About our air conditioning servicing in Aldermaston
A service is as much a check-up as a clean. The engineer checks fans, pipe insulation, controls and electrical connections, and tells you about anything that looks like it’s heading for trouble. If the problem is a system that struggles to cool on warm days and no service record for the last year or more, we can help.
We plan the trip to Aldermaston and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
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.

Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Aldermaston
The outdoor unit lives outside. Leaves, dirt and debris collect on the coil and around the casing, which makes it harder for the unit to shed or pick up heat.
Look out for these signs:
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
- Systems that haven’t been serviced for a while
Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved

Servicing in Aldermaston: local notes
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 47% of homes in Aldermaston and the neighbourhoods around it to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and the last census (2021) found about 67% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit. Aldermaston’s centre falls inside the Aldermaston Conservation Area. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 42 within half a mile of the centre, such as Church of St Mary (grade I). For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building.
If you look after a school such as Aldermaston C.E. Primary School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

The process
Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. It takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant, and we tidy up before we leave. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to Aldermaston.
- First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
- We switch the system on and check it in operation.
- Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
- Electrical and refrigerant checks follow, including a leak check if the rules require one.
- A final test run follows, then you get the service record.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

Questions from Aldermaston
Do you cover Aldermaston for air conditioning servicing?
Yes, Aldermaston is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Is Aldermaston within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
Will servicing keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?
Warranty terms are set by the manufacturer, not by us. Check your brand’s conditions, which may mention servicing and file every service record.
Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?
Refrigerant is only added after the leak that caused the loss has been dealt with. Adding gas without a repair just lets it leak away again, so we do not recommend it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
What does an annual air con service cost?
Our annual service costs £95–£150 + VAT. More complex systems are priced on their details, so the cost is fixed before work begins.
Why deal with it now?
Drainage problems tend to grow. What starts as a damp patch under the indoor unit can become water running down the wall, so it’s worth clearing before that happens. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will explain each part.
Why book with us
- 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns
- Manufacturer’s warranty terms explained on your quote
- MCS certification for heat pump work
- A fixed price before any work starts

Looking after your system
Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Check the condensate pipe outside is not blocked or crushed
- Hold on to every service report
For systems that need them, the leak check and its result go on record and the next one falls due within 6 or 12 months, depending on the system. We can book it in ahead of time.
An annual service is the simplest routine to keep to with extra visits where the system runs constantly or needs more frequent leak checks.
A customer’s words
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
