How we handle air conditioning servicing in Basingstoke
For an annual service, the price is £95–£150 + VAT, and we confirm the figure before we book you in. Multi-split, ducted and commercial systems are priced once we know what’s there. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. If the problem is frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes and air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did, we can help.
In a place the size of Basingstoke, we service home systems, offices, shops and restaurants. Each service covers filters, coils, the condensate drain, electrical checks and a test run.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.
Questions from Basingstoke
Is Basingstoke in your area for air conditioning servicing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Basingstoke is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
How often do you service systems in Basingstoke?
A yearly visit is right for most households. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. That is not optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Basingstoke and across Hampshire. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. For simple jobs, photos and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
Yes, with visits planned to suit how hard the system works. The price is fixed with your quote, and each visit is recorded.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Every visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
What air conditioning servicing cannot fix
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Cooling capacity that doesn’t match the space
- Poor original installation, such as drains without a proper fall
- Heat from large windows, roof spaces or equipment beyond the system’s capacity
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What else we do in Basingstoke
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are normally the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
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’ll keep everyone informed.
What a service looks like in Basingstoke
Basingstoke’s centre falls inside the Brookvale West Conservation Area. 4 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Basingstoke. About 3 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Basingstoke, Church of St Michael (grade I) among them. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that. The last census (2021) found about 35% of households in terraced houses. With a terrace, access to the rear for the outdoor unit is the main thing to tell us.
Site managers at schools like King's Furlong Infant School and Nursery can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday. If you run premises near Basingstoke station, ask about servicing several units in one visit.

A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
