Air conditioning servicing in Bethersden, done properly
Some systems need F-gas leak checks by law, and some don’t. Under the GOV.UK rules, 5 to under 50 tCO2e means a leak check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e means every 6 months. We work out where your system sits and check it accordingly. Common call-outs are for F-gas leak checks falling due and error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit, on multi-split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems.
Around Bethersden, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly clean keeps the system working well.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Bethersden: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Bethersden?
Yes. Bethersden is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
How often should air conditioning in Bethersden be serviced?
For most homes, once a year. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Can I have a maintenance contract for my air conditioning?
Yes, with visits planned to suit how hard the system works. We agree the cost up front, and each visit is recorded.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Every visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
When will I hear back?
You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
How long does an air conditioning service take?
A service takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. If we find something that needs repairing, we explain it and price it before doing anything else, so ring us on 07833 053749 or email us to arrange a time.

- The pipe route between the units

Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Send what you can of the following:
- The address and the type of property
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, call 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
What we are called out for in Bethersden
How often a system needs servicing depends partly on how hard it works. Heat pumps used for winter heating and units in busy offices, shops or kitchens get through a lot of air and so builds up dirt more quickly.
It’s time to call us if you’re dealing with:
- A system that struggles to cool on warm days
- Systems that haven’t been serviced for a while
- Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
Site managers at schools like Bethersden Primary School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday.
