Electrician disconnect air conditioner

$150

Woonona NSW 2517, Australia

28th May 2025

I need my Actron ducted air con unit disconnected from power and moved about 40 cm to the left (I can assist with the lifting if required). If it can't move that far due to hose length, just as far to the left as it can be safely moved so I can waterproof behind it. I don't want to disconnect anything other than the power. I will then apply waterproofing to the wall behind it. After waterproofing is complete and cured, which will take a couple of days, I'll need a return visit to move it back again and reconnect it.

Excellent. On time, respectful and quality work.
