How we handle air conditioning servicing in Bricket Wood
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, then explains anything that looks like it could cause a problem later. If the problem is no service record for the last year or more and a musty or damp smell when the unit starts, we can sort it out.
A yearly service suits most systems around Bricket Wood, and some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Bricket Wood
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: 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.
When it’s something else
In fairness, some problems need a different answer:
- A system that’s too small for the room it serves
- Installation faults that need reworking
- Heat gains the system was never sized for
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 07833 053749 and we will give you a straight answer.

Bricket Wood questions
How often do you service systems in Bricket Wood?
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.
Will you come out to Bricket Wood?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before work begins, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
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 under 10 tCO2e are exempt.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
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’ll talk you through the next steps.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.

- A date is fixed and the service price confirmed in advance.
- The engineer runs the system and checks how it’s performing.
- We clean the filters, coils and fans and clear the condensate drain.

- A final test run follows, then you get the service record.
Preparing for the visit

- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
