How AC Installation Works With MR FIXIO
Schedule Your Appointment
Call or WhatsApp us with your AC brand, model, BTU size, and your location in Bahria Town. Tell us if you need a standard installation or if there are special requirements — long pipe runs, high ceilings, brick walls, or multiple units. We'll confirm your slot the same day in most cases.
Get a Clear Quote Upfront
Our technician surveys the installation site and gives you a full quote before work starts, covering labour, pipe length, cable, drainage, wall brackets, and any additional materials. No vague estimates. You know exactly what you're paying before a single drill touches your wall.
Professional Installation
Our trained AC installer handles the complete installation: wall bracket mounting, indoor and outdoor unit fixing, copper pipe bending and flaring, electrical cable routing, condensate drain pipe fitting, system vacuuming, and refrigerant charge verification. Every step done properly — not rushed.
Full System Test
After installation we run the AC through a complete test cycle — cooling mode, fan speeds, thermostat response, drainage check, and refrigerant pressure verification. We confirm the indoor and outdoor units are communicating correctly and that cooling performance matches the unit's rated capacity. Only then do we pack up.
SERVICE DETAILS
What Our AC Installation Services Covers
Split AC Installation
Complete installation for 1-ton, 1.5-ton, and 2-ton split ACs. Includes indoor wall mounting, outdoor unit fixing, copper pipe run, electrical connection, drain pipe installation, vacuuming, and system commissioning. The most common installation type in Bahria Town homes.
Window AC Installation
Wall or window frame cutting, unit fitting, sealing, levelling, and electrical connection. Older housing units and servant quarters in Bahria Town often use window ACs — we handle these installations cleanly without damaging wall structure.
Cassette AC Installation
False ceiling-mounted cassette units require precise ceiling cutout, structural support bracket installation, refrigerant pipe routing through ceiling cavities, and drain pump connection. We handle the full installation including coordination with false ceiling contractors if needed.
Floor-Standing AC Installation
Large floor-standing units for spacious rooms or commercial spaces in Bahria Town. Includes outdoor unit placement, pipe routing, electrical supply connection, and drainage setup.
Multi-Split System Installation
One outdoor unit connected to two or more indoor units — increasingly popular in Bahria Town homes where a single large outdoor unit serves multiple rooms. Requires precise refrigerant charge calculation across multiple indoor units and balanced pipe runs.
Relocation / Re-Installation
Moving your AC from one room to another, or shifting the outdoor unit to a better position. Includes pump-down (recovering existing refrigerant), pipe removal and re-running, re-installation, and recharge. Done correctly, relocation doesn't damage the AC.
Copper Pipe Extension
Standard installation includes 3–4 metres of copper pipe. For longer pipe runs between indoor and outdoor units — common in larger homes or where the outdoor unit must be placed on a roof or distant wall — we supply and install additional pipe length with correct sizing and insulation.
Electrical Circuit & MCB Setup
Every AC installation should have a dedicated electrical circuit with a correctly rated MCB (miniature circuit breaker). We assess your existing electrical board, install a dedicated circuit if needed, and ensure the AC's power supply meets safety and load requirements.
Post-Installation Commissioning
After all physical work is done, we commission the system: vacuum test, refrigerant pressure check, mode testing (cooling, fan, auto), remote pairing, temperature differential measurement, and drainage confirmation. We document the installation for your records.
COMMON ISSUES
Common AC Installation Problems We See in Bahria Town Homes
Most AC problems that show up in the first year, such as poor cooling, water dripping indoors, gas loss, and noisy operation, aren’t unit faults. They’re installation faults. And they’re completely avoidable when the installation is done the first time correctly.
No vacuuming before gas charge
This is the most damaging and most common shortcut. Before adding refrigerant, the system must be vacuumed — a vacuum pump pulls out air, nitrogen, and moisture from the copper pipes and coils. If this step is skipped, moisture enters the refrigerant circuit, reacts with the compressor oil, forms acid, and destroys the compressor from the inside. Slowly. Silently. And expensively.
Wrong pipe sizing or poor flaring
Copper refrigerant pipes come in specific sizes matched to the AC’s BTU rating and pipe run length. Using undersized pipe, poorly flared joints, or pipes with sharp bends restricts refrigerant flow, reduces cooling efficiency, and creates leak points. We use the correct pipe diameter, proper flare tools, and smooth bends every time.
