When do you need an air conditioning installer?
With increasingly warmer summers in the Netherlands, many homeowners in Leiden are considering purchasing an air conditioner.

Modern split units are also an energy-efficient alternative for additional heating in spring and autumn.
What do you pay attention to when choosing an air conditioning installer in Leiden?
Choose an F-gases certified installer. This is legally required for working with refrigerants. Request multiple quotes and compare by brand, power (kW), energy label and warranty conditions. A good installer will first come by to assess the situation and advise on the best placement of the indoor and outdoor unit.
How does the installation of an air conditioner work?
The installation starts by determining the optimal location for the indoor and outdoor unit. The indoor unit is mounted on the wall and connected to the outdoor unit via pipes through the wall. The installer runs the cooling pipes, installs the condensation drain and connects the system electrically. After installation, the system is filled with coolant and extensively tested. The entire installation takes an average of half to a full day.
Air conditioning costs in Leiden
The costs for air conditioning including installation start from 1,500 euros for a single-split system. A multi-split system with multiple indoor units costs 3,000 to 8,000 euros. The price depends on the brand, the cooling capacity and the number of rooms. Popular brands include Daikin, Mitsubishi and Samsung. Annual maintenance costs 80 to 150 euros and is recommended for optimal performance and a longer lifespan.
