Air conditioning servicing across Medway: what to expect
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. A service clears it away, letting air pass through the unit properly and the condensate drain away. Typical jobs include a musty or damp smell when the unit starts and noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit, on multi-split systems, wall-mounted split systems and ducted systems.
You don’t need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we’ve done.
- We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
- Each indoor unit has its covers lifted so the filters, coil and tray can be cleaned.
- The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.
- Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
- We explain what we found and price any repair before it’s done.
What you’ll pay
A single unit or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. You will have a fixed price before we start, with VAT shown clearly.
What you get with us
- Clear warranty information from the manufacturer
- Leading brands including Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric and Fujitsu
- NICEIC approved electrical contractors
- 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns

Air conditioning servicing around Medway
Our air conditioning servicing work across Medway takes in places such as Gillingham, Chatham and Rochester and the smaller places around them. We cover every place we list for Medway, 68 in all.
Refrigerant work is done by F-gas qualified engineers for a certified company, and the electrics come under our NICEIC approval. Near the coast in Medway, outdoor units last longer with shelter from sea wind and a yearly service, and some manufacturers offer corrosion-protected coils.
Gillingham: For a school like Featherby Junior School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term. Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is and we’re happy to deal with whoever it is.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We are happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
What happens if it’s left?
Servicing is planned, priced and booked at a time that suits you. A breakdown arrives without warning and that makes a planned service the simpler way to look after the system.

What we are called out for in Medway
The outdoor unit lives outside. Leaves, grime and plant growth gather on the fins and around the unit, which makes it harder for the unit to shed or pick up heat.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- An unpleasant odour when the system runs
- No service record for the last year or more
- Air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did
- Warning lights on the indoor unit
Looking after your system
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Know your manufacturer’s servicing conditions
- File each service record with the manufacturer’s documents
- Report drips, smells or noises early
- Leave space around the outdoor unit for air to flow
Put the next service in the diary right away. Spring suits systems used mainly for cooling, and autumn suits those used for heating although we service all year round.
Keep the area around the outdoor unit clear. Plants, bins and stored items piled around it get in the way of the air it needs, so clear them back.
