If you are staying in Singapore and wondering why many air conditioner repair and servicing companies remain closed on Sundays, there are many reasons behind it. In Singapore, there are mainly condos. Additionally, due to certain regulations, work permits are not required for servicing air conditioners on Sundays. Therefore, we cannot provide aircon servicing on Sundays. But this is not the only reason. There are many reasons why we cannot provide servicing in the condominium on this day.
What Are The Reasons?
Many people wonder what the reasons are for not servicing the air conditioning in condominiums. But many people fail to get the actual answer. To break this curiosity, here is the answer for you all. There are 6 reasons behind not providing servicing for the condominiums on Sundays.
1. Condo Rules
The primary reason for not servicing air conditioners in condos on Sundays in Singapore is the country’s rules. There are certain policies applicable to everyday condominiums in Singapore, and some of these policies are valid for all condominiums. One of them, which was added recently, is that no air conditioner servicing teams will be allowed inside the premises of condominiums on Sundays. It is a legal policy, which is why many reliable and reputable services do not operate on Sundays. Even for this rule, we do not provide services on Sunday. If you are living in a condo, you will know the rule, and breaking this rule can land you in big trouble as well. So, just for a day, we keep the business closed.
2. Weekend
Every business needs at least a holiday. Since Sunday is a worldwide weekend, we also close our business on this day. Moreover, the maximum number of condominiums here in Singapore is allowed to have a servicing on this day. We have also declared a holiday for this day, including weekends. Our company is open six days a week, except on Sundays. So, this is one of the reasons why we cannot provide aircon servicing to you on Sundays for the condominiums. No matter how high the fee or rent you pay, you are not legally allowed to carry out any servicing.
3. Official Holiday
Sundays are officially declared as a holiday or weekend all over the world. Today, all employees, including experts and technicians who will provide the servicing, are on holiday. As a legally recognized company, we adhere to all rules and regulations established by the housing and commercial sectors. Since this day is officially declared a holiday for the majority of commercial buildings, businesses, and services are not allowed in condos, we have decided to declare a holiday for servicing air conditioners on this day.
4. License Does Not Permit
As a legal company with a valid license, we are required to comply with the laws. Our license does not permit working on Sundays in the condos. So, if you are staying in a condo, then we cannot provide an aircon servicing to you. We are registered with the government, and therefore, you cannot expect us to break any laws or rules set by the government or any governing bodies. It may hamper our image or reputation in the market. We are professional experts who work within specific regulations and guidelines. That is our company’s policy, and therefore, we are able to provide services on Sundays.
5. Insurance Not Available
We are an insured company providing aircon servicing all over Singapore. Being insured, we ensure that if any property or person is damaged or injured during the work, insurance is available to cover the costs. However, since we are a registered company, if we work in any condominiums on Sundays for air conditioning servicing, insurance will not be provided for any loss or damage to the property or persons. This can be a serious issue for both the tenants and us. Therefore, we do not provide any servicing of air conditioners in condominiums on Sundays. The insurance policy in Singapore is structured in a way that it does not cover any damages or losses that occur on this day. Any reliable and insured air conditioner servicing company will keep these things in mind.
6. Tenants Are Responsible
In the event of any damage or legal issues arising from the air conditioner service in the condos, the tenants are solely responsible for such losses. We may face legal actions, which is why we avoid working on Sundays. We do not want any problems related to legal action for us or the tenants. That is why we want to avoid all the problems related to laws. Therefore, we prefer to abide by all laws and rules established according to the Singapore standard.
These are essentially the six reasons why we do not provide air conditioning services for condos in Singapore on Sundays. Moreover, since we are experienced, we know that the problems that arise from breaking this law can be fatal for both clients and the business. It can cause serious injuries, damages, and losses without providing any coverage from insurance companies. Thus, we do not provide air conditioning servicing to residents of the condo in Singapore.
Conclusion
Many people wonder why companies do not provide services to repair or service the air conditioners on Sundays. These are the main reasons behind this. We understand that an air conditioning system can stop working at any time of the day without any warning. The reasons behind the failure of the air conditioners are too many. But the actual reasons behind not providing services are not always explained by the companies. However, we care to explain to our customers and clients the reason behind it. Therefore, aircon servicing is not valid in Singapore on Sundays for people living in condos.
