Specialist Services
New split-system installation, replacement or a unit that is not working properly: AB Electrical handles the electrical and refrigeration work through an appropriately qualified in-house team. We assess the room, unit positions and existing supply before recommending the work.
The right setup depends on the room, unit positions, drainage, pipe routes and available power supply. AB’s appropriately qualified in-house team handles the refrigeration and electrical work for split-system installations.
For a replacement, we assess the existing unit positions, connections and supply rather than assuming everything can be reused. A new room, extension or renovation may need a different arrangement. We explain the installation work and any circuit or switchboard changes before it is booked.
A problem may be in the air conditioner, its isolator, the wiring or the circuit protection. Tripping does not prove that a circuit is too small, and replacing the unit may not fix an electrical fault.
We test the equipment and installation to identify the cause, then explain the repair needed or whether replacement should be considered. Do not repeatedly reset a tripping breaker or open equipment covers.
You deal with the same electrician throughout your electrical work. If a fault is caused by our installation or repair workmanship, we put it right at no extra charge.
AB Electrical handles air-conditioning installation, dedicated circuits, switchboard upgrades and fault diagnosis. Our appropriately qualified in-house team carries out the electrical and refrigeration work.
If a fault is caused by our installation or repair workmanship, we return and put it right at no extra charge. The installation is tested and commissioned before handover.
Planned AC work is quoted in writing, with circuit requirements and any switchboard work included in the scope before you commit.
AC installations often require a dedicated circuit and sometimes a switchboard upgrade to handle the additional load. AB Electrical assesses the board during the quote visit and includes any upgrade work in the scope.
Our appropriately qualified in-house team carries out the electrical and refrigeration work. For planned installation or replacement, the written quote identifies the equipment and work included.
Discuss heating and cooling needs, unit positions, pipe routes, drainage and access.
Establish the circuit, isolation and any switchboard work needed for the selected system.
Complete the agreed unit installation, refrigeration and electrical connections.
Test and commission the installation, then explain operation and controls at handover.
These indicative ranges cover the listed electrical tasks. They are not prices for a complete air-conditioning installation. A whole-installation quote needs to identify the unit, electrical and refrigeration work, access requirements and any removal work included.
