Air conditioning
Used and reconditioned air conditioners in Islamabad and Rawalpindi
A properly reconditioned split unit costs a fraction of new and, checked honestly, gives years of service. A 1.5 ton reconditioned unit runs PKR 45,000 to 85,000 with fitting, and what separates a good buy from a bad one is a pressure test and a running measurement before money changes hands.

Test before it is offered, not after it is sold
Every unit we sell has been run, pressure-tested for leaks, had its coils cleaned and its running current measured. A unit that holds pressure and pulls the right current is a genuine buy; one that has been topped up to look alive on the shop floor will be flat again within weeks.
Show you the compressor's actual condition
We tell you the age, the gas type and what was replaced during reconditioning. An R22 unit is cheaper for a reason — that refrigerant is being phased down and the gas costs more every year — and you should know that before choosing it rather than after your first refill.
Fit it to the same standard as a new unit
Reconditioned units get the same installation: short lagged pipe, proper vacuum, measured drain fall, recorded running figures. Most reconditioned units that disappoint were fitted carelessly on the assumption that a cheap unit does not deserve care.
Warranty in writing, with its limits stated
You get a written warranty covering the compressor and the work for a stated period. We also say plainly what it does not cover, because a used-goods warranty that pretends to be a new-goods warranty is not worth the paper.
What the price covers. PKR 45,000 buys a checked 1 ton reconditioned split, fitted. A 1.5 ton runs PKR 60,000 to 85,000 depending on age, brand and whether it is an inverter unit. Reconditioned inverter units cost more and are worth it where the unit will run daily.

Questions people ask
How do I know a used unit is not a lemon?
Ask for three things before paying: a pressure test showing it holds gas, a measured running current against the rating plate, and the gas type. A unit that has simply been topped up will run beautifully in the shop and be warm within a month. Any seller who will not do those checks in front of you is telling you something.
Is R22 a problem?
It is a cost problem rather than a working problem. R22 units cool perfectly well, but the refrigerant is being phased down globally and gets more expensive each year, so a leak that needs refilling costs more than it would on an R410a unit. If the unit is sound and cheap, it can still be the right buy — just know what a future refill will cost.
What warranty comes with a reconditioned unit?
Ours covers the compressor and our workmanship for a stated period, in writing, with the exclusions named. It is genuinely shorter than a new unit's manufacturer warranty and it should be — anyone offering a used compressor the same cover as a new one is either not honouring it or has priced it in somewhere you have not seen.
