The Singapore Specialist in Tecno Aircon Servicing & Repair
Choosing a Tecno air conditioner means you’ve made a practical, convenient, and affordable choice to solve your immediate cooling needs. As a brand with a history in Singapore spanning over five decades, Tecno offers accessible solutions, particularly with its portable and casement air conditioners, for those who face budget, rental, or structural constraints.
However, many Tecno owners find that the convenience of their unit can be overshadowed by frustrating performance issues like excessive noise, water leaks, or inefficient cooling. When problems arise, the widespread brand confusion between Tecno home appliances and the unrelated Tecno Mobile phone company can make finding a qualified and knowledgeable technician a challenge.
At Vedha Aircon, we cut through the confusion. We are your local Singaporean specialists with expert knowledge of the Tecno home appliance brand. We understand the specific mechanical and operational challenges of portable and casement air conditioners and provide the expert, reliable solutions to fix their common problems fast.

Our Specialized Tecno Aircon Services
Our services are laser-focused on Tecno’s core product offerings in Singapore, ensuring you receive genuinely expert care.
Professional Repair for Your Tecno Portable Aircon (TAC1200 & more)
Portable air conditioners are complex, self-contained machines that require specialized knowledge.
- Solving Cooling Inefficiency: If your TAC1200 is blowing warm air, we’ll perform a full diagnostic, checking for the most common culprits: a clogged air filter, a refrigerant leak, or an improperly sealed exhaust hose that is venting hot air back into your room.
- Fixing Water Leaks: We solve messy water leaks at the source. We’ll check for a full internal condensate tank, clear any blockages in the drain hose, and diagnose a frozen evaporator coil, providing a complete and lasting solution.
- Reducing Excessive Noise: We can diagnose the source of loud rattling, buzzing, or grinding noises, tightening loose internal components or replacing worn-out fan motor bearings to restore quieter operation.
Expert Servicing for Your Tecno Casement Aircon (TAC823i & more)
Your casement unit is a smart, space-saving solution that deserves proper care.
- Inverter Diagnostics: The TAC823i features inverter technology. Our technicians are skilled in diagnosing the electronic faults that can affect these more complex systems.
- Thorough Chemical Cleaning: To maintain the efficiency of your 2-tick rated unit and ensure the air it produces is hygienic, a professional chemical wash is recommended annually to remove the deep-seated mould and bacteria that accumulate in Singapore’s humid climate.
A Troubleshooting Guide for Common Tecno Aircon Problems
Here are the most common issues faced by Tecno owners and what typically causes them.
Why Is My Tecno Aircon Not Cold?
This is the most critical failure. The cause is often one of the following:
- Clogged Air Filters: This is the #1 cause. In Singapore’s environment, filters can get clogged in just a few weeks, severely restricting airflow and preventing cooling.
- Improper Exhaust Hose (Portable Units): For a portable AC like the TAC1200, the exhaust hose must be securely sealed at a window to vent hot air outside. If it’s loose or kinked, hot air leaks back into the room, neutralizing the cooling effect.
- Low Refrigerant (Gas Leak): A gradual decline in cooling performance often indicates a refrigerant leak, which requires professional detection and repair.
- Dirty Coils: The internal evaporator and condenser coils can get caked with dust, preventing them from exchanging heat effectively.
Solving Water Leaks from Your Tecno Unit
Water pooling around your aircon is a messy and common problem.
- Full Condensate Tank (Portable Units): In our high humidity, the unit’s self-evaporation system can get overwhelmed. The internal water tank fills up, and if the safety switch fails, it will leak. The tank needs to be manually drained.
- Clogged Drainage System: The drain line can get clogged with slime and debris, causing water to back up and overflow.
- Frozen Evaporator Coils: Caused by dirty filters, a frozen coil will produce a large amount of water when it melts, overwhelming the drain pan.
Is Your Tecno Aircon Too Noisy?
While convenient, portable and casement units can be noisy. However, sudden or excessive sounds indicate a problem.
- Rattling Sounds: Often caused by loose internal panels or fan blades, a common issue noted in user reviews that can be fixed by a technician.
- Grinding or Squealing: This is a serious warning sign of worn-out bearings in the fan motor, which requires professional replacement.
- Loud Buzzing or Humming: This typically points to an electrical issue, such as a failing capacitor or a struggling compressor.
Understanding Your Tecno Aircon’s Blinking Lights
A blinking light on your Tecno unit signals an internal fault. While specific codes are not widely published, our technicians can diagnose the issue based on industry standards and hands-on experience.
Symptom | Applicable Models | Likely Cause & Recommended Vedha Service |
Blinking Light (General) | TAC1200, TAC823i | Can indicate a wide range of issues, from a simple maintenance alert to a serious electrical fault or compressor malfunction. A power reset (unplugging for 15 minutes) can sometimes clear a minor glitch. Our Action: Professional diagnosis is required for persistent blinking to identify the true fault. |
Unit Stops Cooling, Light Blinks | TAC1200, TAC823i | The system’s sensors may have detected a problem like low refrigerant, a frozen coil, or an overheating compressor, triggering a protective shutdown. Our Action: We will diagnose the underlying cause of the shutdown, whether it’s a gas leak, a dirty coil, or a faulty component, and perform the necessary repair. |
“FL” or Full Tank Light (Portable) | TAC1200 | This is not a fault, but an indicator that the internal condensate water tank is full. The unit has shut down its cooling function to prevent an overflow. User Action: You must manually drain the water from the unit’s drain port. If the error persists after draining, the float switch may be faulty, requiring our professional service. |
