Back-to-back aircon installations are one of the most popular options among homeowners and small businesses in Pretoria — and for good reason. At Van Biljoens Appliance Services, we perform dozens of these installations every month due to their affordability and convenience.
What Is Back-to-Back Aircon Installations
A back-to-back installation means that the indoor unit and outdoor unit are mounted on opposite sides of the same wall. This minimizes the amount of piping and cabling required, which in turn reduces both labour and material costs.
Key Benefits:
- Faster installation: Most back-to-back setups can be completed in under 3 hours.
- Lower cost: It’s the most affordable way to install a split-unit air conditioner.
- Neat and clean: Fewer visible pipes and ducts.
When Is It the Right Choice?
Consider a back-to-back installation if:
- You have an exterior-facing room (e.g., bedroom or office against an outside wall).
- You want to minimize installation costs.
- You’re installing a unit in a standard residential or office space.
When You Might Need a Custom Installation:
If your room does not face an exterior wall, or you want the outdoor unit positioned away from view (e.g., in a backyard), a non-back-to-back installation may be needed — and we can help with that too!
Final Thoughts:
Back-to-Back aircon installations are ideal for many Pretoria homes, especially if you’re working within a budget. At Van Biljoens, we offer competitive pricing on all our midwall split inverter aircons, and our team of certified installers ensures everything runs smoothly.
