Air Con Installation Part 3: Install Split type air conditioner (Hong Kong)

What to consider while you want to Install Split type air conditioner?

The Split air con have two units, one indoor and one outdoor.



1:Size of the air con
We choose different horsepower based on the size of the room.
For single bedroom, size around 80-100 square ft, (ceiling high less than 2.5m), 1-1.5 horsepower split air con should be enough. If your room facing the sun with glass window you can mention to the technician.

2: Where to put the indoor unit?
For most of the bedroom, we don't suggest install the indoor unit facing the head of the bed or above the bed.
For other location, you may need to install a extra wood board.

3: Where to install the outdoor unit?
For flat in hong kong, most of them have a fixed location for the outdoor unit. Such as window ledge. If not, a scaffolding maybe require for install the AC stand.



The steps for building scaffolding,
- advising the management office of your building (if you live in a flat)
- fill the form , some might require deposit
- ask the contractor to submit all DOC./insurance
- the guy will come to your flat to install the scaffolding, it will take around 1 hour to complete if the size is less then 7 feet
- the technician will come and install the unit
- after testing the air con for 10 days
- ask the guy to remove the scaffold and the job is complete.

How much is a scaffolding for install air conditioner?
The scaffolding company charge depend on the size of the air con, the standard of the scaffold start at 7 feet. The bigger you need the more it cost.
