What’s the Name? Window or Wall ACs?
This is a unit with two different names. If you put it in a window, it’s a window air conditioner. If you build it into a wall, it’s a wall air conditioner. So you will see these units under both names and sometimes as window wall air conditioners.
Another name is box air conditioner, which refers to the shape of the unit. You may even see them listed as window wall box air conditioners. But don’t let all the names confuse you, they’re all similar units.
The benefits of window air conditioners are in their simplicity. They’ve been around for a while and, as a tried-and-tested technology, you can be completely confident that they will perform the job of keeping you cool when you need it.
The installation is straightforward and the units themselves are definitely an affordable refrigerated air conditioning option. Air Con Service Near Me can supply and install any brand of window wall air conditioner and even take away your old one, if required.

Window Air Conditioner Servicing
Window air conditioners are quite enduring appliances that last for a surprisingly long time. But, like other heating and cooling systems, they do need regular maintenance to perform at their best. It’s also important to keep the filter clean.
The detriment to your window AC unit working well is dirt. It affects the efficiency of the evaporator coil and can clog up the fan and block the drain. A service of your air conditioner by Air Con Service Near Me will include a thorough clean of the whole unit and a check of the major components.
We can service and repair window wall air conditioners when it is feasible to do so. It all depends on the age, brand and model you have.

It may be a more cost-effective option to buy a new unit for a long-term solution. That’s another thing Air Con Service Near Me can help you with. We’ve got the knowledge and can recommend the latest window air conditioners on the market.
