Aircon FAQ – Installation (Kuala Lumpur)

Aircon installation in Kuala Lumpur requires proper sizing, correct piping layout, drainage planning, and safe electrical connection.
Incorrect installation often leads to poor cooling performance, water leakage, high electricity bills, and frequent breakdowns.

Below are the most common questions customers ask before installing a new air conditioner in apartments, condominiums, and landed houses in Kuala Lumpur.

How much does aircon installation cost in Kuala Lumpur?

Installation cost depends on the aircon type, horsepower (HP), piping length, trunking requirements, drainage routing, and electrical work needed. Final pricing is usually confirmed after checking the site conditions and unit specifications.

How do I choose the correct aircon size (HP) for my room?

The correct HP depends on room size, ceiling height, sunlight exposure, number of occupants, and usage pattern. Choosing an undersized unit causes weak cooling, while oversized units waste electricity and reduce comfort.

What is included in a standard aircon installation?

Standard installation usually includes mounting the indoor unit, installing the outdoor condenser, copper piping connection, insulation, drainage piping, basic wiring connection, vacuuming, gas pressure check, and performance testing.

How long does aircon installation take?

Most wall-mounted aircon installations are completed within a few hours. More complex installations involving long piping routes, concealed trunking, or additional electrical work may take longer.

Is a site inspection required before installation?

A site inspection is recommended for new installations or non-standard layouts. It helps confirm piping routes, drainage slope, outdoor unit placement, and electrical capacity, reducing the risk of installation issues.

Can you install an aircon unit purchased by the customer?

Yes. Customer-supplied aircon units can be installed as long as the model is suitable for the space. Proper installation procedures are followed to ensure performance and reliability.
