What Is Included

What Every Installation Includes

A correct AC installation is far more than fitting a bracket and connecting a pipe. Every installation we carry out follows a full checklist to ensure the system performs at its rated efficiency from the first day of operation.

Site Survey and Position Planning

We assess the room, identify the most effective indoor unit position. Check the outdoor unit location for adequate clearance and airflow. . plan the pipe route before a single hole is drilled.

Correct Bracket and Mounting

Indoor and outdoor unit brackets are secured to the correct structural elements with appropriate fixings for weather-rated hardware and correct load capacity.

Correct Copper Pipe Sizing

Copper pipe diameter must match the manufacturer's specification for your unit's capacity. Using undersized or oversized pipe reduces system efficiency immediately and permanently.

Full Pipe Insulation

Every section of copper pipe is properly insulated to prevent condensation forming on the pipe surface and to minimise heat gain on the suction line. Both of which affect cooling efficiency if left uninsulated.

Nitrogen Flush and Vacuum Test

Before connecting refrigerant, the pipe system is nitrogen-flushed to remove debris and vacuum-tested to confirm it is completely airtight and free of moisture. This step is frequently skipped by substandard installers and its absence causes long-term compressor damage.

Correct Refrigerant Charging

Where pre-charged refrigerant needs supplementing. For this reason, refrigerant is added using calibrated gauges to achieve the exact operating pressures specified by the manufacturer.

Proper Drainage Routing

The condensate drain pipe is routed at the correct fall gradient to a proper drain point. This is because a drain that dribbles down the building facade causes long-term damp damage and is a clear sign of a careless installation.

Electrical Safety and Earthing

The AC connects to a dedicated circuit with the correct MCB rating and wire gauge. Earth connections are verified at both units. Delhi's voltage fluctuations make correct electrical installation especially important for protecting the unit's circuit board and compressor.

Full System Run and Performance Check

After installation is complete, the system is run in cooling mode and performance is verified. Operating pressures, airflow, thermostat response and remote control function are all checked before the job is closed.

Written Warranty and Job Card

Every installation is documented with a written job card covering what got installed. Pipe run length, refrigerant type and the warranty period on installation workmanship. You keep a copy for your records.

How It Works

The AC Installation Process: Step by Step

From your first call to the completed installation, here is exactly how a Rapid AC Repair installation visit works in Delhi NCR.

1
Call or WhatsApp to Book
Takes under 2 minutes
Call +91 98108 66843 or WhatsApp with the AC type you want installed, the brand and your area in Delhi NCR. We confirm availability and schedule a visit. Same-day slots are available in most areas.
2
Site Survey on Arrival
Positions, pipe route, electrical supply
Our technician surveys the installation site before starting any physical work. Indoor unit position, outdoor unit location, pipe route, pipe length required, electrical supply point and drainage exit are all assessed and agreed with you before work begins.
3
Price Confirmation Before Starting
No surprises added later
Based on the site survey, we confirm the total installation price before any work begins. If the pipe run is longer than standard or additional materials are required, this is communicated and agreed upfront. Nothing is added to the bill after the job that was not discussed beforehand.
4
Indoor and Outdoor Unit Mounting
Structural fixings, correct levelling
Indoor unit bracket is secured at the correct height and level. Outdoor unit is mounted at the agreed location with proper clearances on all sides for heat rejection airflow. Wall penetrations are made at the correct angle for drainage and sealed around the pipe sleeve after installation.
5
Copper Piping, Insulation and Drainage
Correctly sized and fully insulated
Copper refrigerant pipes of the correct diameter are run between the units, fully insulated throughout the run. The condensate drain pipe is routed at the correct fall to a proper drainage point. All pipes are neatly clamped or concealed in conduit depending on your preference.
6
Vacuum Test and Refrigerant Connection
The step that protects your compressor
The pipe system is vacuum-tested to confirm it is airtight before any refrigerant valves are opened. This removes moisture and air from the pipe run, both of which cause compressor damage over time. Only once the vacuum test passes is the refrigerant side of the installation completed.
7
Electrical Connection and Safety Check
Dedicated circuit, correct MCB, earth verified
The AC is connected to a dedicated electrical circuit with the correct MCB rating and cable size. Earth connections are verified at both indoor and outdoor units. We check the supply voltage before switching on and flag any supply quality concerns.
8
Commissioning, Test Run and Handover
System verified before we leave
The AC is switched on and run through a full commissioning cycle. Operating pressures, airflow, cooling output, thermostat function and remote control are all verified. We walk you through first-use settings. Your written job card and warranty documentation are provided before we leave.

Capacity Guide

How to Choose the Right AC Capacity for Your Room

Installing the wrong capacity AC is a common and costly mistake. An undersized unit struggles to cool and runs continuously, while an oversized unit short-cycles and fails to dehumidify properly.

0.75T

Ton Capacity

Rooms up to 100 sq ft, small bedrooms, home offices and compact study rooms on lower floors with limited direct sunlight exposure.

Ton Capacity

Rooms between 100 and 150 sq ft, standard bedrooms, small living rooms and office cabins in shaded or north-facing positions.

1.5T

Ton Capacity

Rooms between 150 and 200 sq ft, the most common choice for Delhi master bedrooms, medium living rooms and sun-facing rooms that absorb significant heat load.

