Who Should Be Boxing Up Aircon Trunking?

Featured Replies

It should be aircon guy, right ?

How come my aircon guy says he does not do that ? :unsure:

Contractor.

He'll do box up and touch up.

air con guy only do the trunking.

boxing up is done either by plaster guy or carpenter. depending on what u intend to use to box up

after boxing up, would there be problems accessing the trunking IF there are problems with installation?

sorry but I'm just a novice..thanks

what material can be used for boxing up?

if pipes do not leak I guess you dont ever need to touch the boxed up parts.

If suay, then have to tear away box up

If condensation take place then it will damage the box-up. Do make sure the air con man do a good insulation.

thanks simplez and strawberry8

I will take note.

seriously, I never seen people boxing up aircon trunking. It is expensive n not so effective in my opinion because you can just paint over the trunking. When there is leakage, need to remove box up. In addition, also troublesome if u decided to replace trunking.

boxing up is to beautify the place. but also causes problems in future if pipes are leaking or needs to be replaced.

I have a friend who find the air con trunking running from her bedroom to the toilet very eyesore and she get it box-up.

I guess it is up to individual preferences.

Hi Simplez

Has good insulation anything to do with Class0 and Class 1? What do they refer to? I am so lost in these aircon tech terms. Pls help!

the class rating of insulation actually refers to the fire retardation. class 0 insulation is actually more resistant to fire as compared to class 1. no difference in insulation properties. at least that is what i was told
