Aircon Pipe Extension — Extra Copper Pipe & Drain Runs in your area

An aircon pipe extension covers the extra copper refrigerant pipe or condensate drain run needed when your indoor and outdoor units are further apart than the standard installation length allows. On Borigandee, describe the job, compare quotes from ID-verified air-con pros near you, and pay only when you approve the finished work.

What's covered

A pro can quote for any of the following:

• Additional copper refrigerant line extension beyond the length included in a standard installation
• Extra AC copper pipe run routed along walls, ceilings, or through conduit to reach a non-standard unit position
• Extended condensate drain run to an appropriate drainage point
• Pipe insulation and protective trunking for the additional run
• Pressure testing and leak check after the extension is complete

Typically outside this scope — ask for a separate quote: new bracket or wall penetration if the structure is reinforced concrete or tile; electrical wiring upgrades to the indoor or outdoor unit; moving or relocating an existing unit (quoted separately as an air-con move job); repairs to an existing refrigerant circuit fault.

How Borigandee works

1. Describe your job. Tell us roughly how far the pipe needs to run, what type of wall or ceiling it needs to follow, and where the indoor and outdoor units sit.
2. Get up to 5 quotes from verified pros. ID-verified air-con technicians send you clear, itemised quotes based on your description.
3. Compare and book. Review each pro's quote, rating, and vetting badges, then confirm the one that suits you.
4. Payment held safely until you approve. Your payment is held and released to the pro only once you're satisfied with the finished work — and the pro is paid the same day.

Verified pros, real trust

Every pro on Borigandee is ID-verified before they can receive a single quote request. Beyond that, the vetting goes further as pros build their reputation: Reference checked (Bronze tier and above) means their references have been checked independently; Background checked (top tier only) means a formal criminal-record check has been completed. You can see each pro's badge on their profile before you book.

If something about the finished work isn't right, our dispute process is there to sort it out — we can release the payment, arrange a partial release, or process a refund depending on what the situation calls for. Your payment doesn't move until you decide it should.

How pricing works

Extra pipe and drain runs are priced per metre — so the longer the run, the more metres a pro will quote for. The exact rate depends on factors like pipe diameter, insulation spec, the routing required (open wall, trunking, or concealed), and whether a drain extension is included alongside the refrigerant line.

Because every site is a little different, quotes reflect the actual job rather than a flat package price. Each pro sends you a clear, itemised figure with no hidden extras to negotiate afterwards. There's no haggling — what you see in the quote is what you pay.
