Frequently Asked Questions About AC Installation
We answer our customers' most common questions.
How long does it take to install an air conditioner?
A typical residential installation (mini split) takes between 3 and 6 hours, depending on the complexity of the site. Commercial or larger projects may take longer.
Do I need permits to install air conditioning in Costa Rica?
It depends on the type of project and the municipality. We'll confirm this during your estimate, based on the specifics of your case.
Can I install the equipment myself?
We don't recommend it. Installation involves handling refrigerant, electrical connections, and heat load calculations; an incorrect installation can damage the equipment or void the manufacturer's warranty.
How often should I service my equipment?
We recommend every 6 months for residential use and every 3 to 4 months for commercial use. See our preventive maintenance guide for more details.
