Air conditioning servicing in Allington, done properly

Servicing does not mean topping up refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that’s short of gas has a leak somewhere. If the performance checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it rather than just topping up. The work covers ceiling cassettes, ducted systems and VRF systems, and the jobs we see most are ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit and smells coming from the indoor unit.

Outdoor units around Allington tend to be close to gardens and hedges, which can clog the outdoor coil. Every service includes cleaning it.

Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

Common questions in Allington

How often should air conditioning in Allington be serviced?

Once a year suits most home systems. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.

Do you cover smaller places like Allington?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.

When will I hear back?

You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.

Do you provide F-Gas records?

Yes. You get a written record of each visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.

Do you top up refrigerant during a 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 and that is money wasted.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.

Looking after your system

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:

  • File each service record with the manufacturer’s documents
  • Read the warranty conditions for your brand
  • Check the condensate pipe outside isn’t blocked or crushed

Run the system for a while after the visit and check it feels right. If anything seems off, ring 07833 053749 or email us and we will look into it.

Make sure condensate pipes outside aren’t crushed, blocked or buried. A pipe that’s been knocked or covered can back up into the indoor unit.

What air conditioning servicing cannot fix

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what air conditioning servicing won’t do:

  • Installation faults that need reworking
  • Heat gains the system was never sized for
  • A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up

Not sure which it is? You can ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we do, step by step

Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Photos of the room and the outside wall help us plan a job near Allington.

  1. We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
  2. The indoor units are opened up and the filters, coils and drain trays cleaned.
  3. The outdoor unit gets its own clean, with leaves and debris cleared away.
  4. Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are tested.
  5. Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.

How to prepare

  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
  • Clear access to the fuse board
  • Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
