"Their chemical wash service is night and day. My aircon was barely cooling, and now it feels like a brand new unit. The technician explained everything clearly. Highly recommend PG1!"

Deep cleaning that dismantles the unit to clear bacteria, mould, and grime — restoring cooling and air quality.
We know exactly how frustrating a struggling aircon is in Penang. The heat outside is brutal, and your room just refuses to cool down.
Our team has spent over 15 years on aircon service across Penang at PG1 Aircond, and a proper chemical wash changes everything.
We strip away the hidden grime that chokes your system to give you immediate results:
This deep cleaning stops your unit from wasting electricity and restores ice-cold air. Our process is simple and completely transparent.
Let me show you exactly how this works.
We dismantle the indoor unit to treat every single part that touches your air. This deep cleaning goes far beyond a quick wipe with a wet cloth.
Our technicians use specific non-corrosive alkaline solutions to break down stubborn dirt. Industry data from platforms like Recommend.my confirms that regular water simply cannot dissolve the thick layers of bio-slime found inside most units.
We always want our customers to understand the exact value they receive. The table below compares a basic wipe-down with our comprehensive treatment.
| Feature | General Service | Aircon Chemical Wash |
|---|---|---|
| Cleaning Method | Water and brush | Deep chemical soak |
| Coil Treatment | Surface dust removed | 99% of bacteria killed |
| Drainage Pipe | Quick check | High-pressure chemical flush |
| Cooling Recovery | Minimal | Returns to factory levels |
Our chemical process targets six crucial components. Every part requires a specific cleaning technique.
We run a strict temperature drop test after putting everything back together. You get to feel the icy results before anyone leaves your home.
We generally suggest booking a service when your unit starts showing clear warning signs. Ignoring these symptoms usually leads to expensive repairs down the road.
Our data shows that a neglected 1.5HP aircon wastes a massive amount of power. The recent 2026 TNB tariff changes mean that a dirty unit could be costing you an extra RM20 to RM30 every single month.
We look for four specific red flags during a house call. You should watch out for these obvious hints.
We highly recommend a proactive cleaning schedule to avoid these headaches. A routine wash every 6 to 12 months keeps things running perfectly.
Our coastal customers in places like Batu Ferringhi face a different challenge. Salty sea air corrodes metal faster, so those units need attention every 4 to 6 months — you can see exactly what that looks like in our Batu Ferringhi seafront condo case study.
We maintain completely transparent pricing for all our Penang customers. A standard chemical wash for a typical 1.0HP to 1.5HP wall unit costs between RM150 and RM200.
Our pricing reflects the current 2026 market rate for legitimate, thorough work. You should definitely avoid those cheap RM80 offers floating around social media.
We often fix units damaged by contractors using cheap, acidic coil cleaners. Those harsh chemicals actually eat away the delicate aluminium fins over time.
We sometimes encounter units that are simply too dirty for a standard wash. Cooling might not return if the aircon has been ignored for five years.
Our technicians will then suggest a full chemical overhaul instead, which involves:
This intensive process typically costs between RM250 and RM350. We want to ensure you get the right service for your specific situation.
The on-site diagnosis will tell you exactly which option makes financial sense.
We make scheduling your next service incredibly simple. Just snap a quick photo of your indoor and outdoor units.
Our booking team will need a few quick details to get started:
Send those details over WhatsApp, and a custom quote will arrive in minutes. We process these requests rapidly during normal business hours.
You can usually secure a slot within 24 to 48 hours, even during the hot season. Our bulk discounts are perfect if you have multiple rooms to cover.
The per-unit price drops significantly when you book three or more units for an aircon chemical wash. We look forward to helping you beat the heat.
