What's included in our AC servicing
Every AC service covers both the indoor and outdoor units, followed by checks to confirm the AC is cooling as it should. If we notice a problem — such as a weak capacitor, low gas or a damaged drain pipe — we explain it and give you the option to fix it.

Signs your AC needs servicing
Cooling has dropped
The room takes longer to cool, or the AC runs constantly.
Weak airflow
Air from the vents feels weak even on high fan speed.
Water dripping
Blocked drain lines cause water to drip from the indoor unit.
New noises
Rattling, buzzing or clicking that wasn't there before.
Musty smell
Dust and moisture on the coil can make the air smell stale.
Higher electricity bills
A dirty AC works harder and uses more power.
How often should you service your AC?
Pune's hot, dry months put the most load on air conditioners, so the best time to service is before summer starts. As a general guide:
- Homes with normal use: at least once a year, ideally before summer.
- Bedrooms used every night, offices and shops: every three to four months.
- Filters: rinse every two to three weeks during heavy use.
For multiple ACs or business premises, an AC maintenance contract (AMC) schedules servicing visits for you, so nothing is missed.

AC servicing FAQs
Does AC servicing include gas refilling?
No. Servicing covers cleaning and checks. During the service we check whether cooling and pressures are normal; if the gas is low, we tell you, look for the leak and quote for the repair and refilling separately.
How long does an AC service take?
A general service usually takes under an hour per unit. Deep cleaning, where the indoor unit is opened further and the coil is washed thoroughly, takes longer. Older or heavily used units may need more time.
Should a new AC be serviced?
Yes. Even a new AC collects dust on its filters and coil. Clean the filters regularly and book the first full service within about a year of installation, or sooner if it runs for long hours.
What do I need to arrange for the service?
Clear access to the indoor and outdoor units, a nearby power point and a water source. For outdoor units on balconies or ledges, let us know in advance so we bring suitable equipment.
