What I do

Aircon cleaning

500 THB · 450 for 3+

Standard clean 500 THB per wall unit, or 450 THB each for three or more. The full strip-down clean is 2,300–2,500 THB depending on size — I take out the blower wheel and every removable part and wash them separately. Both finish with a disinfectant spray. Drip warranty: 30 days for the standard clean, 60 days for the full strip-down. The standard clean is enough for a unit with no smell that gets cleaned regularly — I recommend the full strip-down only where it is needed.

AC repair

500 THB diagnostic

Not cooling, water dripping, strange noises, unit cutting out. I charge 500 THB to diagnose it, and I take that off the bill if you go ahead with the repair. I quote you before I touch anything.

New installation

from 3,000 THB

3,000 THB for 9,000–12,000 BTU, 3,500 THB for 13,000–24,000 BTU. I vacuum the line set fully on every installation — the step that protects the compressor for the long run. The price includes the wall bracket, up to 4 m of piping and the trunking. Warranty up to 1 year.

Relocation

3,500 THB

Moving house or changing rooms. I pump the refrigerant back into the condenser before disconnecting, so you are not paying for a full recharge afterwards. Removal only is 700 THB.

Suspended and ceiling units

from 1,300 THB

Restaurants, cafés and offices usually have units suspended below the ceiling or recessed into it. They sit high up and everything below has to be sheeted off first, so they take longer than a wall unit. Suspended units from 1,300 THB, ceiling-recessed from 1,500 THB. The final price depends on the size of the unit and how high the ceiling is, and I tell you before I start.

Buying a unit and trade-ins

quoted per model

I sell both new and checked second-hand units, fitted. I supply and fit the unit myself, and the warranty covers both the unit and the installation. Unit prices depend on the model and the promotion running at the time, so I quote per model. Second-hand units carry a 1 month warranty on the unit itself. I also take your old unit in part-exchange, but I have to see it before I can put a price on it.

Washing machine drum clean

from 999 THB

I take the drum out and wash every removable part. The build-up sits on the outside of the drum, where water alone cannot reach. Top loaders start at 999 THB and go by capacity; front loaders start at 1,299 THB because they are more involved to strip down. Around three hours per machine, 30-day warranty.

Refrigerant is 25 THB per pound for both R32 and R410A. The level is measured in front of you at no charge first, so you can see whether a top-up is needed before you pay for one.

The burning season matters more than you think

If you are new to Chiang Mai, the months from February to April are the hard part of the year. The city sits in a bowl ringed by mountains, and in the dry season a layer of warm air traps smoke from agricultural burning over the valley for weeks at a time.

Two things follow from that. First, the filter that came with your air conditioner does not stop PM2.5 — it is designed to catch coarse dust and protect the coil, not fine particulates. What your aircon actually does for you is let you keep the room sealed, which is what really keeps the outdoor air out. Pair it with a HEPA purifier for the room you sleep in.

Second, soot clogs coils fast. A unit that was fine in January can be blowing weakly by March, and April is the hottest month, when every technician in the city is fully booked. A clean before the season starts is far easier to arrange than one during it.

Why people call me back

  • Every rate is published, so you know the cost before you call. I confirm the exact figure with you before I start, and it does not change afterwards.
  • Refrigerant is measured in front of you. A system that is not low does not get topped up, because overcharging one shortens the life of the compressor.
  • Old parts come back to you with an explanation of what failed. Where a repair costs more than the unit is worth, I give you the repair cost and the replacement cost side by side, and the decision stays with you.
  • Two layers of drop sheets on every cleaning job. Floor and furniture stay as they were.
  • Every clean includes a disinfectant spray. Warranty against drips: 30 days after a standard clean, 60 days after a full strip-down clean. Repairs: 30 days. Installation: up to 1 year.
  • Full VAT tax invoices and receipts issued in the company name, Cher Solutions Co., Ltd., for business bookings.

What the work looks like

Most of the dirt sits where you cannot see it until the parts come out.

    Sheets go down before anything is opened

  • Technician with a tool belt holding a large blue catch sheet up around a high indoor unit before any rinsing starts

    What the inside usually looks like before a clean

  • Two aircon filter screens lifted out and set down on a tiled floor, with grey dust visible across the mesh

    Filters come out first

  • Removed white plastic front panel and air grille laid out on a striped tarpaulin ready to be washed separately

    Every removable part is washed on its own

  • Two washed filter screens laid on a pale tiled floor, the mesh clear again with no dust left on it

Frequently asked questions

Do you speak English?

I work in written English on LINE, using a translation app. Bookings, quotes and job details all go through smoothly that way, and you keep a written record of what was agreed. Short, plain sentences come through most accurately — if a reply reads oddly, say so and I will put it another way. LINE works far better than a phone call, so please message rather than ring.

How much does aircon cleaning cost in Chiang Mai?

My standard clean is 500 THB per wall-mounted unit for 9,000–18,000 BTU, dropping to 450 THB each when you have three or more. Larger units at 18,001–36,000 BTU are 650 THB, or 600 THB each from two up. The full strip-down clean is 2,300–2,500 THB per unit depending on size.

How often should I clean my aircon in Chiang Mai?

More often than in most places, unfortunately. During the burning season from February to April the air here carries far more soot than usual and filters clog fast. I suggest a full clean in January before the season starts, rinsing the filters yourself every 2–4 weeks through it, and a second full clean around May or June.

Can you issue a tax invoice for my accounts?

Yes. Cher Solutions Co., Ltd. is VAT registered, so I can issue a full VAT tax invoice as well as a receipt, in the company name, for cafés, restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and offices. Send me your company name and tax ID before the visit and the paperwork is ready when the job is done.

Do you work on condos and rental properties?

Yes — houses, condos, dormitories, hotels, restaurants and offices. If you manage an Airbnb or a rental villa and need units serviced between guests, message me with the number of units and the area and we can work out a schedule that fits your turnovers.

How quickly can you come?

Usually within 24 hours, and the same day if I have a slot free. I work Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm, and can take bookings outside those hours for an additional fee that I quote first. The exception is February to April, the burning season, when the whole city is booking at once. Booking a week ahead is safer then.

Get a quote today

Send me the number of units, roughly what size they are, and your area. I will give you a price before anyone comes out. LINE is easiest for English.
