Why professionals trust us with their air conditioning
When an air conditioning system stops working properly in a professional environment, it is not just discomfort. It directly impacts your business.
Your need is clear: everything must work, without you having to worry about it. That is why we structure our work around four key requirements:
- reliable and continuous operation,
- fast response and effective solutions when needed,
- proven equipment with no experimental installations,
- clean, organised and fully controlled interventions.
Working with Expertubes means securing a reliable system over the long term and relying on a team that truly takes care of your needs.
Air conditioning installation
Each installation begins with a technical study on site to define the most suitable configuration, taking into account surface areas, air circulation, occupancy levels, visual constraints and accessibility.
We install wall-mounted and multi-split systems, ducted systems, cassette units, VRV/VRF systems and heat pumps, depending on your space, your needs and your budget. We mainly work with the Daikin brand, but also with other proven brands such as Gree for tighter budgets, ensuring maximum reliability and efficient maintenance.
Before preparing the quote, we present several technical and budgetary scenarios tailored to your establishment so you can make an informed decision. During installation, there are no surprises: we deliver exactly what was planned. Reliability comes first.
Air conditioning repairs
In a professional environment, a breakdown must be handled quickly and efficiently. We focus on responsiveness and accurate diagnosis.
- repairs are carried out from Monday to Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
- We service all brands.
- Clear diagnosis and rapid recommissioning are our top priorities, backed by priority access to genuine Daikin spare parts.
In case of emergency, such as business disruption, risk of closure or critical temperatures, we do our best to prioritise your request.
As a Daikin Ambassador, we benefit from priority access to spare parts, significantly reducing repairs times, especially during peak summer periods.

Maintenance and annual contracts
Maintenance is essential to ensure service continuity and limit issues during periods of activity.
Annual maintenance
Includes unit cleaning, system checks and adjustment of operating parameters
Deep cleaning
For businesses open to the public or with on-site employees, air quality is a responsibility.
Poorly maintained systems can harbour bacteria and microbes. For installations that have not been maintained for a long time or during a business takeover, we offer intensive steam cleaning without toxic products. The cleaning is fast, has no impact on the cleanliness of your premises and delivers impressive results.
Maintenance contract
With a maintenance contract, you benefit from priority intervention, preventive diagnostics before summer, reduced risk of breakdowns and continuous operation without unpleasant surprises.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions from professional clients
Still have questions? You might find the answer among our FAQs section. For more specific needs, contact us and we will be happy to assist you.
What air conditioning capacity is required for my surface area and occupancy?
Air conditioning capacity is not determined by surface area alone.
Several factors must be considered, including room size and volume, ceiling height, insulation, sun exposure, number of occupants and type of activity.
An undersized system will run continuously and wear out quickly, while an oversized system will cycle too frequently and reduce comfort. The ideal solution is to size the installation after an on-site visit and precise measurements.
Contact us to schedule an appointment.
What is the difference between residential and commercial air conditioning?
Systems designed for businesses face different constraints, including more intensive use, longer daily operating hours, varying occupancy levels, larger volumes and higher requirements for reliability and service continuity.
Commercial systems are designed to provide stable comfort continuously, with better airflow management and power suited to public-access spaces.
How long does installation take in an operating business?
Most installations are completed within 1 to 3 days, depending on the configuration. When the establishment remains open, work is organised to minimise disruption, with site preparation carried out in advance and certain equipment installed outside customer areas where possible.
The goal is simple: minimise the impact on your business activity.
Can air conditioning run continuously without loss of performance?
Yes, provided the system is correctly sized and properly maintained. Modern systems are designed to operate continuously by modulating their output, which is more efficient than frequent start-stop cycles.
Key factors for maintaining performance include regular cleaning, clean filters, annual inspections and absence of leaks.
A drop in performance is almost always a sign of insufficient maintenance or incorrect settings. Contact us for a diagnostic.
What maintenance obligations apply to other buildings open to the public?
Air conditioning systems used in shops, offices, restaurants and other buildings open to the public must be maintained regularly to ensure hygiene, safety and service continuity.
We recommend an annual visit including:
- cleaning of indoor and outdoor units,
- inspection of connections,
- verification of operating parameters and detection of wear that could lead to breakdowns during peak season.
Given the heavy use of equipment during summer, preventive maintenance helps maintain performance, preserve air quality and limit unexpected shutdowns, which are particularly critical for other buildings open to the public
What is the average lifespan of equipment?
A well-maintained commercial air conditioning system typically lasts between 10 and 15 years.
Factors that extend lifespan include annual maintenance, regular cleaning, properly designed initial installation and proven equipment.
Neglected or poorly sized systems deteriorate much faster.
What should be done if the current installation is too noisy?
Noise usually comes from fans, poor unit placement, incorrect settings, lack of maintenance or ageing equipment.
Possible solutions include adjustment or maintenance, relocating the unit, or replacing equipment if necessary.
Modern systems are designed to operate much more quietly.
How can a stable temperature be maintained in a high-traffic space?
Commercial air conditioning systems can automatically adjust output based on occupancy, door openings and outdoor temperature.
In high-traffic environments such as restaurants and shops, the key is not only power, but the correct system configuration, whether cassette, ducted or VRV/VRF, combined with settings adapted to real usage conditions.
