Advice
Air conditioning servicing in Bow Common
A manufacturer’s warranty can come with conditions, and regular servicing may be one of them. The terms differ from brand to brand, so it’s worth reading yours and we are happy to go through them with you. Our service record shows the work was done. If you’re dealing with water dripping from the indoor unit and warning lights on the indoor unit, we can help.
For a flat or office in Bow Common, 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 set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Common questions in Bow Common
Can I get a fixed-price quote for air conditioning servicing in Bow Common?
The easiest way is to call 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few details and pictures. Straightforward work can be priced remotely. Bigger jobs get a survey and a written fixed price.
How often should air conditioning in Bow Common 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.
Is Bow Common in your area?
Yes. We work in Bow Common and the rest of Greater London, within the London and South East area we cover. To book, call 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?
Refrigerant is only added after the leak that caused the loss has been dealt with. Topping up without finding the leak means the gas escapes again and that’s money wasted.
What does an air con service involve?
A clean of the parts that collect dirt and a check of the parts that do the work. Filters, coils and drains are cleaned, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant circuit checked, and F-gas leak checks where they apply.
Air conditioning servicing around Bow Common
The Limehouse Cut Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Bow Common, within about a third of a mile. There are 22 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Bow Common. Church of St Anne, listed at grade I, is one of roughly 30 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Bow Common’s centre. Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we’ll flag it if a replacement is needed. VOA council tax data show about 48% of homes in and around Bow Common were built in 2000 or later, and Census 2021 figures found about 88% of households live in flats. Outdoor units serving flats can be awkward to reach, so let us know where yours is. City dust and debris build up on London outdoor units, which is why servicing matters.
For a school like St Paul's Way Trust School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

When to call us in Bow Common
The indoor coil is cold and wet when the system is cooling. That moisture traps dust, and a dirty coil and drain tray are a common source of musty smells.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- Iced-up coils or pipework
- Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check
- Error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit
If you run premises near Limehouse station, ask about servicing several units in one visit.
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed or an estimate
- Whether the quote shows VAT clearly
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
Keeping the system healthy
Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Close windows when the air conditioning is running
- Know your manufacturer’s servicing conditions
- Rinse the indoor unit filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
Put the next service in the diary right away. Spring suits systems used mainly for cooling, and autumn suits those used for heating although we service all year round.
Check that the condensate pipe outside can still drain. If the outlet is blocked, the water has to go somewhere, and that’s usually back towards the indoor unit.
