Air Conditioning

Why is it important to have your air conditioning installed by a qualified company with years of experience?

Choosing the right air conditioner for the conditions is the first good decision to make to keep it working properly. However, the most important decision is its quality and professional installation. There are several reasons why this part is crucial after purchasing an air conditioner:

1. Construction interventions and pairing of units

As the outdoor unit has to be connected to the indoor one, several structural interventions are needed that will affect the operation of the air conditioning itself. It is necessary to properly install the air conditioning and the pipes that carry the gas or. refrigerant, where the tightness of these pipes needs to be tested afterwards. And last but not least, the fitting of the indoor unit, which should be done properly and aesthetically. All of these actions will be reflected in the operation of the air conditioning unit in the coming months. In case of unprofessional intervention, it is more than likely that the unit will not work properly and this will have an impact on your electricity consumption.

2. Air conditioning installation

The installation of air conditioning units requires a lot of professional and specific tools that are not part of the normal household. Improper installation can cause your air conditioning unit to be so damaged that it cannot be repaired. The entire operation of the air conditioning is connected to the electric current for which it is necessary to have an electrical minimum or refrigeration certificate and certification because the circuit itself contains a coolant, which in some cases is flammable.

3. Safe start-up of the air conditioner

As mentioned earlier, the air conditioner needs to be plugged into the mains. Professional installers know exactly how to safely connect your equipment. It doesn’t take an expert to realise that unprofessional tampering with an electrical circuit can cause injury, short circuit or fire.

4. Warranty

One of the most important benefits you get when installed by a professional is a warranty. In the event of any malfunction, you have the option of calling a service technician who will advise you and get the air conditioner back in operation as part of the installation price. In case of unprofessional installation, you have to pay for all the interventions anew and the repair costs can exceed the initial investment in a professional installation several times over.

5. Air conditioning service

Since air conditioners should be serviced once a year with regular use, with professional installation you not only have a warranty on the unit itself but also a guarantee that the equipment will be serviced properly and professionally. It often happens that in case of unqualified installations the customer no longer has the possibility to have the service work done by an unqualified installer.
