Terms & Conditions

Last updated: April 2026

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern all services provided by Ocean Fix ("we", "us", "our", "the Company") to customers ("you", "the Customer") in Dubai and the wider UAE. By booking a service, accepting a quote, or entering into an Annual Maintenance Contract with Ocean Fix, you agree to these Terms in full.

Please read these Terms carefully before engaging our services. If you do not agree, please do not proceed with a booking.

1. Our Services

Ocean Fix provides the following services, subject to technical feasibility and the specific scope agreed at time of booking:

  • AC installation (split units, cassette units, ducted systems, VRF/VRV)
  • AC maintenance and servicing (routine and preventive)
  • Emergency AC repair (24/7)
  • Duct cleaning and indoor air quality services
  • Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC)

All services are carried out by qualified, experienced technicians in accordance with Dubai DEWA electrical standards and applicable UAE regulations.

2. Quotes and Pricing

2.1 Free Quotation: Initial quotes are provided free of charge, either over the phone/WhatsApp based on your description, or following a site visit.

2.2 Quote Validity: Written quotes are valid for 14 calendar days from the date of issue, unless otherwise stated. Material and labour costs may vary after this period.

2.3 Approval Required: No chargeable work will commence without your explicit verbal or written approval of the quoted price. For emergency callouts, approval is confirmed when the technician presents the on-site diagnosis quote and you authorise them to proceed.

2.4 Additional Work: If additional faults or requirements are discovered during a service visit that were not included in the original quote, we will inform you immediately and obtain approval before carrying out any additional work. You are under no obligation to accept additional work.

2.5 Transparent Pricing: Our quotes include all labour and standard consumables. Parts, refrigerant top-ups, and specialist materials will be itemised separately.

3. Payment Terms

3.1 Residential Services: Payment is due upon completion of the service visit, unless otherwise agreed in writing. We accept cash and bank transfer.

3.2 Commercial and AMC Contracts: Payment terms for commercial clients and AMC contracts are agreed in the individual contract. Standard terms are 30 days from invoice date.

3.3 Late Payments: Invoices unpaid after the due date may attract an administrative charge. Repeat non-payment may result in suspension of contracted services.

3.4 Deposits: For large installation projects or commercial contracts, a deposit of up to 30% of the total project value may be required before work commences. This will be stated clearly in your written quote.

4. Service Warranty

4.1 Workmanship Warranty: All labour carried out by Ocean Fix technicians is warranted for 90 days from the date of service. If the same fault recurs within this period and is attributable to our work, we will rectify it at no additional labour charge.

4.2 Parts Warranty: Replacement parts supplied by Ocean Fix carry the manufacturer's warranty, which will be passed on to you. Warranty periods vary by part and manufacturer — we will advise you at point of sale.

4.3 Warranty Exclusions: The workmanship warranty does not cover:

  • Faults caused by misuse, neglect, or third-party interference after our visit
  • Normal wear and tear or consumable degradation (filters, capacitors after extended use)
  • Pre-existing conditions not related to the work we carried out
  • Issues arising from power surges, water damage, or acts of nature
  • Refrigerant loss due to a separate, unrelated leak discovered after our service

4.4 Manufacturer Warranty: For units we install, the manufacturer's warranty applies separately and is subject to the manufacturer's own terms. Warranty claims for manufacturer defects must be directed to the manufacturer or their authorised service centre.

5. Cancellations and Rescheduling

5.1 Customer Cancellations: You may cancel or reschedule a booked appointment at no charge, provided you give at least 4 hours' notice before the scheduled visit time. Please notify us via WhatsApp or phone.

5.2 Short-Notice Cancellations: Cancellations with less than 4 hours' notice may incur a callout fee to cover the technician's travel time and scheduling disruption. We will advise you of any applicable fee at the time of cancellation.

5.3 No-Access Visits: If our technician arrives at the agreed time and is unable to access the property due to reasons within your control, a callout fee may apply.

5.4 Our Cancellations: We reserve the right to reschedule appointments due to operational reasons (e.g., technician unavailability due to an emergency). We will contact you as early as possible and offer the earliest available alternative slot.

6. Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC)

6.1 Contract Term: AMC agreements are for a period of 12 months from the contract start date, unless otherwise specified in writing.

6.2 Renewal: Contracts will be offered for renewal 30 days before expiry. Pricing for the renewal period will be confirmed in writing.

6.3 Early Termination: If you wish to cancel an AMC before its expiry date, a cancellation fee equivalent to the value of services already provided (or a minimum of one service visit charge, whichever is greater) may apply.

6.4 Scope: The specific services, visit frequency, and inclusions of your AMC are defined in your individual contract. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the specific AMC contract, the AMC contract prevails.

6.5 Emergency Callouts: Priority emergency callouts under an AMC are provided at the discounted rates stated in your contract. An emergency callout is defined as a fault resulting in complete loss of cooling. Routine service requests are handled within standard scheduling.

7. Customer Responsibilities

To enable us to deliver services safely and effectively, you agree to:

  • Provide safe and unobstructed access to all AC units requiring service
  • Ensure an adult (18+) is present at the property during the service visit
  • Disclose any known hazards at the property (e.g., asbestos, structural issues, live electrical faults)
  • Ensure the property's electrical supply is functioning and safe before the visit
  • Provide accurate information about the AC units, including any previous repairs or modifications by third parties

Failure to meet these responsibilities may result in the visit being rescheduled and a callout fee being applied.

8. Limitation of Liability

8.1 Ocean Fix's liability for any claim arising from our services is limited to the value of the specific service or contract from which the claim arises.

8.2 We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or incidental losses — including but not limited to loss of earnings, property damage unrelated to our work, or costs arising from AC downtime — except where such loss results directly from our negligence or wilful misconduct.

8.3 We carry public liability insurance covering accidental damage to your property caused by our technicians in the course of their work. Any such claim must be reported to us within 48 hours of the service visit.

8.4 We are not liable for pre-existing faults, structural deficiencies, or third-party modifications to AC systems that were not disclosed to us prior to the service visit.

9. Health, Safety, and Compliance

All work is carried out in compliance with Dubai DEWA regulations, UAE Federal Law on electrical safety, and applicable health and safety standards. Our technicians are authorised to refuse or halt work if they assess that site conditions present an unacceptable safety risk. In such cases, we will advise you of the issue and the remediation required before work can safely proceed.
