What is included
Supply and installation of split, ducted, cassette and multi split air conditioning for Dubai homes, offices and shops, sized to the room and tested at handover. Most cooling complaints in Dubai trace back to the day the unit was fitted: a pipe run too long or kinked, lines never vacuumed, a drain with no fall. Our own technicians check the room load and the power supply first, fit the unit to the manufacturer's instructions and record the temperatures on a test run. We fit a unit we supply or one you bought, and say so plainly if it is the wrong size for the room.
- Power isolated and the circuit made safe at the board
- Refrigerant recovered with a recovery machine, not vented
- Pipes, cable, drain and brackets stripped back to the wall
- Core holes filled and sealed against water and pests
How we carry out AC removal and disposal
The supply is switched off and proved dead, and the cable is disconnected and made safe or taken back to the board. Refrigerant is drawn out of the system into a recovery cylinder. The pipes are then cut and capped, and the outdoor unit is unbolted and lowered, by rope and two technicians or by hoist for a heavy unit. The indoor unit and its back plate come off the wall. Brackets, trunking and redundant pipe are stripped out, and the core hole is packed and sealed on both faces.
Cutting the pipes on a charged system releases the refrigerant and sprays oil over the wall and whoever is holding the cutter, which is why recovery comes first. Old units left on a roof or balcony in Dubai corrode in the salt air, shed panels in high wind and give pigeons a place to nest. The site visit checks how the units will be brought down and out, since towers ask for lift bookings and protection of the common areas, and whether the wall needs plaster and paint afterwards.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey and diagnosis. A technician inspects the system or surface, takes readings and photographs, and explains what was found in plain language.
- Written quotation. You receive a written quotation against a defined scope before any work starts. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
- Protected, supervised work. The work area is protected and isolated, and the job is carried out by our own technicians under a named supervisor.
- Testing. Every job ends with a measured test suited to the discipline, so the result is a reading and a photograph and not an opinion.
- Report and warranty. The completed report reaches you within the hour. Any failed point is put right free of charge within 48 hours.

AC Removal and Disposal in Dubai Creek Harbour: what we plan for
Dubai Creek Harbour is a waterfront district of high rise residences beside the Ras Al Khor wildlife sanctuary, including Dubai Creek Residences, Creekside 18, Harbour Views, The Grand and the Address and Palace residences, with the low rise Creek Beach quarter alongside. Across the water, Dubai Festival City holds the Al Badia villas and residences beside the golf course.
Creek side humidity is high all year, and full height glazing shows water marks quickly. Parts of the district are still under construction, so fine dust reaches balconies and AC filters. In towers we coordinate with building management for access to shared plant, and service fan coil units inside the apartment.
Every tower requires a work permit from building management and a service lift booking, which we arrange. Al Badia is gated and visits are registered by the resident.

Questions about AC removal and disposal in Dubai Creek Harbour
What does AC removal and disposal include?
Redundant units are isolated from the power, their refrigerant is recovered into a cylinder, and the indoor unit, outdoor unit, pipes and brackets are taken down and carried away. The work includes power isolated and the circuit made safe at the board; refrigerant recovered with a recovery machine, not vented; pipes, cable, drain and brackets stripped back to the wall.
What happens to the old unit?
After the refrigerant has been recovered, the units go for recycling, where the copper, aluminium and steel are separated. If a unit still works and you want to keep it or pass it on, we cap it properly so that it can be fitted again.
Do you repair the wall after removal?
We fill and seal the core hole and take out the fixings as part of the job. Plastering and repainting the patch where the indoor unit hung can be added to the scope, and it is listed as a separate item in the quotation.
How much does AC removal and disposal cost in Dubai Creek Harbour?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: size and type of the system or surface; present condition and ease of access. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides AC removal and disposal in Dubai Creek Harbour?
The MELLS provides AC removal and disposal in Dubai Creek Harbour. The work is carried out by people The MELLS employs directly, under a named supervisor, 08:00 to 19:00, Monday to Saturday. To arrange it, book a site visit on this page or call +971 55 444 0084.
How long does AC removal and disposal take?
Typically half a day for one split unit, longer for ducted systems. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Do you install air conditioners in Dubai Creek Harbour?
Yes. Our own technicians install split, ducted, cassette and multi split systems across Dubai. A site visit comes first, to check the room, the power supply and where the outdoor unit can go, and the scope is then put in writing.
Can you install a unit I have already bought?
Yes. We fit units supplied by us or by you. If the one you have bought is the wrong size for the room we tell you before it goes on the wall. An oversized unit cools fast but leaves the air damp, and an undersized one runs all day without reaching the set temperature.
What size of air conditioner does my room need?
Capacity follows the heat the room gains, not only its floor area. Glazing that faces the afternoon sun, ceiling height, a roof directly above, the number of people and any kitchen or equipment all add load. We measure and work it out at the site visit.
How do your crews get access to Dubai Creek Harbour?
Every tower requires a work permit from building management and a service lift booking, which we arrange. Al Badia is gated and visits are registered by the resident.
Do you arrange building permits in Dubai Creek Harbour?
Yes. We submit the work permit and book the service lift with building management before the visit.
How do I choose a company for AC removal and disposal in Dubai Creek Harbour?
Ask four things: who employs the people who will come, whether the scope is written down before work starts, how the result is checked, and what happens if something is missed. The MELLS uses its own staff, quotes in writing after a site visit, checks every job (a measured test for every job, with photographs before and after) and puts right any failed check free of charge within 48 hours.
Can you come to Dubai Creek Harbour at short notice?
Yes. Crews travel from our Barsha Heights base, and urgent work in Dubai is attended within two hours between 08:00 and 19:00, Monday to Saturday.