Incorrect installation height
The indoor unit must be mounted at the correct height, perfectly level. The drain pipe must slope correctly at least 1.5–2 degrees downward so condensate water flows out naturally. An incorrectly angled unit means water drips back into the room instead of out through the drain pipe.
Poor cable routing and wiring
AC units draw significant current. A 1.5-ton AC pulls around 7–10 amps, a 2-ton around 10–14 amps. Undersized wiring, loose connections at the terminal block, or using a shared circuit without a dedicated MCB are fire and tripping risks. We route cables neatly, use appropriate wire gauges, and connect through a properly rated MCB.
Outdoor unit placed incorrectly
The outdoor unit needs adequate clearance on all sides for airflow, a minimum of 20–30cm from walls or obstructions. Cramped or enclosed installations cause the compressor to overheat, reduce efficiency, and shorten the unit’s lifespan. We advise on the best outdoor unit placement before drilling begins.
Incorrect refrigerant charge
If a system was installed with the wrong amount of refrigerant, either because the installer guessed instead of measuring, or because they didn’t account for extra pipe run length, the AC will underperform or overload the compressor. We verify the charge by pressure readings, not by guesswork.

Why You Should Never Let an Unqualified Person Fill Your AC Gas
In Bahria Town and across Lahore, it’s common to see AC mechanics who offer gas filling at suspiciously low prices sometimes from the back of a motorcycle with an unmarked cylinder. This approach causes real damage that costs far more to fix later.
Wrong refrigerant type
R22, R32, and R410A are not interchangeable. Mixing refrigerants — or using the wrong type — causes chemical reactions inside the system, breaks down the compressor oil, and can permanently seize the compressor. A compressor replacement costs PKR 15,000–40,000 or more. The wrong gas costs a fraction of that — until it destroys your unit.
Overcharging the system
Adding too much refrigerant is just as damaging as too little. Overcharging increases head pressure in the compressor, causes liquid refrigerant to enter the compressor (called liquid slugging), and leads to compressor failure. Proper gas filling requires manifold gauges, not guesswork.
Ignoring the leak
Low refrigerant always means there's a leak somewhere. Filling gas without finding and repairing the leak means you'll lose the refrigerant again within weeks — and pay for another refill that also won't last.
No post-fill testing
Without measuring actual cooling performance after a refill, there's no way to confirm the job was done correctly. An undertrained mechanic fills gas, packs up, and leaves. Two days later, the problem is back.

FAQ Question
Frequently Asked Questions
Standard split AC installation (up to 4 metres of pipe) costs between PKR 3,500–6,000, including labour, standard pipe, cable, drain pipe, and wall bracket. This varies based on pipe run length, wall type (brick vs concrete), floor level, and whether additional electrical work is needed. We give you a complete quote before starting, no vague “we’ll see” pricing.
Standard installation includes copper pipe and insulation for up to 3–4 metres of pipe run, PVC condensate drain pipe, power cable, and indoor unit wall bracket. If your installation requires a longer pipe run — common when the outdoor unit must go on a roof or distant wall — additional pipe length is quoted separately at a per-metre rate. Everything is itemised so you know what you’re paying for.
A standard single-split AC installation takes 2.5–4 hours. This includes mounting, pipe work, electrical connections, vacuuming (which takes 20–30 minutes on its own), refrigerant charge verification, and full system testing. Rushing through installation to do it in 90 minutes usually means vacuuming was skipped — a red flag for any installation.
Yes. AC relocation includes pump-down (recovering the refrigerant safely), removal of the indoor and outdoor units, re-installation in the new location, re-running of pipes and cables, and system recharge. Relocation typically costs PKR 3,000–5,000, depending on the complexity of the new location. Done correctly, relocation does not damage the AC.
Yes, and this is important. Every AC should be on a dedicated circuit with a correctly rated MCB. Sharing a circuit with other heavy appliances causes MCB tripping and voltage fluctuations that damage the compressor over time. If your home doesn’t have a spare circuit, we can install one. We’ll include this in your quote if needed during the site survey.
Yes. False ceiling rooms require slightly different routing for the refrigerant pipes and condensate drain, typically through the ceiling cavity. We coordinate this cleanly. If you have a cassette AC for a false ceiling space, we handle that installation as well, including the ceiling cutout and drain pump connection
