Well another year, another air conditioning contract.
I decided to renew with the same company that I used previously last year (Atlantic Engrg & Air Con Services), and thought it would simply be a quick maintenance clean and inspection. Only to realise that there was a fault with one of the units.
It appeared that there was a warning light showing, and after the maintenance inspection, they advised me that the required work was a chemical clean then refill the gas. If this doesn’t resolve the fault, then the PCB would need to be replaced. I checked with the landlord and his agent, and they advised me that the cleaning and gas-refilling was my responsibility and cost, but if the unit had to be repaired / parts replaced, then this would be borne by the landlord. The quote came back as S$250 chemical clean + S$70 gas refill – ouch! I had no choice but to settle this.
In addition to this, the annual maintenance cost was S$180 (luckily this was the same price as last year) – again, I have to pay this.
So unfortunately, it was quite an expensive maintenance service this quarter 🙁 Hopefully the next few servicing won’t cost this much!
