Frequently Asked Questions

How much does AC installation cost in Craiova?

Installation of a standard split unit ranges from 400 to 800 RON in Craiova, depending on unit capacity and installation complexity. Always request a quote before confirming the work.

How long does AC installation take?

A standard split unit installation typically takes 2-4 hours. If the connection route is longer or access is difficult, it may take up to a full day.

Does the technician need certification for AC installation?

For work involving refrigerants, the technician must hold an ANRE certification or qualification certificate under EU Regulation 517/2014 on fluorinated greenhouse gases.

How often should an AC unit be sanitized?

Specialists recommend sanitizing the unit at least once a year, ideally in spring before the warm season. An unsanitized unit can spread bacteria, mold, and unpleasant odors.

What happens if I don't maintain my AC?

A poorly maintained unit consumes more energy, cools less effectively, can cause respiratory issues, and has a shorter lifespan. Clogged filters are the most common cause of poor performance.

Can I install an AC unit myself?

While portable units require no installation, split systems must be installed by a specialist, as they involve cutting through walls, handling refrigerants, and making electrical connections.
