Refrigerant performance and leak checks
tCO2e is the refrigerant charge in kg multiplied by its global warming potential, divided by 1,000. As an example, 3 kg of R32 comes to about 2.0 tCO2e, while 3 kg of R410A is about 6.3 tCO2e. We read the charge from the unit’s label and work it out for you.
How we handle air conditioning servicing in Biggin Hill
Servicing is also a chance to spot faults early. We listen to the fans, look at the pipework and insulation, test the controls and check the electrical connections are sound, and tells you about anything that looks like it’s heading for trouble. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, air-to-air heat pumps and VRF systems, and common reasons people get in touch are new noises from the indoor or outdoor unit and no service record for the last year or more.
For a flat or office in Biggin Hill, tell us where the outdoor unit is and how we reach it, as that affects how long the service takes. If the building has a managing agent, we can book in with them.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

What happens on the day
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. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. The more we can see beforehand, the smoother the visit to Biggin Hill will be.
- We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
- Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
- The outdoor unit gets its own clean, with leaves and debris cleared away.
- We test the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing.
- We explain what we found and price any repair before it’s done.
How to prepare
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Biggin Hill: your questions answered
Does my air con in Biggin Hill need a yearly service?
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.
Do you cover Biggin Hill for air conditioning servicing?
Yes, Biggin Hill is within the area we cover. Just call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk with a few details.
What accreditations do you have?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Keeping systems in Biggin Hill running
St Mark's Church, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 4 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Biggin Hill’s centre. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 42% of homes across Biggin Hill and its surrounding area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and Census 2021 figures found about 67% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day. In London, a yearly clean of the outdoor coil makes a real difference to how well a system cools.
If you can’t remember the last service, it’s probably due. If you look after a school such as Oaklands Primary Academy, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

Fixed-price quotes for air conditioning servicing in Biggin Hill
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The pipe route between the units
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re unsure, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
