Air con servicing in Asheridge
Air conditioning servicing for Asheridge, from F-Gas certified engineers, with the manufacturer’s warranty terms explained on your quote. We reply to enquiries the same working day.
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
Common problems we fix in Asheridge
The indoor coil is cold and wet when the system is cooling. That moisture traps dust, and a dirty coil and drain tray are a common source of musty smells.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A system that struggles to cool on warm days
- Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check
- A service that is overdue
For a school like Chartridge Combined School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

Air conditioning servicing in Asheridge, done properly
A manufacturer’s warranty can come with conditions, and regular servicing may be one of them. The terms differ from brand to brand, so it’s worth reading yours, and we can explain what yours says. Our service record shows the work was done. If you are dealing with leak check records that need bringing up to date and drips or damp patches below an indoor unit, we can help.
Most systems around Asheridge need servicing once a year, ideally in spring before the warm weather.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

The process
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you don’t need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Work in Asheridge is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- We start with the basics, such as the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- The engineer switches the system on and checks how it behaves before taking anything apart.
- 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.
- A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.
How to prepare
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand

Advice
What the work involves, system by system
Filters
Certain indoor units carry additional filters alongside the main ones. We check these as well and explain what the manufacturer recommends.
Fans and electrics
Electrical connections are checked for tightness and signs of overheating. A loose terminal can be the cause of an intermittent fault, so this matters.
Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Asheridge
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Asheridge?
We do: Asheridge falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
How often do you service systems in Asheridge?
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.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. We always look before we price, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Do you work on all makes?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.

Owner checks or an engineer?
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 refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
From one of our customers
“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.”
