Indicative ranges, not a quotation. Pipe length, condenser position, drilling and the electrical scope move the final number more than the unit does. Eldoraigne is a mix of retrofits into older family homes and replacement work in complexes, and the scheme rules on outdoor positions are often the deciding factor in the complexes.

1980s family housing. The original stock went up without provision for air conditioning, so retrofits mean core drilling, a considered pipe route and usually an electrical addition rather than a simple connection.
A large complex component. The townhouse developments set the approved condenser position and trunking standard, which is a body corporate decision made before the installer arrives.
Cohort replacement. Where a development fitted air conditioning at build, those units share an age and a spec and come up for replacement together across a whole block.
West-facing living areas. A lot of these houses were laid out with living areas facing west, which is comfortable in June and a problem in December. Those rooms are the ones most often undersized.
Response Times and After-Hours
Eldoraigne is well covered from across Centurion and easily reached off the R55 and Hendrik Verwoerd. Complex access is usually the slower part of arranging a visit rather than the distance.
If water is running out of an indoor unit, switch it off at the isolator before anything else. The water damage almost always costs more than the repair does.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does living in a complex or estate change anything?
It changes two things. Access, because your details normally have to be at the gate before the contractor arrives, and equipment, because most Eldoraigne schemes set rules on where a condenser may sit, whether it must be screened and what colour the trunking is. Mention the complex or estate in your request and you avoid both a wasted trip and a revised quote.
My neighbour’s aircon failed and mine is the same age. Should I replace it?
It is a good prompt to have it checked, not a reason to replace it outright. Where houses or units went up in the same phase the machines are usually the same age, brand and spec, so they do tend to fail as a group. A service with running pressures and current draw recorded is the cheap way to find out whether yours is near the end or has years left.
My lounge faces west and never cools properly. What helps?
Deal with the solar gain before you upsize. Film, blinds or external shading on the west glass removes load the unit would otherwise fight, and it costs less than the difference between an 18000 and a 24000 BTU machine plus the running cost that follows. Then size for the load that is left.
How much does the extra pipe run actually add?
Copper is usually quoted somewhere between R350 and R650 a metre installed, which includes the pipe, the insulation, the trunking and the labour to run it. On a large Eldoraigne stand an extra eight or ten metres is common, so it is worth asking for the run to be measured and priced rather than estimated over the phone.
Does Pretoria’s altitude affect what size aircon I need?
Mildly, and it is worth knowing about. At roughly 1,350 m the air is thinner than the sea-level conditions a unit is rated at, so the same machine moves a little less heat for the same airflow. Nobody applies a formula to it on a domestic job, but combined with how hot Pretoria afternoons get it is one of the reasons a borderline room is better served by the next size up than by the smaller unit on the spec sheet.
Does load shedding damage an aircon?
Two things do the damage, and neither is the outage itself. Repeated hard restarts are hard on a compressor that has not had time to equalise, and the surge when supply comes back is a very common cause of control board failure. A time-delay relay and a surge arrester on the circuit deal with both and cost far less than a PCB.
