So the unit I'm living in has an AC that's pretty old, about 15 years. I called a few companies about cleaning but they all said because it's past 10 years, there's no longer parts to fix it, and so they won't be able to cover the cost if the unit breaks after cleaning.
I called the landlord and they said they can send someone to clean the AC but it would cost 20,000 yen. Almost double the cost of the going market price for a normal AC. And they said this is the only way I can get it cleaned if I want that assurance that it won't break afterwards, otherwise they'd charge me for the broken AC. Is there any alternative solution or do I just have to eat the cost?