Ton Capacity

Rooms between 200 and 280 sq ft, large living rooms, open-plan areas, larger offices and rooms with high occupancy or significant heat-generating equipment.

2+T

Commercial Grade

Spaces above 280 sq ft, commercial halls, showrooms, conference rooms and large restaurant dining areas. Multiple units or a ducted system may be the better choice.

These are general guidelines. The actual capacity needed depends on ceiling height, floor level, window area, sun exposure and occupancy. Our technicians assess all these factors during the site survey and recommend the right capacity for your specific room before installation begins.

Complete Guide

AC Installation in Delhi NCR: A Complete Guide

Buying a new air conditioner is a significant investment for most Delhi households and businesses. The purchase price gets most of the attention. . However, the quality of the installation is equally important to how well that investment performs over the years ahead. A correctly installed AC runs at its rated efficiency and is protected against the premature component failures that poor installation causes. An incorrectly installed AC begins losing efficiency from day one. For ongoing protection after installation, anAC annual maintenance contractensures the system checks and serviced at the right intervals every year.

Why Installation Quality Matters More in Delhi

Delhi's operating conditions make correct installation more critical than in moderate climates. When ambient temperatures regularly reach their summer peak. An air conditioner is already working near the limits of its design capacity. Any installation flaw that reduces efficiency has a measurable impact on the room temperature the AC can achieve and the electricity consumed in trying to reach it. Delhi's frequent voltage fluctuations also make electrical safety particularly important. An AC connected to a shared. Overloaded circuit or with inadequate earthing is at higher risk of circuit board damage during power surges. If a fault does develop from a poor installation, ourAC repair in Delhi NCRteam diagnoses and resolves it with the same professional process applied to all repair work.

The Vacuum Test: The Most Important Step Most Installers Skip

Among all the steps in an AC installation. Vacuum testing the pipe system before opening the refrigerant valves is the one that separates professional installers from those cutting corners. The vacuum test confirms the system has no leaks and contains no residual moisture or air. The refrigeration oil that lubricates the compressor is extremely sensitive to moisture contamination. Even a small amount of moisture left in the pipe system reacts with the refrigerant to form acidic compounds that progressively damage the compressor from the inside. Skipping the vacuum test saves approximately fifteen minutes. The cost of that shortcut is paid by the customer. Usually in the form of compressor failure outside the warranty period. Often requiresAC gas refillingand additional repair work.

Before booking any AC installation in Delhi. Ask the installer directly: do you perform a vacuum test before opening the refrigerant valves? At Rapid AC Repair, vacuum testing performs on every installation without exception.

Outdoor Unit Placement: A Factor Often Underestimated

The outdoor unit works by rejecting heat extracted from the room to the outside air. For it to do this effectively, it needs unrestricted airflow on all sides. When an outdoor unit installs in a cramped location, inside an enclosure for aesthetic reasons. Or pressed against a wall without adequate clearance. It recirculates its own hot discharge air back into the intake. This dramatically reduces cooling efficiency and forces the compressor to work at elevated temperatures. Our technicians assess every outdoor unit location during the site survey and advise on the optimal placement before installation begins. For units already installed poorly, a properAC service and cleaningvisit can address performance issues that have developed from substandard placement.

How Long Does AC Installation Take in Delhi?

A standard single split AC installation in a residential setting typically takes between two and four hours from arrival to completion. . This includes the site survey, mounting, piping, electrical work, vacuum test and commissioning. We will always give you an accurate time estimate after the site survey so you know how long to set aside. We do not rush installations to fit more jobs into a day. Every step in the checklist finishes properly regardless of how long it takes.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we receive most often about AC installation in Delhi NCR.

How long does AC installation take in Delhi?

A standard single split AC installation typically takes two to four hours from arrival to completion, including site survey, all physical work, vacuum testing and commissioning. Installations with longer pipe runs, complex outdoor unit positions or commercial system types take longer. We provide an accurate time estimate after assessing the site.

What is included in your AC installation service?

Every installation includes site survey, indoor and outdoor unit mounting, correctly sized and fully insulated copper pipe run, drainage pipe routing, nitrogen flush, vacuum test, refrigerant connection, electrical connection with dedicated MCB, full system commissioning and performance test, and a written job card with installation warranty.

Which capacity AC should I buy for my room in Delhi?

Rooms up to 150 sq ft typically suit a 1 ton unit, rooms between 150 and 200 sq ft suit a 1.5 ton unit, and rooms between 200 and 280 sq ft suit a 2 ton unit. The correct capacity also depends on ceiling height, sun exposure, floor level and the number of occupants. Our technicians assess all these factors during the site survey and advise accordingly before installation.

Can you install an AC I already bought from a showroom?

Yes. We install customer-supplied units from any brand and any retailer. Call us with the brand and model and we will confirm the installation scope and price. We follow the manufacturer's installation specification for your specific model in all cases.

Do you provide a warranty on installation work?

Yes. We provide a written warranty on our installation workmanship covering any fault directly attributable to the installation. The warranty terms are specified on the job card provided at the time of installation and are separate from the manufacturer's warranty on the AC unit itself.

What is the difference between standard and concealed pipe installation?

Standard installation runs copper pipes along the external surface of the wall protected by PVC conduit. Concealed installation chases pipes into the wall and plasters over them for a cleaner finish. Concealed piping is more expensive and disruptive during installation but produces a neater result. We offer both options depending on your wall type and preference for finish.
