Hi, Dr Stranger here. Let’s talk money, because that’s usually the first thing people ask me, and fair enough. Aircon servicing prices in Singapore are all over the place. You’ll see $18 on one listing and $80 on another, for what sounds like the same job.
So here’s an honest guide to what you’re paying for, and what a fair price looks like.
Why the prices are so different
The headline price is only half the story. What matters is what happens once the technician is inside your home. A very cheap servicing often means one of three things:
- A quick rinse. Filters washed, front sprayed, done in a few minutes per unit.
- Add-ons on the spot. Gas top-ups, “chemical wash recommended”, or a “bigger unit” surcharge.
- Transport or GST added at the end. The number on the invoice isn’t the number you saw.
None of that is illegal. It’s just not what most people think they’re booking.
What a proper general servicing should include
At minimum, a decent servicing should cover the filters, the coil, the drain pipe and a test run. In our Deluxe General Servicing we also take the blower out and brush-clean it separately (it can’t be removed on a few models), clean the compressor and check the gas pressure. That’s the part most quick services skip, because it takes longer.
BeeHonest prices, in plain numbers
- Deluxe General Servicing: $65 for the 1st unit with compressor clean, then +$10 for each additional unit. That’s $75 for 2, $85 for 3, $95 for 4, and from $110 for 5 or more.
- BeeChem Wash™: from $75 for 1 unit, $85 for 2, $114 for 3, $140 for 4 and from $165 for 5 or more.
- Chemical Overhaul Jet Wash: from $100 for 1 unit, down to $70 each for 4 or more.
No GST, no transport fee. If your unit is a bigger 18,000 to 24,000 BTU model, it’s $5 more per unit, and we’ll tell you before we start, not after.
How to check you’re getting a fair deal
- Ask for the total price for all your units before the visit.
- Ask whether the blower and drain pipe are cleaned.
- Ask what happens if they think you need gas. (Our answer: we show you the pressure reading first.)
- Ask if GST and transport are included.
If the answers are vague, that’s your answer.
