Air conditioning servicing near Angel

Air conditioning servicing in Angel, done properly

People in Angel book a service for all sorts of reasons: a musty smell, weak cooling, water dripping indoors or simply because it’s been a while. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. Typical jobs include noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit and warning lights on the indoor unit, on VRF systems, wall-mounted split systems and ducted systems.

For a flat or office in Angel, tell us where the outdoor unit is and how we reach it, as that affects how long the service takes. Managed buildings may need the visit booked through the agent.

Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: 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.

What a service looks like in Angel

About 39% of homes in the Angel area were built before 1919, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the 2021 Census found about 88% of households live in flats. If you live in a flat, mention any roof hatch, balcony or managing agent we’ll need to get to the outdoor unit. London outdoor units collect city dust and grime, so the outdoor coil gets particular attention on a service. Central Angel is inside a conservation area. 9 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Angel. Wells House, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 342 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Angel’s centre. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.

Site managers at schools like St John Evangelist RC Primary School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday. If you run premises near London Kings Cross station, ask about servicing several units in one visit.

Different systems, different jobs

Refrigerant performance and leak checks

tCO2e is the refrigerant charge in kg multiplied by its global warming potential, divided by 1,000. So 3 kg of R32 is roughly 2.0 tCO2e, and the same amount of R410A is roughly 6.3 tCO2e. We read the charge from the unit’s label and work it out for you.

Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units

Wall-mounted units are the most common indoor unit in homes. They open up for the filters, coil and fan to be cleaned and the drain is cleared at the same visit.

Angel questions

What’s the best way to get a price for air conditioning servicing in Angel?

Send us pictures of the room or the system and a few details about the property. Simple jobs can be priced from pictures; otherwise we arrange a site survey and then give you a fixed-price quote.

Do you cover Angel for air conditioning servicing?

Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Angel is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.

Do you provide F-Gas records?

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

Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?

No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.

Does the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?

It depends on the brand. Some warranties may include conditions about regular servicing so it’s worth reading yours. We can explain the terms, and each visit is recorded.

Why does F-Gas certification matter?

Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and we hold it.

When is an F-gas leak check required?

The rules are based on tCO2e, which comes from the refrigerant charge and its GWP. From 5 to under 50 tCO2e, leak checks are required at least every 12 months, and from 50 to under 500 tCO2e every 6 months. Hermetically sealed systems holding less than 10 tCO2e do not need them.

Leave it or put it right?

A service can find a worn part or a loose connection while the system is still running. Waiting until the unit stops means dealing with it on the hottest day of the year. In a London building, getting the freeholder’s or agent’s agreement can take a while, so it’s worth starting early.

Several rooms, units or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every unit or room you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed price.

What happens on the day

Each visit runs to the same pattern: agree the plan on site, protect the area, carry out the job, check the system and talk you through it. On site, the work takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Parking bays, permits and roof or balcony access are the first things we ask about in Angel.

  1. We ask about the system: the make, the number of indoor units and any problems you’ve noticed.
  2. We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
  3. Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
  4. The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
  5. Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.

Before we arrive

  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Let us know where the consumer unit is

A customer’s words

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
