Common AC faults in Dubai, and what usually fixes them
Capacitor failure
The most common summer breakdown. Heat ages start and run capacitors; the outdoor fan or compressor hums but will not start. A quick part swap.
Blocked drain
Water dripping from the ceiling grille or the indoor unit. Dust and slime block the condensate line. Usually cleared on the spot.
Refrigerant leak
Ice on the pipes, hissing, or cool-not-cold air. The leak is found and repaired, then the gas refilled.
Thermostat or sensor
The unit stops early or runs forever. Common on older wall controllers and after power cuts.
Fan motor wear
Grinding or rattling, and weak airflow. Blower and outdoor fan motors work hard here and wear out.
PCB damage
The unit is dead or shows an error code. Power surges and heat damage control boards; replacement boards are quoted separately.
Who pays for the repair?
In rented homes, major AC repairs - compressors, motors, boards, leaks - are usually the landlord's responsibility, while routine cleaning is often the tenant's. It depends on your tenancy contract. If the landlord is paying, the diagnosis report from our technician gives them the fault and the quote in writing.

The diagnosis visit costs AED 81.88. The repair itself depends on the fault and parts; the technician quotes it before starting, and you can decline.
Technicians carry common parts like capacitors, contactors and drain fittings. Brand-specific boards and motors are ordered and fitted on a second visit.
Error codes are brand-specific. Note the code and the brand when you book - it helps the technician arrive with the right part.
We repair the fan coil unit inside your apartment - fan motor, thermostat, valve actuator and drain. Problems with the building's chilled-water supply go to building management.
The technician finds the fault and quotes the repair before any work. The visit costs AED 81.88, and nothing more is charged unless you approve the repair.

Every three to four months for units that run all year, and before the summer peak at the latest. Homes near construction or the desert edge collect dust faster and may need it more often.
