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.
- Plinth and roof checked for the weight of the new unit
- Crane or hoist position and community access agreed in advance
- Duct connections made with flexible collars and sealed
- Condensate drain trapped and led to a roof outlet
How we carry out rooftop package unit installation
Many Dubai villas are cooled by package units on the roof, one for each floor or wing. The unit arrives complete and is lifted by crane or hoist onto a concrete plinth or a steel frame, with vibration pads beneath. Supply and return ducts connect through flexible collars so the fan does not shake the ductwork. The power cable and isolator are matched to the nameplate, the condensate drain is trapped and run to a roof outlet, and the unit is started with airflow, running current and air temperatures recorded.
A roof in full sun is the hardest place an air conditioner can work, and duct insulation up there breaks down in a few years if it is not clad. Leaking duct joints cool the roof instead of the bedrooms. A new unit seldom lines up with the old duct openings, so the roof sections are remade. In gated communities a crane on the street and a unit visible on the roof may need the master developer's consent, which we identify at the site visit along with the plinth condition and the supply.
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.

Rooftop Package Unit Installation in Mirdif: what we plan for
Mirdif is one of Dubai's established family districts, east of the airport, with streets of private villas built from the 1990s onwards, the townhouses of Shorooq and Mushrif Village, and apartments at Uptown Mirdif, Ghoroob, Mirdif Hills and Mirdif Tulip. Al Warqa, Al Mizhar, Al Rashidiya, Nad Al Hamar and Al Khawaneej surround it with larger private villas.
Many homes here are twenty to thirty years old, so AC ducts, water tanks, roofs and bathrooms have had time to collect what newer communities have not seen yet. Mature gardens bring leaf litter and irrigation marks, and dust settles quickly on sills, roofs and outdoor furniture. In villas of this age the AC ducts, drain lines, water heaters, pumps and rooftop tanks are usually due for attention. We inspect first and report what is urgent and what can wait.
Most streets are open, with no community gate, and we park at the villa. Apartment communities such as Ghoroob, Uptown Mirdif and Mirdif Hills need a work permit from building management, which we arrange.

Questions about rooftop package unit installation in Mirdif
What does rooftop package unit installation include?
Rooftop package units hold the compressor, coils and fans in one casing on the villa roof, set on a plinth or steel frame and joined to the supply and return ducts below. The work includes plinth and roof checked for the weight of the new unit; crane or hoist position and community access agreed in advance; duct connections made with flexible collars and sealed.
Can a package unit be replaced without changing the ducts?
The main ducts inside the villa normally stay. The short sections on the roof are remade to fit the new unit, and we inspect the existing duct for leaks and failed insulation while it is open, since a new unit on leaking duct will still cool poorly.
Is a crane always needed?
For most rooftop package units a crane is needed because of the weight, though some smaller units can go up by hoist. Where the crane stands, the road access and the time slot are arranged with the community once the site visit has shown what the lift involves.
How much does rooftop package unit installation cost in Mirdif?
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 rooftop package unit installation in Mirdif?
The MELLS provides rooftop package unit installation in Mirdif, Dubai. 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 rooftop package unit installation take?
Typically half a day for one split unit, longer for ducted systems. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
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.
Can a split unit be fitted in any apartment?
No. The building decides where an outdoor unit may stand, and towers on chilled water do not take split units at all. We check the system and the building rules at the site visit and prepare the paperwork that management asks for.
How do your crews get access to Mirdif?
Most streets are open, with no community gate, and we park at the villa. Apartment communities such as Ghoroob, Uptown Mirdif and Mirdif Hills need a work permit from building management, which we arrange.
Do you work in older villas in Mirdif?
Yes. Much of our work in Mirdif, Al Warqa and Al Mizhar is in villas twenty years old or more, where the supervisor checks ducts, tanks, roofs and bathrooms at the site visit and writes what was found into the quotation.
How do I choose a company for rooftop package unit installation in Mirdif?
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 Mirdif 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.
