Split AC cleaning company in Jeddah
An air conditioner draws in room air and passes it over a cold, damp evaporator, so dust sticks to it and mould grows. The result: weaker cooling, a smell, dripping water and a higher electricity bill. Cleaning restores the cooling, and starts from SAR 33 per unit.
- Power off, with wall and furniture covered.
- Filters: removed, washed and dried.
- Evaporator: washed with a dedicated cleaner and water, with a bag collecting the dirty water.
- Fan and air path: built-up mould removed.
- Drain hose: cleared so water does not drip indoors.
- Start-up and check: cooling measured after cleaning.
Washing the outdoor unit
The outdoor unit throws heat out through the condenser fins. Jeddah’s dust and salty humidity clog those fins, so the compressor works harder, overheats and may fail. It is washed with pressurised water from the inside out, and the fan and connections are checked.
Signs an AC needs cleaning or maintenance
| Sign | Likely cause | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| Weak cooling | Dirty filters and evaporator, or low refrigerant | Cleaning, then a refrigerant check |
| Water dripping indoors | A blocked drain hose | Clearing the hose and cleaning the tray |
| A smell on start-up | Mould on the evaporator | Washing and disinfection |
| Loud noise | A dirty or unbalanced fan | Cleaning and tightening |
| Ice on the pipes | Low refrigerant or poor airflow | Leak check and recharge, or cleaning |
| Runs, then cuts out | A clogged outdoor unit or an electrical fault | Outdoor wash and component check |
| A higher electricity bill | The AC running longer to cool | Regular cleaning |
AC refrigerant recharge in Jeddah
Refrigerant does not run low in a sound air conditioner: the circuit is sealed. If it is low there is a leak, and recharging without fixing the leak means another recharge within months. So the leak is checked first, and the gas is then charged in the type the maker specifies and to the right weight. A recharge starts from SAR 138.
AC maintenance and repair in Jeddah
- Compressor: capacitor and contactor checked and replaced.
- Fan motors: indoor and outdoor.
- Control board and sensors.
- Water leaks and drainage.
- Brazing of refrigerant leaks.
Repair starts from SAR 55 for labour, with any spare part added if the fault needs one, and you are told its price before it is fitted.
AC removal and installation in Jeddah
Correct removal starts by pumping the refrigerant down into the outdoor unit so it is not lost, and correct installation ends by vacuuming the air out of the pipes before the gas is released. Skipping these two steps leaves a unit that cools poorly. Removing and moving a unit starts from SAR 138, installation from SAR 58.
- Copper pipe runs and their insulation.
- Fixing the outdoor unit on a bracket, with a fall on the drain hose.
- Vacuuming before start-up.
- Leak and cooling test.
Window AC cleaning and maintenance
A window AC is a single unit holding both evaporator and condenser, and it cannot be cleaned well in the wall. It is taken out, washed fully on both sides, then refitted with the seal around it made good. It starts from SAR 37.
Central, concealed and cabinet AC maintenance
| Type | Where it is used | What its service covers |
|---|---|---|
| Central (ducted) | Villas and offices | Units, filters, ducts and diffusers |
| Concealed | Above false ceilings | Access through the service hatch, with evaporator and tray washed |
| Cabinet (floor-standing) | Majlis rooms and halls | Indoor and outdoor wash, from SAR 185 |
| Cassette | Shops and offices | Panel removed, evaporator and drain pump washed |
How often should an AC be cleaned in Jeddah?
An air conditioner in Jeddah runs for most months of the year, in dusty, humid air. Filters are washed every month, which the householder can do, and a full clean is due every 3 to 6 months, best done before summer.
| Task | How often | Who does it |
|---|---|---|
| Washing filters | Monthly | The householder |
| Full clean of both units | Every 3 to 6 months | The technician |
| Refrigerant and electrical check | Once a year | The technician |
| Central AC ducts | Every one to two years | The technician |
How to wash an AC filter yourself
- Switch off the AC and open the cover of the indoor unit.
- Slide out the filters gently.
- Wash them in lukewarm water from the clean side to the dirty side.
- Dry them in the shade fully before refitting.
AC maintenance contracts for premises
Offices, shops, mosques and schools are served on an annual contract: regular cleaning visits, priority for faults and a lower price per unit than a one-off visit. The price is set by the number and types of units.
