parts. For a single, lightly used unit, paying per visit is usually cheaper.

Normal service is RM50-RM90 per unit (bundles cheaper per unit), chemical wash RM130-RM200 per unit, and chemical overhaul RM250-RM400 per unit. Gas top-up, when genuinely needed, adds RM50-RM150 for R32/R410A depending on amount.

Every 3 months for daily-use bedrooms and living rooms; haze season (usually mid-year) clogs filters faster, so check filters monthly during haze episodes. A chemical wash every 12-18 months keeps cooling strong in Malaysian humidity.
