Central AC installation in Abhur Al Janoubiyah

We calculate the thermal load for each zone based on its area, ceiling height, number of external openings, orientation and how it will be used. In Jeddah the sun's effect on west-facing facades is significant, and high humidity goes into the calculation. We choose the unit size after this calculation, not before.

We fabricate round and rectangular ducts in our own workshop from G90 galvanised sheet or aluminium sheet depending on what the project needs. This lets us cut ducts to the exact site dimensions and fit them tightly, avoiding ill-fitting sections that leak air and raise electricity consumption.

We use Mueller copper in runs of up to 30 metres without welded joints, which reduces potential leak points. If a run exceeds that, the survey determines whether the outdoor unit position needs rethinking or whether the refrigerant charge needs adjustment according to the type shown on the unit's nameplate.

Yes, and it is settled at the design stage. Each floor can have its own unit, or the network can be split into zones with dampers and a thermostat in each, so you do not cool the whole upper floor while the family sits in the majlis. We recommend the right option after the load calculation.

Yes, and the roof surface determines what kind of base is needed. For villas we fabricate a raised steel frame that keeps the unit clear of pooled rainwater and allows airflow beneath it. The exact height and angle depend on the roof pitch and the condensate drain position, which the site survey establishes. The aim is to keep the unit level and to prevent vibration movement during operation.

Very much so, coastal humidity raises the load on the outdoor unit and drainage, so we select higher-capacity units and focus closely on filter maintenance and drainage to prevent mould and corrosion.

We use high-grade copper and apply thermal insulation and external protection with salt and humidity-resistant materials, ensuring correct pitch for condensate drainage.

Yes, so we mount the unit in a sheltered spot as far as possible and choose salt-resistant finishes, recommending periodic inspection to clean salt deposits from the fans and coils.

It depends on the outdoor unit location and internal duct distribution, typically under 20 metres in villas and blocks. We calculate it precisely on the first visit and use long insulated copper runs to minimise efficiency loss.
