What we do, step by step
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we have done. Visits to Abbotswood are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
- Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
- Then the cleaning: filters, coils, fan and the drain line.
- The electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with a leak check where required.
- A final test run follows, then you get the service record.
Before we arrive
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property

Advice
Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Abbotswood
We are asked to service systems for many different reasons: a musty smell, weak cooling, water dripping indoors or simply because it’s been a while. The same full set of checks applies whatever prompted the call. If the problem is no service record for the last year or more and a system that struggles to cool on warm days, we can help.
In a village like Abbotswood, outdoor units often face hedges, fields or gardens, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly service clears them.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

What we’re called out for in Abbotswood
A slow leak can go unnoticed for a long time. The system just cools or heats a little less well each year and only becomes obvious when the weather is at its extreme.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- F-gas leak checks falling due
- Warning lights on the indoor unit
If you look after a school such as Cupernham Infant School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

Common questions in Abbotswood
How often should air conditioning in Abbotswood be serviced?
Once a year suits most home systems. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Is Abbotswood within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Will you make a mess?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
Is an F-gas leak check a legal requirement for my system?
Only if the system is at or above the threshold of 5 tCO2e. Many small split systems fall below it: 3 kg of R32, for example, is about 2.0 tCO2e. We check the label and tell you whether your system needs checks and how often.
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
