For a typical Singapore office, we recommend monthly aircon servicing, because the units run most of the working day. Quarterly (every 3 to 4 months) is our standard interval for homes and lighter use, and bi-monthly sits in between.
Key takeaways
- Frequency: monthly for offices that run the aircon daily. Our servicing page recommends every 3 to 4 months for standard use.
- Each visit: filter cleaning, coil and blower check, drain flush, refrigerant and gas level check, and an electrical and mechanical inspection.
- One-off or contract: one-off servicing is $50 for 1 unit, $40 per unit for 2 to 3 units and $35 per unit for 4 to 5 units. For 6 or more units, ask for a bulk rate. A contract fixes the schedule in advance. We do not publish contract prices, so ask for a written quote.
- After a repair or service: servicing carries a 90-day workmanship warranty. Repairs carry a 60-day quality warranty.
- Hours: Monday to Saturday, 08:30 to 22:00, so visits can be booked after office hours.
Why offices service more often than homes
An office aircon runs for more hours a day than a bedroom unit, and more people share the air it cleans. Our maintenance contract page recommends monthly or bi-monthly visits when a unit runs daily or the space has more dust or humidity. Our price page recommends monthly servicing for commercial offices.
What that means in practice:
- More running hours mean filters and coils collect dust faster.
- Downtime costs more. A failed unit in a meeting room or open-plan office affects every person using the space. Our contract page says commercial plans suit spaces that need “consistent climate control and high system uptime.”
- Warranty. Regular servicing helps preserve warranty coverage on newer units. Check each brand’s terms, because some require maintenance to keep the warranty valid.
Office aircon servicing schedule
We offer three intervals on our maintenance contracts. Choose by how hard the units work.
| Interval | Best for | Source of advice |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly | Offices and shops with the aircon on all working day; dusty or humid spaces | Our price page recommends it for commercial offices |
| Bi-monthly | Moderate daily use, or a mix of busy and quiet rooms | Our contract page offers it for daily use or higher dust and humidity |
| Quarterly (every 3 to 4 months) | Light use, such as a store room, a small meeting room or a seldom-used unit | Our standard servicing interval; “sufficient” for most Singapore homes |
A contract can be customised with more frequent visits, chemical wash add-ons and multi-location servicing. Schedules are set by environment and usage. We recommend booking visits at the end of the working day, as we are open until 22:00 Monday to Saturday.
Office aircon servicing checklist
Use this list to check what a visit covers. Our standard aircon servicing includes:
- ☐ Filter cleaning and sanitisation

- ☐ Drainage system flush

On a contract, ask for these in writing:

Chemical wash and gas top-up are not priced on our price page. The technician gives an upfront quote before work begins if they are needed.
Office aircon repair: what to prepare and ask
When an office unit stops cooling, a few facts speed up the visit. Have these ready when you call:
- The brand and model number from the indoor unit
- Which rooms or units are affected
- What you see: not cooling, water leaking, strange noise, error code or not switching on
- When it started, and whether it was serviced recently
- Access details: building rules, working hours and a contact on site
Questions to ask any repair company
- What is the fault, and what will the repair cost, in writing, before work starts?
- How soon can someone come? We offer same-day appointments.
- What warranty does the repair carry? Ours is 60 days.
- If the unit is old and keeps failing, is repair still worth it? See aircon repair vs replacement.

One-off servicing or a maintenance contract?
Choose a contract when you want the visits scheduled in advance. Choose one-off servicing when you have a few units, light use, or want to try a provider first.

|---|---|---|
| Schedule | You book each visit | Set in advance: monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly |
| Pricing | Published per unit: $50, $40 or $35 depending on number of units | Fixed rate for scheduled visits; figures not published |
| Coverage | Standard five-step servicing | Filter and coil cleaning, drainage checks, refrigerant pressure testing and electrical inspection |
| Extras | Chemical wash and gas top-up quoted by the technician before work | Some plans may include chemical cleaning, gas top-ups or priority emergency service. [CONFIRM: which plans include which] |
| Best for | A few units or light use | Offices, schools, clinics, shops and warehouses |
What to check in any contract quote
- The number of visits per year, and what happens if a visit is missed
- Which units and locations are covered, and any exclusions
- Whether parts, chemical wash and gas top-up are included or charged extra
- Response time for breakdowns, in writing
