When should I inspect my noisy AC?« Back to Previous Page

The AC in my apartment seems to be making strange noises lately, and I’ve heard from a few neighbors that their units were checked by certified professionals. After living here for 2 years and just noticing this issue, should I hire someone now or wait until it gets worse?

When should I inspect my noisy AC?

Well, it's essential to address the issue as soon as you notice any strange noises from your air conditioning unit. In Dubai and across the UAE, environmental regulations require regular maintenance of HVAC systems to ensure they operate efficiently and safely. The noise could be a sign that your AC needs attention, even if it hasn't worsened significantly over 2 years.

Typically, in such cases, I'd recommend engaging certified HVAC professionals for an inspection. A professional can diagnose the issue accurately and provide appropriate solutions. Considering you've heard similar issues from neighbors, it's prudent to act now rather than waiting for a more serious problem to arise.

In Dubai, costs for inspecting your AC unit might vary depending on the company and the extent of services required. On average, expect to pay around AED 500 to AED 1000 for a basic inspection that includes a thorough check of components like compressors, fans, and filters. Should repairs be needed, additional costs would apply.

For instance, if your AC needs cleaning or has minor issues such as worn-out parts, the repair bill could range from AED 200 to AED 500 on top of the inspection fee. More complex problems like a compressor failure might require replacement, which can be significantly more expensive.

It's crucial to choose certified and licensed HVAC technicians who comply with local regulations. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice operate under strict guidelines ensuring their expertise meets industry standards.
