Air Conditioner Installation & Repair in Gonio
About 15 km from Batumi
Yes — Gonio is about 15 km south of Batumi, roughly 20 minutes, and Imia works there regularly, along with neighbouring Kvariati and Sarpi up to the Turkish border. Installation starts from 140 GEL, on-site diagnostics from 60 GEL, deep cleaning 130–150 GEL, all at Batumi prices with a 12-month workmanship warranty.
Guesthouse country — and what that changes
Gonio is mostly low-rise family guesthouses rather than apartment towers, and that changes the work in two practical ways. First, the buildings are small and privately owned, so there is no building management to negotiate with and the outdoor unit can usually go somewhere sensible — a wall, a flat roof, a yard stand — which keeps installations straightforward and the pipe runs short. Second, the rooms turn over constantly through the summer.
That turnover is the real constraint here. A unit in a Gonio guesthouse room may be used by a different family every three days, at full output, all season. Filters clog faster, the drain pan never gets a chance to dry out, and a fault has to be fixed today rather than next week because the room is booked. Practically, that means two things are worth planning: a pre-season deep clean on every room unit, and knowing who to call before the room is occupied and something drips on a guest.
Gonio, Kvariati and Sarpi — the whole southern strip
This page covers the strip from Gonio down past Kvariati to Sarpi at the border. Kvariati sits tight between the road and the sea with a lot of newer small hotels; Sarpi is smaller again and further out. All three are inside a 25-minute drive from Batumi and are priced identically to a Batumi job — no travel surcharge for any of them.
The one thing worth flagging on this strip is exposure. Buildings here sit close to open sea, and salt spray reaching an outdoor unit corrodes the condenser coil and the fan much faster than in the city. If you are buying a unit for a property in Gonio, Kvariati or Sarpi, pay for a corrosion-resistant (blue-fin or equivalent) outdoor coil, and plan on washing the outdoor unit annually. It is the single cheapest thing you can do to add years to a coastal AC.
What a Gonio visit costs
Standard wall installation is 140 GEL for 7,000 BTU, 160 GEL for 9,000, 200 GEL for 12,000, 220 GEL for 18,000 and 250 GEL for 24,000. Swapping an old unit for a new one is 80 GEL (20–40 m² room) or 100 GEL (60–80 m²). A deep clean is 130 or 150 GEL by room size. On-site diagnostics is from 60 GEL, a water-leak check from 50 GEL, and refrigerant is 15 GEL per 100 grams. Guesthouses with a cassette or ducted system: commercial cleaning from 250 GEL, commercial installation from 350 GEL.
For a repair, have the model number from the indoor unit and a description of the symptom ready — it lets us bring the likely part rather than making two trips, which matters more in Gonio than in the city because the drive is longer. Multiple rooms in one visit are quoted together.

Questions about Gonio
Do you cover Kvariati and Sarpi as well as Gonio?
Yes — the whole southern strip from Gonio through Kvariati to Sarpi at the border, all at Batumi prices with no travel surcharge. It is within about a 25-minute drive. Tell us the address and the job; installation from 140 GEL, diagnostics from 60 GEL, deep cleaning 130–150 GEL.
How quickly can you get to a guesthouse with a guest arriving?
Say so when you call and we will fit you into the earliest slot available — mid-season that is usually the same week, sometimes sooner for a fault that makes a room unusable. Having the model number and the symptom ready genuinely helps, because it means the right part comes on the first visit rather than the second.
