AC Compressor Problems We Fix Every Day in Dhaka
From clicking sounds to complete breakdowns — these are the compressor faults our team handles most often across Dhaka homes and offices.
Compressor Won’t Start
You hear a clicking sound but the AC doesn’t cool. Often caused by a faulty capacitor, broken relay, or burnt wiring. We trace the root cause instead of guessing — which saves you money on parts you don’t actually need.
Compressor Overheating
Your outdoor unit shuts down after running for a short while. This usually points to refrigerant issues, blocked coils, or internal wear. Left unchecked, overheating can damage the compressor beyond repair.
Strange Noises from the Unit
Rattling, buzzing, or humming that wasn’t there before means something inside is loose, worn, or failing. Ignoring these sounds turns small fixes into major repair bills.
Refrigerant Leak Near Compressor
Your AC blows warm air and you notice oily residue near the outdoor unit. Refrigerant leaks strain the compressor motor and steadily reduce cooling performance throughout your space.
Short Cycling
The system turns on and off every few minutes without reaching the set temperature. This stresses the compressor and drives up your electricity bill without actually cooling the room.
Electrical Component Failure
Capacitors, contactors, and relays wear out over time — especially in Dhaka’s heat and humidity. We replace them with quality parts that actually last, not cheap substitutes that fail again in months.
How Our AC Compressor Repair Works
No runaround. No surprise charges. Here’s exactly what happens when you call us.
Book & Inspect
Call us or book online. A technician arrives at your location in Dhaka, inspects the compressor, and runs electrical and pressure tests to pinpoint the fault.
Clear Diagnosis & Quote
We explain what’s wrong, what it takes to fix it, and give you a straightforward price before any work begins. No hidden charges, no unnecessary upsells.
Expert On-Site Repair
Most compressor repairs are completed the same day at your home or office. We carry common replacement parts to minimize delays and return visits.
Testing & Warranty
After the repair, we run a full cooling cycle test to confirm everything works properly. Every AC repair service comes with our warranty for your peace of mind.
Types of AC Compressors We Repair
Not all compressors are built the same — and they don’t fail the same way either. Our technicians at Ripon Refrigeration Works Ltd. have hands-on experience with every major compressor type used in Dhaka households and commercial buildings.
Scroll Compressors
Found in most modern split AC units. Efficient but can develop valve or motor issues over time. We handle scroll compressor repairs for all major brands installed in Dhaka.
Reciprocating Compressors
Common in older and window AC systems. Prone to piston wear, valve damage, and oil circulation problems. Our team has been fixing these since 2015.
Rotary Compressors
Used in portable and compact AC units. Though generally durable, they can fail due to bearing wear or refrigerant contamination. We fix them right at your location.
Inverter Compressors
Variable-speed units in newer inverter ACs. These require specialized diagnostic tools and trained knowledge — which our technicians use daily across Dhaka city.

What Our Customers Say
Real feedback from Dhaka residents who trusted us with their AC compressor repairs.
“Our split AC compressor stopped working in the middle of summer. Called Ripon Refrigeration and they sent a technician within two hours. Diagnosed a faulty capacitor, replaced it on the spot, and the AC was running again the same evening.”
“The technician was honest — told me the compressor could be repaired instead of pushing for a replacement. Saved me at least 15,000 taka. Fair price and professional work. I’ve already recommended them to my neighbors.”
“Our office AC was short cycling every ten minutes. They found the compressor contactor was burnt out and replaced it quickly. Also suggested we get the AC cleaned which actually improved the airflow noticeably. Good team.”

Frequently Asked Questions About AC Compressor Repair
How much does AC compressor repair cost in Dhaka?
AC compressor repair in Dhaka typically costs between 3,000 and 8,000 BDT depending on the fault. Minor issues like capacitor or relay replacement fall on the lower end. Major repairs involving internal compressor components cost more. At Ripon Refrigeration Works Ltd., we provide an exact quote after inspecting your unit — no guesswork, no hidden fees.
Can a faulty AC compressor be repaired, or does it need replacement?
Many compressor problems can be repaired without replacing the entire unit. Faulty capacitors, worn contactors, electrical failures, and refrigerant leaks are all fixable. However, if the compressor motor is burnt out, the internal valves are severely damaged, or the unit is over 10–12 years old with repeated failures, a replacement usually makes more financial sense. Our technicians give you an honest recommendation either way.
How long does an AC compressor repair take?
Most compressor repairs are completed within 2 to 6 hours on the same day. Simple fixes like capacitor or relay replacement take 1–2 hours. More complex repairs that involve refrigerant recovery and recharging can take up to half a day. We carry common replacement parts in our service vans to avoid delays.
What causes an AC compressor to fail?
The most common causes in Dhaka are electrical component failure (capacitors, relays, contactors), refrigerant leaks that strain the motor, dirty coils causing overheating, power surges and voltage fluctuations, and general wear from age and heavy use during summer months. Regular maintenance like AC cleaning and timely refrigerant top-ups can prevent many of these failures.
Do you provide a warranty on compressor repairs?
Yes. Every compressor repair carried out by Ripon Refrigeration Works Ltd. comes with a service warranty. The exact warranty period depends on the type of repair and replacement parts used — typically 3 to 6 months. If the same fault recurs within the warranty period, we fix it at no additional labor cost.
Which AC compressor brands do you repair?
We repair compressors from all major brands available in Bangladesh including General, Panasonic, Daikin, LG, Samsung, Hitachi, Midea, Gree, Walton, Singer, Sharp, and Toshiba. Whether it’s a scroll, reciprocating, rotary, or inverter compressor, our technicians have the training and tools to handle it.
Is emergency AC compressor repair available at night?
Yes. Ripon Refrigeration Works Ltd. operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across Dhaka city. If your compressor fails in the middle of the night, call 01795634921 and we’ll dispatch a technician to your location as soon as possible.
How do I know if my AC compressor is bad?
Common signs include warm air from vents, loud or unusual noises from the outdoor unit, the circuit breaker tripping when the AC starts, the unit struggling to turn on (hard starting), visible vibration in the outdoor unit, and the AC running continuously without reaching the set temperature. If you notice any of these, get in touch with our team for a proper diagnosis before the damage worsens.
Don’t Wait Until Your Compressor Fails Completely
A struggling compressor drives up your electricity bill and risks permanent damage to your entire AC system. The sooner you get it checked, the simpler and cheaper the fix tends to be.
