Moving an aircon unit

[robJ71]

I need to move a wall mounted aircon unit from one room to another is this a job for a competent diy'er or is there more too it?

To expand further it's a two part system with the compressor box mounted outside and the evaporator unit inside with a couple of pipes running between the two. I'm more than confident with the electrics side of it (it just plugs in to a standard 13a socket) but as for the pipe work is it specialist job to re-route? Am I dealing with pressure or gasses that I can't even start to understand. If it's just a straightforwArd plumbing job then I'm happy to try... But if not I'll get a pro in.

Any comments?

Deffo not a DaftyDIYer job mate. The line-set can only be altered by someone with an F-Gas qualification.

As I thought. I'll leave it to a pro. Thx
