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.
- Reason the old unit failed found before a new one is chosen
- Refrigerant recovered into a cylinder, not released
- Existing pipes checked for size, condition and cleanliness
- New unit vacuumed, leak tested and run with readings taken
How we carry out AC replacement
Replacement starts with the reason the old unit failed. If the compressor burned out, the pipes carry acid and are renewed. The refrigerant is drawn into a cylinder with a recovery machine, the electrical supply is isolated and both units come down. Where the old copper is the right diameter, sound and clean inside, it can be reused after a nitrogen purge. Otherwise new insulated pipe is run. The new unit is then mounted, connected, vacuumed, leak tested and run on test exactly like a first installation.
Fitting a new unit onto old pipes without checking them is the most common false economy. A wrong pipe size, old oil left in the line or a hidden kink will shorten the life of the new compressor. Long Dubai summers also expose a unit that was undersized from the start, so we work out the room load again instead of copying the old nameplate. The site visit looks at the pipe route, the drain, the bracket, the breaker and how the old units will be carried out of the building.
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.
AC Replacement in Town Square: what we plan for
Town Square is a large family community off Al Qudra Road, built by Nshama around a central park and Reel Cinemas square. Rows of townhouses such as Zahra, Hayat, Safi, Naseem, Noor and Sama sit beside mid rise apartment buildings including Zahra Breeze, Jenna, Warda, Rawda and UNA.
Open desert lies on two sides of the community, so wind carries fine sand into window tracks, balconies and AC filters. Many homes are still in their first years, and builder's dust, paint spots and silicone marks are often left behind from handover. AC units work hard this close to the desert, so filters and coils clog quickly. We clean them in the same visit and check the drain lines.
Townhouse streets are open to visitors with no gate pass. Apartment buildings need a work permit from building management and a service lift booking, and we arrange both.

Questions about AC replacement in Town Square
What does AC replacement include?
The refrigerant is recovered from the old unit, both halves are removed, and a new unit of the right capacity is fitted on new or proven pipework, vacuumed and tested. The work includes reason the old unit failed found before a new one is chosen; refrigerant recovered into a cylinder, not released; existing pipes checked for size, condition and cleanliness.
Can the existing copper pipes be reused?
Sometimes. They must be the diameter the new unit needs, free of kinks and corrosion, and clean inside. After a compressor burnout, or where the old system ran on a different refrigerant and oil, we recommend new pipe and say so in the quotation.
Should I repair or replace an old air conditioner?
Repair makes sense when the fault is a fan motor, a capacitor or a small leak on a sound unit. Replacement is usually the better answer once the compressor has failed, the coil has corroded through or the refrigerant it runs on has become hard to obtain.
How much does AC replacement cost in Town Square?
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 AC replacement in Town Square?
The MELLS provides AC replacement in Town Square, 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 AC replacement 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.
