Why Your AC Needs More Than Just a Repair Call — Introducing HandySquad's Annual AC Maintenance Plans
Kerala summers don't give you a warning. One afternoon your AC is running fine, and the next, it's dead — right when you need it the most. And then comes the technician visit, the parts cost, the waiting. One delayed repair visit in peak summer can mean three or four days without a working AC. Add the parts cost on top, and a problem that started small has already cost you more than an entire year of maintenance would have. That's what pushed us to put together something different.
We're launching HandySquad's Annual AC Maintenance Plans — so you're never caught off guard again.
The Real Cost of "Wait and Fix" AC Care
Most of us don't think about the AC until it stops working. Totally understandable — if it's blowing cold, why touch it? But that's usually when problems are quietly building up.
A slow gas leak quietly pushes your electricity bill higher. Dusty coils make the compressor strain more than it should. A small PCB issue that could've been caught early ends up becoming a full replacement. By the time you call someone, you're already looking at a bill that could've been avoided entirely — sometimes ₹8,000, sometimes ₹15,000 or more.
Getting your AC checked regularly isn't an added cost. It's what stops the bigger one from showing up.
What Is an AMC, and Why Does It Make Sense?
An AMC is basically a year-long service agreement for your AC. Instead of scrambling every time something breaks, you've got scheduled visits, someone to call when things go wrong, and — depending on the plan — coverage for key parts too.
We like to think of it as giving your AC the same kind of regular attention you'd give anything else you rely on daily.

Ideal for: Anyone who wants zero surprises and can't afford their AC being down for days.
How Plan Activation Works
Every AMC with us starts with a basic inspection of your unit — not to complicate things, but because we've seen too many cases where an AC had an existing issue nobody knew about. We'd rather catch it upfront than have it show up two months into your plan and leave everyone confused about what happened. You know exactly what you're signing up for, and we know exactly what we're working with.
We'd rather start honest than find out something was already wrong three months in.

Why HandySquad?
We've been working in homes across Trivandrum long enough to know what bad AC maintenance actually looks like — and what it ends up costing people. Every visit follows a set checklist. Whatever the technician finds, they tell you — and if nothing extra is needed, nothing extra gets recommended. Simple as that. No upselling. No vague explanations. Just the work, done right.

Limited Slots — Here's Why That Matters
We only onboard a set number of AMC customers each day. That's not a marketing line — it's how we make sure every customer actually gets the response time and service quality they paid for.
If you've been sitting on this decision, peak summer season is genuinely the worst time to figure it out last minute. Slots fill up, and we'd hate for you to miss out.
Book early. It takes less than a few minutes to get started.
What's Covered, What's Not
We think being upfront about this matters, so here it is clearly:
Covered under the Complete Care Plan (Comprehensive AMC): Compressor, PCB, Fan Motor, Magnetic Switch, Transformer, Condenser Coils, Evaporator Coils — subject to technical evaluation and parts availability.
Not covered under any plan: Plastic and body components, air filters, sheet metal parts, stabilizers, circuit breakers, remote controls, thermocol, and insulation parts. For older AC models, parts availability may vary and repair timelines can depend on what's available in the market.
Full terms apply. AMC plans are non-refundable once activated and cannot be transferred to a new owner.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is AMC in AC?
AMC stands for Annual Maintenance Contract. You pay a fixed amount once a year, and in return your AC gets looked after through regular visits — and if something goes wrong in between, you've got someone to call. Depending on the plan, spare parts can be covered too. Rather than waiting for a breakdown to call a technician, the AC AMC keeps things running before problems show up.
What are the AC AMC charges at HandySquad?
We have three plans running at launch prices right now. Basic Care is at ₹2,999 + GST, Smart Care at ₹3,999 + GST, and Complete Care at ₹5,999 + GST — all per year. The original prices are higher, so these are worth locking in early. In the non-comprehensive plans, spare parts are billed separately if needed.
What does an AC AMC contract include?
Every HandySquad AC AMC contract includes a minimum of 3 scheduled service visits over 12 months, a waiver on visiting charges for covered services, and breakdown support as per your chosen plan. The Complete Care Plan additionally covers major internal components like the compressor, PCB, fan motor, and coils. A home health checkup is included across all three plans at no extra charge.
Is AC AMC service available in Trivandrum?
Yes, we operate across Trivandrum. Book your AC service in Trivandrum through our website and we'll take it from there. Our technicians are based locally, they show up within 24–48 hours, and the plan only kicks in after we've done a quick inspection at your place.
What is the difference between comprehensive and non-comprehensive AC AMC?
The main difference comes down to parts. With a non-comprehensive plan, maintenance and breakdown visits are covered, but if something needs replacing, that cost is on you. With a comprehensive plan like our Complete Care, major components — compressor, PCB, fan motor, and a few others — are covered if they fail during the plan period, so there's no surprise bill waiting for you.
Can I get AC repair in Trivandrum without an AMC?
Absolutely. HandySquad handles standalone AC repair in Trivandrum as well. That said, once you've had to call twice in a year, the AMC almost always works out cheaper. Beats calling up every time something stops working and waiting around for a slot.
What happens if my AC has an existing issue before the AMC starts?
All HandySquad AMC plans are activated after a basic technical inspection of your unit. If the inspection turns up something, we tell you straight away — before anything is signed or activated. That way you're not walking into a contract thinking something is covered when it was already a problem going in.
