How much does aircon repair cost?

It depends on the fault. The on-site diagnosis is $30/trip, waived if you proceed with the repair. We quote the specific fix after diagnosis — no ballpark figures over the phone, because the cost depends on what we find.

Do you charge if you cannot fix the problem?

The $30 assessment fee covers the visit and diagnosis. If the unit is beyond repair or the fix is not cost-effective, we explain why and you only pay the assessment fee.

Can you repair the same day?

Simple faults with standard parts can often be resolved on the first visit. If parts need ordering, we confirm lead time and schedule a return. We do not carry every part — but common ones like capacitors, thermistors, and PCB boards are usually available.

Should I service my aircon before calling for repair?

If the unit has not been serviced recently, a service visit often resolves the issue — especially for weak airflow, mild smell, or minor leaks. If the problem is electrical, mechanical, or involves refrigerant loss, a repair visit is the right starting point.

Do you repair all brands?

Yes. We work on Daikin, Mitsubishi, Panasonic, LG, Samsung, Midea, Toshiba, Fujitsu, and most other residential and light-commercial brands available in Singapore.

Aircon Repair in Singapore

We diagnose before we fix. Every repair starts with testing to identify the actual fault — not assumptions, not guesswork. You get a clear explanation and a quote before any work begins.

How Repair Works

Every repair follows the same sequence: diagnose first, explain the findings, quote the fix, then proceed only with approval. No surprises.

1. On-site diagnosis

We test the unit systematically to isolate the fault. The assessment fee is waived if you proceed with the quoted repair.

2. Explain and quote

We explain what we found, what needs to be done, and what it will cost. No jargon, no pressure. You decide whether to proceed.

3. Fix with approval

Work only begins after you approve the quote. If parts need ordering, we confirm lead time and schedule the return visit.

What We Repair

Component-level diagnosis and repair for all major aircon parts. Each type of repair targets a specific system — refrigerant, electrical, mechanical, or drainage.

Compressor repair

The compressor circulates refrigerant. Faults show as no cooling, the outdoor unit not starting, or tripping the breaker. We test electrically and mechanically before recommending repair or replacement.

Fan motor repair

Both indoor and outdoor units have fan motors. Symptoms include no airflow, grinding noise, or intermittent operation. We check windings, bearings, and capacitors.

PCB repair

The printed circuit board controls the unit's logic — startup sequences, temperature regulation, error handling. Faults show as error codes, erratic behaviour, or the unit not responding to the remote.

Thermistor repair

Temperature sensors that tell the PCB what the room and coil temperatures are. Drift or failure causes poor temperature control, short cycling, or error codes.

Gas leak detection & repair

Refrigerant loss means reduced cooling. We pressure-test the system to locate the leak, then repair the joint or section. Top-up alone without fixing the leak is a temporary measure.

Drainage repair

Water leaks from the indoor unit are usually drainage faults — blocked drain pan, cracked tray, or misaligned piping. We trace the path and fix the obstruction or defect.

Expansion valve repair

The expansion valve meters refrigerant flow into the evaporator. A stuck or failed valve causes uneven cooling, icing, or hissing sounds.

Coil replacement

Evaporator or condenser coils degrade from corrosion, physical damage, or refrigerant leaks. Replacement is the last resort when cleaning or patching is no longer viable.

Gas Top-Up

Low refrigerant reduces cooling. But topping up without checking for leaks is a temporary fix. We always test the system pressure first to determine whether a top-up alone is appropriate or whether there is an underlying leak.

R22

Older refrigerant found in units installed before 2015. Being phased out globally due to ozone impact. Still serviceable, but availability is increasingly limited.

R410A

Current standard for most residential split systems in Singapore. Operates at higher pressure than R22, so the two are not interchangeable. Most units installed from 2015 onward use this.

R32

Newer refrigerant with better energy efficiency and lower environmental impact than R410A. Found in recent inverter models from Daikin, Panasonic, and others.

What We Check During Diagnosis

A systematic check that covers electrical, mechanical, refrigerant, and airflow systems. The goal is to isolate the root cause, not just confirm the symptom.

Electrical — voltage, current draw, capacitor health, PCB signals
Refrigerant — pressure levels, leak detection, gas type identification
Mechanical — compressor operation, fan motor bearings, vibration
Airflow — coil condition, blower performance, duct integrity
Drainage — drain pan, piping, water flow path
Controls — remote response, sensor readings, error code interpretation

When to Repair vs Replace

Not every fault is worth fixing. We give you an honest assessment based on the unit's age, condition, and the cost of repair relative to replacement.

Scenario	Likely recommendation
Unit under 5 years, single fault	Repair
Compressor failure on 8+ year unit	Consider replacement
Multiple recurring faults	Replacement usually more cost-effective
Refrigerant leak on corroded piping	Depends on extent — we assess on-site
PCB failure, part still available	Repair
