Boost Efficiency, Reduce Costs: Air Conditioner Cleaning Prices

When an air conditioning unit needs cleaning, our technicians deliver many services to ensure it continues to work efficiently. Changing the filter regularly and keeping your outdoor unit free from garden debris is essential to keep it running effectively. In addition to cleaning the vents and coils, consider investing in a thermostat that’s programmable to keep your system running effectively.

Hiring a technician with professional experience usually costs more than cleaning an air conditioning unit yourself. The price to complete the task is based upon how much maintenance and cleaning your AC unit needs, but on average, it’s anywhere between $99 p/unit and $200 p/unit. Using specialised tools, our technicians will ensure your system is running:

  • Effectively
  • Help minimise running costs
  • Help catch problems quickly
  • Keep it free from dust

Some homeowners DIY their own AC cleaning, saving themselves a little money, but many prefer the expertise of our technicians. So, let’s consider what it costs to get your system cleaned.

Breathe Easy & Save: Air Conditioner Cleaning Prices

If you live with allergies and use an air conditioner in your home, keeping it clean is essential. You can clean it yourself, but you must be mindful of safety and the AC unit size; cleaning it effectively is possible. 

Being familiar with any risks involved, for example, ensuring the power is shut off, can protect you against electrocution. If the risks seem overwhelming or you’re uncertain whether you have the right skills, hiring a professional aircon cleaner at Pristine Aircon Cleaning may be your better choice.

As mentioned above, you can expect to pay between $99 p/unit and $200 p/unit for a professional clean with our crew. The price depends on what type of cleaning service you require and how many units need cleaning.

In comparison, cleaning it yourself can cost around $50 if you have time to spend doing the task yourself. While you will save on costs by doing the task yourself, it’s likely to take longer to finish than engaging in professional services. 

The Cleaning Process

Regular cleaning is essential to ensure your aircon unit functions well. Ongoing care will make the unit last its expected lifetime and remain energy efficient. When you engage our professional technicians, they usually undertake the following process, depending on what service choice you make:

  • Remove and clean filters
  • Vacuum debris and dirt from cooling fins
  • Clean coils
  • Undertake a mess-free clean
  • Wash & sanitise
  • And more. 

We do not break out services into individual costs but provide a service based on your needs at a per-unit price. This means we aren’t charging labour and costs but one fixed price. For example, a standard split system clean includes no call-out fee but removes dirt and mould and a host of other services for $99.

A Step Ahead with Professional Aircon Cleaning

An air conditioning service like Pristine Aircon Cleaning can access parts of your unit that you may not otherwise have access to. While it will cost more than doing it yourself, you can be confident that every aspect of the unit will be treated with care and cleaned well, filters free from dust, and any potential issues will be noted and managed. Professional technicians are also efficient because this is their area of expertise. 

Choosing a professional team is investing in your future and the longevity of your air conditioning. While you can do DIY, consider how much more manageable and long-term beneficial a professional can make the job. Ask us how.
