Questions from Braughing
Is Braughing within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Does my air con in Braughing need a yearly service?
Once a year suits most home systems. 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 you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Does my air conditioning need an F-gas leak check?
It depends on the system’s tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e). From 5 to under 50 tCO2e, leak checks are required at least every 12 months, and from 50 to under 500 tCO2e every 6 months. Hermetically sealed systems holding less than 10 tCO2e do not need them.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
Yes, with visits planned to suit how hard the system works. We agree the cost up front and you get a record after each visit.
Do you work on all makes?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
About our air conditioning servicing in Braughing
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. Typical jobs include an unpleasant odour when the system runs and F-gas leak checks falling due, across air-to-air heat pumps, ceiling cassettes and VRF systems.
We plan the trip to Braughing and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

What owners can safely do
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
System by system
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
We check how the refrigerant circuit is performing, using temperatures and pressures to see whether it’s working as it should. If something points to a leak, we tell you and set out the options.
Filters
Some systems have extra filters for fine dust or odours. They’re checked too, and we explain what the manufacturer suggests.
Keeping systems in Braughing running
About 67% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book. The centre of Braughing lies within the Braughing Conservation Area. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 69 within half a mile of the centre, such as Ivy Cottage (grade II). We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.
Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more. Schools such as Jenyns First School and Nursery can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Seeing the property in pictures first means the trip to Braughing can be planned properly.
- You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- The indoor units are opened up and the filters, coils and drain trays cleaned.
- The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.
- Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
- If a repair is needed, you hear why and what it costs before anything is done.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them

Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
