What is included
Supply and installation of split, ducted, cassette and multi split air conditioning for Dubai homes, offices and shops, sized to the room and tested at handover. Most cooling complaints in Dubai trace back to the day the unit was fitted: a pipe run too long or kinked, lines never vacuumed, a drain with no fall. Our own technicians check the room load and the power supply first, fit the unit to the manufacturer's instructions and record the temperatures on a test run. We fit a unit we supply or one you bought, and say so plainly if it is the wrong size for the room.
- New position checked for airflow, shade and service access
- Bracket fixed into solid masonry with anchor bolts
- Rubber mounts fitted under the feet to cut vibration
- Pipe and cable run in one length wherever the route allows
How we carry out outdoor unit installation and relocation
The condenser needs free air into the coil and a clear path for the hot discharge. We fix a galvanised wall bracket into solid block or concrete with anchor bolts, or set the unit on a roof stand or a ground pad raised clear of irrigation water. Rubber mounts go under the feet. To move a unit, the refrigerant is pumped down, the pipes and cable are disconnected and capped, and the run is remade to the new position, ideally in one length with no added joints. A vacuum, a leak test and a test run follow.
A condenser pushed into a recess, a narrow side passage or a row of other units breathes hot air and loses capacity just when the afternoon is hottest. Direct afternoon sun on the coil does the same, so a shaded wall is preferred where there is one. In Dubai towers the building decides where outdoor units stand, and in gated communities a unit on an elevation or a roof may need the master developer's consent. Both are identified at the site visit, and we prepare the paperwork that is asked for.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey and diagnosis. A technician inspects the system or surface, takes readings and photographs, and explains what was found in plain language.
- Written quotation. You receive a written quotation against a defined scope before any work starts. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
- Protected, supervised work. The work area is protected and isolated, and the job is carried out by our own technicians under a named supervisor.
- Testing. Every job ends with a measured test suited to the discipline, so the result is a reading and a photograph and not an opinion.
- Report and warranty. The completed report reaches you within the hour. Any failed point is put right free of charge within 48 hours.
Outdoor Unit Installation and Relocation in Mirdif: what we plan for
Mirdif is one of Dubai's established family districts, east of the airport, with streets of private villas built from the 1990s onwards, the townhouses of Shorooq and Mushrif Village, and apartments at Uptown Mirdif, Ghoroob, Mirdif Hills and Mirdif Tulip. Al Warqa, Al Mizhar, Al Rashidiya, Nad Al Hamar and Al Khawaneej surround it with larger private villas.
Many homes here are twenty to thirty years old, so AC ducts, water tanks, roofs and bathrooms have had time to collect what newer communities have not seen yet. Mature gardens bring leaf litter and irrigation marks, and dust settles quickly on sills, roofs and outdoor furniture. In villas of this age the AC ducts, drain lines, water heaters, pumps and rooftop tanks are usually due for attention. We inspect first and report what is urgent and what can wait.
Most streets are open, with no community gate, and we park at the villa. Apartment communities such as Ghoroob, Uptown Mirdif and Mirdif Hills need a work permit from building management, which we arrange.

Questions about outdoor unit installation and relocation in Mirdif
What does outdoor unit installation and relocation include?
Outdoor units are fixed on a wall bracket, roof stand or ground pad with clear air around the coil, and moving one means a pump down and a remade pipe, cable and drain run. The work includes new position checked for airflow, shade and service access; bracket fixed into solid masonry with anchor bolts; rubber mounts fitted under the feet to cut vibration.
Can the outdoor unit go on the roof?
Often, provided the pipe length and the height difference stay within what the maker allows and the roof is safe to reach for servicing. On a villa in a gated community the developer may have a say over what is visible, which we check before proposing it.
Why is my outdoor unit so noisy?
Common causes are a bracket fixed into hollow block, missing rubber mounts, a casing touching a railing or a fan blade out of balance. Moving the unit to a solid wall or a pad and isolating it properly removes most vibration noise.
How much does outdoor unit installation and relocation cost in Mirdif?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size and type of the system or surface; present condition and ease of access. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides outdoor unit installation and relocation in Mirdif?
The MELLS provides outdoor unit installation and relocation in Mirdif, Dubai. The work is carried out by people The MELLS employs directly, under a named supervisor, 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday. To arrange it, book a site visit on this page or call +971 55 444 0084.
How long does outdoor unit installation and relocation take?
Typically half a day for one split unit, longer for ducted systems. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
What size of air conditioner does my room need?
Capacity follows the heat the room gains, not only its floor area. Glazing that faces the afternoon sun, ceiling height, a roof directly above, the number of people and any kitchen or equipment all add load. We measure and work it out at the site visit.
Can a split unit be fitted in any apartment?
No. The building decides where an outdoor unit may stand, and towers on chilled water do not take split units at all. We check the system and the building rules at the site visit and prepare the paperwork that management asks for.
Why do the lines have to be vacuumed?
Air and moisture left in the copper pipes mix with the refrigerant and the oil, which lowers cooling and wears the compressor early. A vacuum pump draws both out, and the gauge has to hold steady before the refrigerant is released into the lines.
How do your crews get access to Mirdif?
Most streets are open, with no community gate, and we park at the villa. Apartment communities such as Ghoroob, Uptown Mirdif and Mirdif Hills need a work permit from building management, which we arrange.
Do you work in older villas in Mirdif?
Yes. Much of our work in Mirdif, Al Warqa and Al Mizhar is in villas twenty years old or more, where the supervisor checks ducts, tanks, roofs and bathrooms at the site visit and writes what was found into the quotation.
How do I choose a company for outdoor unit installation and relocation in Mirdif?
