About our air conditioning servicing in Aldingbourne
Air conditioning pulls room air through a filter and across a cold coil many times an hour. Dust, fluff and anything else in the air ends up on those parts. Servicing removes it, so the system can move air properly and the drain can do its job. Typical jobs include iced-up coils or pipework and drips or damp patches below an indoor unit, across ducted systems, wall-mounted split systems and VRF systems.
Most systems around Aldingbourne need servicing once a year, best done before summer.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Common questions in Aldingbourne
How often should air conditioning in Aldingbourne be serviced?
For most homes, once a year. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Will you come out to Aldingbourne?
Yes. Aldingbourne is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?
A regas is a separate job, done once a leak has been found and fixed. Adding gas without a repair just lets it leak away again, so we do not recommend it.
What does an air con service involve?
A full clean and check of the system. Filters, coils and drains are cleaned, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant circuit checked with leak checks where the rules require them.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
How soon will you get back to me?
On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Looking after your system
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Shut doors to the room so the system is not cooling the whole house
- Keep the filters clean between visits
- Book the service at least once a year
When we finish, we leave a record of the visit, with the checks carried out and anything we’d recommend. Keep it with the manufacturer’s paperwork so the service history is in one place.
Cleaning the filters between services helps a great deal. On many wall-mounted units, the filters lift out easily, and the manual shows how.
Let and managed properties
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Every visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed-price quote.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Aldingbourne.
- A date is fixed and the service price confirmed in advance.
- Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
- Then the cleaning: filters, coils, fan and the drain line.
- We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
- A final test run follows, then you get the service record.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Tell us about parking and loading
How to get a quote
Quotes do not take long. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.

What owners can safely do
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
