    Who does the work

    Aircon Installation Cape Town takes your enquiry, arranges the site visit, recommends a unit size and issues the written quote. The installation on site is carried out by our appointed installation contractor, working on our behalf and to the quote you accepted. Questions or concerns about the work come to us.

    The pictures on this site

    The images on this website, including the install examples, are computer-generated illustrations. They show the kind of installation we mean. They are not photographs of jobs we have done, and they do not show any real customer's home or business.

    Published prices are other people's figures

    The prices on our aircon installation cost page and elsewhere on the site are quoted from third-party price guides and retailers. They are those publishers' figures, with the dates and conditions they gave, not our prices and not an offer from us. None of those sources says whether VAT is included. Your own price is fixed only in the written quote that follows a site visit.

    Technical and legal information is general

    Where we quote regulations, City of Cape Town rules, electricity tariffs, sizing charts or warranty terms, we name the source next to them, and they were correct when we read them. Rules and tariffs change. Sizing charts from different manufacturers disagree, and your room, its windows and its insulation can change the answer. Climate figures come from the Cape Town International Airport weather station and may not match your suburb.

    Nothing on this site is legal advice or engineering advice for a specific building, and it should not be used as instructions for installing an aircon yourself. For sectional title consent or heritage permits, the final word belongs to your body corporate, the City of Cape Town or Heritage Western Cape.

    Outside links and brand names

    We occasionally link to a public body, such as a government department or SAQCC Gas, so you can check a rule for yourself. We do not control those sites. Naming a manufacturer, retailer or organisation does not mean it endorses us or that we have a business relationship with it.

    Warranties

    Manufacturers' warranties have their own conditions, and some depend on who installed the unit and how often it is serviced. Ask about the warranty on your quote. Nothing on this website is a warranty in its own right.

    Your consumer rights

    We try to keep this website accurate and current, but it can contain mistakes. We are not responsible for decisions made on the strength of general information here without a quote for your installation. Nothing on this page limits the rights you have under the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 or any other South African law.

    Spotted an error?

    If something on the site looks wrong to you, tell us through the contact form and we will check it. How we handle the details you send is explained in our privacy notice.

    Applicable law

    This website and any quote issued through it are governed by South African law.
