Moving an air conditioner may seem simple, but improper handling can reduce cooling performance or even damage the unit. Master Xiao Yijiang shares professional tips for safe relocation:\n\n**Disassembly Process:**\n1. Run the AC in cooling mode to recover refrigerant into the outdoor unit (refrigerant recovery).\n2. Close both high and low-pressure valves.\n3. Cut power and disconnect all connecting lines.\n4. Carefully remove indoor and outdoor units; protect copper tubes from bending or breaking.\n\n**Installation Process:**\n1. Select the new location, install support brackets, and drill wall holes.\n2. Mount the indoor and outdoor units securely.\n3. Connect copper tubes and electrical wiring.\n4. Evacuate air from the system using a vacuum pump (mandatory for inverter ACs).\n5. Open valves to release refrigerant.\n6. Test operation to verify cooling performance and current draw.\n\n**Key Precautions:**\n- Do not bend copper tubes too sharply; tight bends restrict refrigerant flow.\n- If extending copper tubing, additional refrigerant must be added.\n- We recommend a full maintenance check after relocation.\n\nXiao Yijiang's AC relocation service includes disassembly, transport, installation, and testing at transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
