AC cleaning in Al Hamra

We fix a sealed protective bag under the indoor unit before any pressure washing begins. The bag collects all the wash water and channels it away from your wall and furniture. This step is not optional in how we work.

In most cases the smell goes once the evaporator, blower wheel and drain pan are washed with a sanitising agent. If the smell comes from very old build-up or a drain line problem, we diagnose the cause on site and tell you exactly what is needed.

Heavy dust and salt carried by sea air collect between the condenser fins and block airflow. This raises condensing pressure and makes the compressor work harder than it was designed to. Cleaning the outdoor coil regularly keeps the compressor performing as it should and extends its life.

Yes, a window unit needs similar work: filter, evaporator, blower wheel and drain pan, plus the outdoor coil built into the same casing. The difference is in how it is opened and accessed, which the technician works out after seeing where the unit is installed.

Dripping usually comes from a blocked drain pan or a drain line that does not slope correctly. Cleaning the pan and checking that the line has the right fall resolves the problem in many cases. If the cause is different, the technician diagnoses it on site and explains exactly what is needed.

Humidity affects all units, but those directly exposed to sea air and salt corrode and build up algae faster, especially outdoor units on open roofs.

We use safe equipment and high safety standards for rooftop work, but confirm the roof is in good condition and safe before the visit, and tell us of any hazards or restrictions.

Yes, continued salt and sea wind exposure causes gradual corrosion of the unit's metals, and regular external cleaning and inspection of metal parts reduces corrosion and extends service life.

Clear obstacles and garden furniture from around the outdoor units, tell us each unit's location and access ease, and ensure there is adequate space nearby to park close.
