Cool comfort, done electrically right
Most AC problems we see aren't the unit. They're the installation: the wrong size, a shared circuit, poor drainage, or a bad refrigerant connection.
Because we're electricians first, every AC we install gets a dedicated, correctly sized circuit and isolator, proper earthing and surge protection. Combined with careful mounting, vacuum-tested refrigerant lines and neat drainage, that means quieter, cooler, longer-lasting units.
- Correct BTU sizing for each room
- Dedicated circuit, isolator & surge protection
- Vacuum-tested lines and leak checks
- Scheduled cleaning and maintenance plans
AC services
New installation
Wall-mounted split, inverter, multi-split and ceiling cassette units for homes and businesses.
AC electrical circuits
Dedicated 220/240V circuits, isolators and panel upgrades so your AC never trips the house.
Cleaning & servicing
Filter, coil and drain cleaning; performance checks that restore cooling and cut power use.
Repairs
Not cooling, leaking water, noisy, error codes, capacitor and fan motor failures.
Gas top-up & leaks
Leak detection, repair and refrigerant recharge to manufacturer specification.
Commercial cooling
Offices, shops, server rooms and hotel rooms, with maintenance contracts available.
AC size (BTU) calculator
Too small and it never cools; too big and it short-cycles, leaving the room damp. Find the right size for your room.
- Calculated load
- —BTU
- Room area
- —sq ft
Based on ~25 BTU per sq ft for tropical climates, adjusted for sun, use and occupants. High ceilings, large windows and poor insulation increase the load.

| Factor | Standard (fixed speed) | Inverter |
|---|---|---|
| How it runs | Full power on/off cycling | Varies speed to hold temperature |
| Energy use | Higher | Typically 30–50% lower |
| Temperature stability | Swings up and down | Steady and comfortable |
| Noise | Louder starts | Quieter |
| Starting surge | High (harder on generators) | Soft start, generator & solar friendly |
| Upfront price | Lower | Higher, recovered through savings |
Signs your AC needs service
Not cooling like before
Dirty coils, low gas or a failing capacitor.
Water dripping indoors
Blocked drain line, a quick fix before it stains walls.
Musty smell
Mould in the coil or drain pan. A deep clean is needed.
Breaker trips
Electrical fault or shared circuit, our speciality.
Rising light bill
A dirty unit works harder and uses more power.
Ice on pipes
Low refrigerant or airflow problem. Switch off and call.
Service intervalIn Jamaica's heat and dust, clean filters monthly and book a professional service every 3–6 months, more often near the coast or for units running 24/7.
AC installation steps
Assess
Measure the room, check sun load and your electrical capacity.
Circuit
Install a dedicated circuit, isolator and surge protection.
Mount & pipe
Level mounting, insulated lines, vacuum and leak test, neat drainage.
Commission
Pressure and temperature checks, remote setup and care tips.
AC questions
What size AC do I need for a bedroom?
Most Jamaican bedrooms (100–200 sq ft) need 9,000–12,000 BTU. Use the calculator above, or let us measure on site.
Can I run my AC on solar or a generator?
Yes. Inverter units are ideal because of their low starting surge. We size solar and generator systems with your AC load in mind.
Why does my AC trip the breaker?
Common causes are a shared or undersized circuit, a failing compressor capacitor, or loose connections. We test and fix the root cause.
How long does installation take?
A standard wall-mounted split unit usually takes a few hours, including the electrical circuit. Multi-unit and commercial installs are scheduled to suit you.
