We buy and sell air conditioners — both used and new. This isn't a side business separate from servicing; it's a natural extension of it: the people who repair air conditioners every day are the best placed to know what one is actually worth.
We buy your old unit
When you replace an AC, the old unit becomes a problem: heavy, in the way, and disposing of it costs you money rather than returning any. We buy it.
But be wary of anyone who quotes you a price over the phone without seeing the unit. A used AC's value is determined by things that don't show up in a photograph — namely:
- Has the compressor ever burned out? This is the single most important question. A burnout leaves acids throughout the circuit, and they stay in the pipework and will destroy any replacement compressor. A unit whose compressor has burned out is worth far less — and may be worth nothing as a working unit at all.
- The condition of the condenser coil. In Jazan especially, salt corrosion perforates the coil from the outside in. A corroded coil means a permanent leak, and replacing it approaches the price of a new unit.
- Is the circuit actually sealed? A unit that loses its refrigerant every season isn't a working unit — it's a unit with a leak nobody has found.
- Age, brand and parts availability. A unit running on R‑22 keeps losing value, because the refrigerant itself is being phased out.
We inspect the unit, tell you what we found, and give you a price based on its actual condition — not on how it looks from the outside.
And we sell used units — inspected, not "as-is"
A used AC is a practical, sensible choice — provided you know what you're buying. The problem with the market is that most used equipment is sold "as-is", meaning the entire risk sits with you.
What we do is different: every unit we sell has been through our hands. We check the compressor, pressure-test the circuit for leaks, inspect the coil for corrosion, and run it to measure its actual performance — pressures, current draw, temperature split. And we tell you its age and condition honestly.
If it's a unit we don't trust, we won't sell it to you. Selling something that fails in two months isn't profit — it's a customer lost and a reputation damaged.
And we sell new units
And if replacement is genuinely the right decision, we supply the new unit and install it. Our advantage here is that we are not an agent for any brand — we take no commission from a manufacturer, and we have no interest in steering you toward a particular name.
We advise based on your city and your usage: in Jazan, corrosion resistance matters more than any efficiency rating. In Khamis Mushait, how easily the coil can be accessed for cleaning matters far more than most buyers realise. In Abha, handling humidity is the consideration.
The whole transaction in one visit
And this is the practical difference: we buy the old one, supply the new or the inspected used one, install it, and remove and take away the old unit — one transaction, one company.
And when we remove your old unit, we pump the refrigerant down and recover it rather than venting it to the air. That's the environmentally correct method, and it's also what preserves the value of the unit we're buying from you.
When we'll tell you not to sell
Sometimes we'll tell you your unit is worth repairing rather than selling. If the fault is a capacitor or a contactor — the most common in Jazan — the repair is cheap and your unit will run for years more. Selling it to us in that situation would be a loss for you, and we'll say so even when the deal would suit us.
