What happens on the day

If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before work begins, so you can plan around it. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Blackboys.

  1. When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
  2. The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
  3. Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and cleared.
  4. Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
  5. You get a service record, with anything that needs attention explained.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

Advice

FAQs for Blackboys

Does my air con in Blackboys need a yearly service?

A yearly visit is right for most households. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.

Is Blackboys within the area you cover?

Yes. Blackboys is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Do I get paperwork after the visit?

Yes. You get a written record of each visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.

Do you do service contracts for air con?

Yes, for homes and businesses. We fix the schedule, the scope and the cost with your quote and the servicing happens on time.

Will servicing keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?

Each manufacturer sets its own terms. Some warranties may include conditions about regular servicing, so check the terms for your system. We can explain the terms, and each visit is recorded.

How long does an air conditioning service take?

Expect it to take an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. The number of indoor units and how easy they are to reach make the biggest difference so we’ll confirm the time when we book.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that can’t wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.

Why it’s worth doing now in Blackboys

Some manufacturers may set conditions on their warranties, and servicing may be among them. If yours does, a gap in the service history could matter if a fault comes up later. We’ll explain what your brand’s terms say. For a village like Blackboys, booking ahead lets us plan the trip properly.

What you pay depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, the access and the parts and time the job needs. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What we’re called out for in Blackboys

Filters clog gradually, a little more every day the system runs. As they fill, less air gets through, the coil can get too cold and the room takes longer to cool or warm.

Customers usually contact us after spotting something like this:

  • A unit showing a fault code
  • Weaker cooling than last year
  • Leak check records that need bringing up to date

If you can’t remember the last service, it’s probably due.

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
  • What paperwork you’ll receive afterwards
  • Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why

Choosing an air con installer

What the work involves, system by system

Indoor and outdoor coils

Bent or damaged fins restrict the airflow across a coil. We note any damage and tell you if it’s affecting performance.

Fans and electrics

We look at the wiring and terminals for anything loose or discoloured. A loose terminal can be the cause of an intermittent fault, so this matters.

What a customer said

“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.”
