Air conditioning installation and servicing in Mossel Bay
Supply, installation and servicing of air conditioning for homes, offices and holiday lets, wired and certified by the same team.
An air conditioner is an electrical installation as much as a cooling appliance, and that is where most of the problems start. Units get plugged into whatever circuit is nearest, share a breaker with the kitchen, and trip the board every time the compressor kicks in. We install air conditioning the way an electrical contractor should: sized to the room, on its own correctly rated circuit, with a proper isolator, and certified.
For homes we fit midwall split units in bedrooms and living areas, and for offices, shops and guesthouses we plan multi-unit installations so the load is balanced across the board rather than piled onto one phase. Because we do the electrical work too, there is no gap between the installer and the electrician, and no argument about whose fault a tripping breaker is.
We also service and repair what is already on the wall. Units lose gas slowly, filters clog, and a machine that has not been touched in three summers works twice as hard for half the cooling. Regassing, servicing and filter cleaning before the season keeps holiday homes and guesthouses in Hartenbos, Dana Bay and along the coast ready for their busiest weeks.

Common questions
Does an air conditioner need its own circuit?+
Yes. An air conditioner draws a heavy surge when the compressor starts, and sharing a circuit with sockets or a kitchen is what causes nuisance tripping. We install a dedicated, correctly rated circuit and isolator, which is also what most manufacturers require to honour the warranty.
How often should an air conditioner be serviced?+
Once a year for a home, and before every season for a holiday let or guesthouse. Filters clog and gas pressure drops gradually, so the unit gets quietly less effective and more expensive to run long before it actually fails.
Can you fix an air conditioner that trips the power?+
Usually, yes. Tripping is often an electrical fault rather than a problem with the unit: an undersized or shared circuit, a failing isolator, or earth leakage from moisture. We test the circuit and the unit together and tell you which it is before quoting.
