For standard bookings, we provide an arrival window of 2 hours (for example, “10am to 12pm”). Our technician will WhatsApp you 30 minutes before arrival. We make every reasonable effort to arrive within the agreed window. In the event of unavoidable delay beyond our control (severe traffic, a prior job overrun), we will notify you promptly and offer to reschedule or continue with the delay if you prefer.

Pricing & Payment
The prices shown on our Pricing page (dubaicoolingexpert.com/pricing/) are accurate and exclude VAT. 5% VAT will be added to the final invoice for all services, residential and commercial alike.
All prices are confirmed in writing via WhatsApp or email before any work begins. The confirmed price is what you pay, no hidden charges, no post-service surprises. If additional work is identified during a visit (for example, a refrigerant leak found during a maintenance visit), we will quote separately and await your approval before proceeding.
Accepted payment methods
- Cash: paid to the technician on completion of service. Technician issues a signed receipt.
- Credit / Debit card: via card terminal brought by the technician.

Invoices unpaid beyond the agreed payment terms may be subject to a fixed delay compensation charge to cover administrative costs, applied per month the invoice remains outstanding, in accordance with UAE commercial law on late payment of commercial debts. We will always contact you first as a reminder before any such charge applies, and the exact amount will be clearly stated on the overdue notice.
A diagnostic/callout fee of AED 219 applies to repair visits where a fault must be diagnosed before a repair quote can be provided. This fee is fully deducted from your repair invoice if you proceed with the repair. If you choose not to proceed after diagnosis, the diagnostic fee is payable.

Cancellations & Rescheduling
| Cancellation Timing | Charge | Notes |

| Emergency / same-day bookings cancelled | AED 219 callout fee | Emergency dispatch costs are non-refundable once the technician has been dispatched. |
Our cancellations: In the rare event that we need to cancel a confirmed appointment (technician illness, emergency, force majeure), we will contact you as early as possible and offer the next available slot at no additional charge. If we cancel with less than 2 hours notice, your next booking is automatically prioritised and the first 30 minutes of the next service are complimentary.
AMC contract cancellations: Annual Maintenance Contracts may be cancelled with 30 days written notice. A pro-rata refund of unused visits will be provided, minus any emergency callouts used at the AMC-preferential rate.
Your Responsibilities
- Provide accurate information: Describe your issue as accurately as you can when booking. Incorrect information (for example, wrong building, wrong AC type) may affect our ability to prepare appropriately and could result in rescheduling.
- Ensure access: The technician must be able to access the AC unit, outdoor condenser, and any relevant ductwork. If building management approval is required, please arrange it before the appointment. No-access visits are subject to the callout fee in Section 06.
- Ensure a safe working environment: The property must be reasonably safe for the technician to work in. If a technician assesses a property as unsafe (for example, exposed electrical hazards, aggressive animals, unsafe access), they are permitted to postpone the visit until safety is confirmed.
- Outdoor unit clearance: If your outdoor unit is covered, caged, or obstructed, please ensure it is accessible before the technician arrives where possible.
- Be present or authorise access: Someone must be present at the property during the service visit, or written authorisation must be provided for the technician to access the property in your absence (for example, with a building manager or neighbour).
- Post-installation requirements: After AC installation, do not operate the unit before the technician confirms it is safe to do so. Follow any operating instructions provided.
- Regular maintenance: To maintain any warranty we provide on repairs or installation, your AC system must be serviced at least once every 3 months. We recommend our AMC for the most convenient way to meet this requirement.
- ⚠️ Tampering After Service
Liability & Limitations
- Direct damage to your property caused by our technicians during a service visit, for example, a dropped tool causing surface damage.
- Faults directly resulting from incorrect installation or repair work we performed.
- Failure to deliver a service we confirmed in writing without reasonable notice.
Limitations on our liability
- Indirect or consequential losses: Where permitted by UAE law, our liability for indirect losses arising from an AC breakdown, such as loss of business revenue or spoiled food, may be limited. This does not affect any right you have under UAE Consumer Protection law that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.
- Pre-existing conditions: We are not liable for faults, defects, or damage that existed before our visit and were not caused or worsened by our work.
- Acts outside our control: We are not liable for service delays or inability to perform caused by access issues you control, power outages, extreme weather, or other force majeure events.
- Third-party equipment: We are not liable for damage to equipment caused by existing electrical faults in your property’s supply, building wiring issues, or voltage problems outside our scope.
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability for personal injury or death caused by our negligence, fraud, gross negligence, wilful misconduct, or any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under UAE law, including UAE Consumer Protection legislation.
