Air Conditioner Leak
I’ve noticed that my air conditioner starts leaking water after running for more than 1-2 hours. I’m not very tech-savvy when it comes to repairs, so I’m not sure how much I should expect to pay if I hire someone to fix it. What would be a reasonable price for this type of repair?
Additionally, can anyone recommend a trustworthy professional in Melbourne, Australia, who won’t overcharge me? Thanks!
Hi there! Sorry to hear about your air conditioner issues. Leaks can be caused by a few different things, like a clogged drain line, low refrigerant, or even a dirty air filter.
As for cost, hiring a professional can vary based on the complexity of the repair and the service rates in Melbourne. Typically, you might expect to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 for a simple fix, but it could be more if the problem is more serious or requires parts replacement.
To avoid being ripped off, I’d recommend checking online reviews for local HVAC companies or asking friends and family for referrals. Websites like Airtasker or Service Seeking might also help you find reputable technicians. Be sure to get quotes from a few different places before deciding!
Good luck, and I hope your air conditioner is up and running smoothly soon!
