Installation Process

How long does an installation take?

The timeline depends on the complexity of the system:

  • Single Split System: Typically 4 to 6 hours.
  • Multi-Split System: Usually 1 to 2 days.
  • Commercial Central Air: 3 to 5 days or more depending on ductwork requirements.

We will provide a detailed timeline during the site survey.

Do I need a permit for installation?

In Berlin, installing an air conditioning unit often requires notification to the local authorities, especially for split systems with external condensers. Primex Installation handles all necessary paperwork and regulatory compliance as part of our service package.

Can you install AC in rented apartments?

Yes, but you typically need permission from your landlord. We offer "tenant-friendly" solutions that minimize structural changes, such as portable units or split systems where piping can be discreetly routed to a balcony without drilling through external walls if possible.

Maintenance & Repairs

How often should I service my AC unit?

We recommend a professional service at least once a year, preferably before the summer season begins. Regular maintenance includes cleaning filters, checking refrigerant levels, and inspecting electrical components to ensure efficiency and longevity.

Do you offer emergency repair services?

Yes, we offer priority repair services for breakdowns. While same-day service is subject to technician availability, we strive to respond to urgent cooling failures as quickly as possible to restore your comfort.

Pricing & Quotes

Is the quote really free?

Yes, we provide free, no-obligation quotes for standard installations. A technician will visit your property to assess your cooling needs, measure the space, and recommend the most efficient system for your budget.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept cash, bank transfers, and all major credit/debit cards. Payment is typically due upon completion of the installation work.
