FAQ

Common Questions

Everything you need to know before booking or buying.

How much does aircon installation cost in Johannesburg? +

A standard back-to-back wall split installation (up to 3m piping, 9000–24000 BTU) starts from R2,700 incl. VAT. A 30,000–36,000 BTU installation starts from R2,850 incl. VAT. Commercial and ducted installations are quoted per site visit. All quotes are written, itemised, and obligation-free.

How do I know what size aircon I need? +

As a general rule: up to 15m² needs a 9000 BTU unit; 15–25m² needs 12000 BTU; 25–35m² needs 18000 BTU; 35–50m² needs 24000 BTU. However, ceiling height, insulation, window size, and sun exposure all affect the calculation. Our technicians do a free on-site thermal load assessment to confirm the right size before any purchase.

How often should my aircon be serviced? +

Residential units: every 6–12 months. Commercial and industrial units: every 3–6 months due to heavier usage. Regular servicing keeps the unit running at peak efficiency, extends its lifespan, maintains air quality, and prevents expensive emergency breakdowns. We offer service contracts for businesses requiring scheduled visits.

Do you offer a price match guarantee? +

Yes — unconditionally. If you find the exact same product (same brand, same model, same BTU) at a lower price anywhere else, send us the quote and we will match or beat it. No negotiation required. We want to be your go-to supplier, not lose you to a competitor over a few hundred rand.

What brands do you install? +

We primarily install Samsung (our preferred brand, of which we are an authorised dealer), but we supply and install all major brands: LG, Daikin, Alliance, Jet Air, York, and Infinity. We can also install units purchased elsewhere — simply supply the unit and we handle the installation to manufacturer spec.

Do you cover emergency call-outs? +

Yes. We respond to emergency breakdowns 24/7 across Gauteng. For businesses with critical cooling requirements (server rooms, cold storage, medical facilities), we also offer priority service agreements that guarantee response times. Call us directly on 082 952 6966 for immediate assistance.

Aircon Installations

Professional installation of every system type — cleanly executed, correctly positioned, built to last.

Midwall Split Units

The most popular residential and light-commercial solution. The system comprises two sections: an indoor unit (quiet, decorative) and an outdoor unit housing the compressor. Ideally installed on an outside wall to minimise piping runs and cost. The outdoor unit is positioned as high as practically possible, in a well-ventilated area, away from direct rain exposure and neighbouring properties.

Cassette Split Units

The premium choice for medium to large commercial spaces. Installed flush into the centre of a ceiling, cassette units distribute air evenly in four directions across the room. All piping and cabling are concealed within the ceiling void — accessible only through your existing trapdoor. The result is a sleek, barely visible installation that keeps the aesthetics of your space intact.

Ducted Hide-Away Split Units

The ultimate stealth solution. The entire aircon unit is hidden within the roof void — the only visible evidence is a ceiling diffuser and return air filter frame. Ideal for architecturally sensitive environments, high-end residential, and open-plan commercial spaces where aesthetics cannot be compromised. Piping, cabling, and ducting are all fully concealed.

Aircon Size Guide

Choose the right capacity for your space. Undersizing leads to poor performance. Oversizing wastes money and causes humidity problems.

BTU & Kilowatt Reference Table

Use the table below as a starting guide. For accurate sizing, contact us for a free thermal load calculation.

Room Size (m²)	BTU	Kilowatts (kW)	Recommended Unit	Ideal For
Up to 15 m²	9,000 BTU	2.6 kW	9000 BTU Split	Small bedroom
15 – 25 m²	12,000 BTU	3.5 kW	12000 BTU Split	Main bedroom, study
25 – 35 m²	18,000 BTU	5.3 kW	18000 BTU Split	Large bedroom, dining room
35 – 50 m²	24,000 BTU	7.0 kW	24000 BTU Split	Open-plan living area
50 – 70 m²	30,000 BTU	8.8 kW	Cassette / Ducted	Large open-plan, office
70 – 100 m²	36,000 BTU	10.5 kW	Cassette / Ducted	Conference room, retail
100 m²+	Custom	Multi-zone	VRF / Ducted System	Commercial / Industrial

Factors That Affect Sizing

Number of windows and their sun exposure
Ceiling height (standard vs. double-volume)
Insulation quality of walls and roof
Number of occupants using the space simultaneously
Heat-generating equipment (computers, kitchen appliances)
Orientation of the room (north-facing vs. south-facing)

Interesting Facts

Things worth knowing about air conditioning — efficiency, health, history, and maintenance.

🌡️

Inverter vs. Non-Inverter

An inverter aircon can be up to 40% more energy-efficient than a conventional non-inverter unit. It adjusts compressor speed to match the room's demand rather than cycling on and off repeatedly — meaning lower electricity bills and longer compressor life.

🧹

Regular Cleaning Matters

A dirty filter forces the unit to work harder, increasing electricity consumption by up to 15%. It also reduces the quality of air in the room and can cause ice build-up on the evaporator coil. Clean or replace filters every 3–6 months for optimal performance.

💧

Dehumidification

Air conditioners remove moisture from the air as part of the cooling process. This dehumidification effect improves comfort significantly in Johannesburg's summer months — reducing that sticky, muggy feeling even before the temperature drops noticeably.

📅

When Was AC Invented?

Modern air conditioning was invented by Willis Carrier in 1902 — originally designed to control humidity in a printing plant, not for human comfort. Today, the global AC market is worth over $120 billion annually and is the single largest use of electricity in buildings worldwide.

🔋

Correct Sizing Saves Money

An oversized unit cools the room too quickly without running long enough to dehumidify properly — leaving the air feeling cold and clammy. An undersized unit runs continuously, struggling to reach target temperature and wearing out faster. Correct sizing is the most important decision you'll make.

🌿

R32 Refrigerant

Modern air conditioners use R32 refrigerant, which has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) 68% lower than the older R410A refrigerant. If you're still running an older R22 unit, upgrading to a modern R32 inverter system isn't just cheaper to run — it's better for the planet.
