HDB Aircon Installation Regulation

Air-Conditioners

Regular maintenance of your air-conditioner will help prolong its lifespan and keep it running efficiently. It is also important to check the brackets holding up the air-conditioner condenser as any loose bolts or improper installation can result in accidents.

Maintenance tips

Have your air-conditioner serviced regularly by a licenced service provider. Ask the service provider whether your condenser unit requires a replacement of brackets due to rust and corrosion.
In addition, clean the air-filters of your air-conditioners to maintain optimal airflow.

Penalties

Under the Building Control Act, homeowners can face a penalty of up to S$5,000 and/ or jail term of up to six months for improper installation of air conditioner.
In addition, flat owners can also face a fine of up to $10,000 and/ or a jail term of up to one year, if the air-conditioner falls due to lack of maintenance, under the Building Maintenance and Strata Management Act (BMSMA).
