Installation (with pictures)

Special thanks to Ganesh for this time and effort in taking these pictures (and much more in my hard disk) during his airconditioner installation.


It is quie normal to use duct tape to join the insulation together. The other method is to use suitable glue.


AC Materials (Insulation)
- In this case, the brand is "Superlon".
- 1/4" ID means 1/4 inches internal diameter.
- 1/2" TK means 1/2 inches in thickness.
- What is perhaps missing is the 'Class' standard. It should be preferbably 'Class 1' or 'Class O'


AC Material (PVC Drainage Pipe)
- In this case, the brand is 'Everrise Superjet'
- 16mm means 16mm in external diameter.


AC Material (Copper Pipe)
- In this case, the brand is 'Totaline'
- OD 9.52mm means Outer Diameter 9.52mm
- Thickness 0.61m / 23 SWG means 0.61mm thick / 23 Standard Wire Gauge
- Length 15m means this copper comes in 15meters per set.


Good work practice
-the worker uses the carton box from the airconditioner as a protection to the owner's flooring. This is especially important if your's is a laminated or parquet flooring. Surely the other choice is to have your airconditoner piping installation completed first before the flooring.


Noticed how the installer uses the trunking to make a protrusion around the stainless steel bracket mounting. When everything is completed, the installer will use a plywood to cover it so it looks like a 'box up'.


This is how a 'Back to Back' installation will look like from the 'other side'. Basically you will not see any trunking as the piping is hacked through from behind.


This is how Sharp Plasmacluster looks like during the dark when the Plasmacluster function is in operation.

    Nice post—seeing the step-by-step installation photos really helps people understand how much detail actually goes into a proper aircon setup.
    A lot of homeowners in Singapore don’t realize that installation quality is just as important as the aircon brand itself. Things like correct piping routes, proper drainage slope, secure mounting, and insulation all directly affect long-term performance, energy efficiency, and leakage prevention. Even small mistakes during installation can lead to costly repairs later on.
    At MET Engineering, we always emphasize that professional workmanship is the foundation of a reliable cooling system. That’s why proper planning and execution during installation is key—not just for performance today, but for durability over years of use. For anyone maintaining or upgrading their system, quality installation goes hand-in-hand with regular Aircon Service in Singapore to keep everything running smoothly.
    Thanks for sharing this detailed visual guide—it’s a great reference for both homeowners and technicians.
