  • Why is the air con timer or LED blinking and flashing?

    A protective device in the air con system has been activated to prevent further damage. This is to indicate that there’s a fault within the air con system. Thus, it will either switch on or off, or will continue to operate without supply of cold air. It is not advisable to do an electrical power reset as it might further damage the aircon system. Therefore, a certified technician is needed to check and repair the fault.

  • Does your company provide modification of aircon for specific needs?

    Yes. We are also one of the few company in Singapore that is equipped with the knowledge and skills to reprogram the functions, efficiency, temperature of the aircon and other modifications needs. We are able to control the supply tempreture or a set and constant temperature for quality control purpose, fire safety purpose and other needs. Modification is usually done for commercial or industrial uses. However, we also welcome modification for residential purposes.
