About our air conditioning servicing in Apsley
Servicing doesn’t mean topping up refrigerant. Refrigerant runs in a sealed circuit and shouldn’t need adding to. Where the checks suggest gas has been lost, the right step is to find the leak, and we’ll set out how. Typical jobs include frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes and drips or damp patches below an indoor unit, on wall-mounted split systems, air-to-air heat pumps and ceiling cassettes.
We book services in Apsley at a time that suits you, and most single systems take an hour or two.
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

What we do, step by step
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Getting to the outside of the property matters more than parking in a place like Apsley.
- When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and cleared.
- The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
- You get a service record, with anything that needs attention explained.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Tell us about parking and loading

For landlords and property managers
For anyone managing more than one building, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so the files stay tidy.
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork, and we will keep everyone informed.
How the job changes from property to property
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
To find tCO2e, multiply the kg of refrigerant by its GWP and divide 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 check the label on your system and tell you where it sits.
Indoor and outdoor coils
Outside, the coil gives off or picks up heat. It collects garden debris and dirt and we clean it and make sure the air can flow.
Questions from Apsley
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Apsley?
We do: Apsley falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
How often should air conditioning in Apsley be serviced?
For most homes, once a year. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
How quickly will you reply?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
How much time does an air con service need?
The visit takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Any repair found on the day is priced and agreed before it’s done, so call us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier to arrange a time.
Is an F-gas leak check a legal requirement for my system?
Under GOV.UK guidance, systems of 5 to under 50 tCO2e need a check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e every 6 months. With leak detection fitted, the interval can be doubled, and we can tell you where your system sits.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.
