How the visit works
The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system, and we clear up before we go. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Boughton Corner so we arrive with what’s needed.
- We start with the basics, such as the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
- We check the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing, and carry out a leak check where the rules call for it.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
How to prepare
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Advice
About our air conditioning servicing in Boughton Corner
Servicing covers both halves of the system: the indoor units in the rooms and the outdoor unit outside. We clean the filters and coils, clear the condensate drain, check the electrics and controls, and look at how the refrigerant circuit is performing. We service systems in Boughton Corner and across Kent, whatever the make. If you’re dealing with a system that struggles to cool on warm days and frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes, we can sort it out.
Around Boughton Corner, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, where seeds and leaves collect on the coil. A yearly clean keeps the system working well.

Let and managed properties
Bigger systems bring extra duties: 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.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is, and we can work for either side.

Common questions in Boughton Corner
Will you come out to Boughton Corner?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
How often should air conditioning in Boughton Corner be serviced?
A yearly visit is right for most households. 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 I need a service to keep the manufacturer’s warranty?
The warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms. Read the conditions for your brand, as they may include servicing, and keep each service record with the warranty paperwork.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
Is an F-gas leak check a legal requirement for my system?
The GOV.UK rules set leak checks at least every 12 months for 5 to under 50 tCO2e and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e. Fitting leak detection lets you double the interval, and we can tell you where your system sits.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, 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.
What owners can safely do
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
What air conditioning servicing cannot fix
Not every problem is solved by air conditioning servicing, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Poor original installation, such as drains without a proper fall
- Major component failures that call for a repair visit
- A unit that was undersized when it was chosen
