About our air conditioning servicing in Brown Candover
We’re asked to service systems for many different reasons: a musty smell, weak cooling, water dripping indoors or simply because it’s been a while. The same full set of checks applies whatever prompted the call. The work covers ducted systems, multi-split systems and wall-mounted split systems, and the jobs we see most are no service record for the last year or more and condensate leaking into the room.
Most systems around Brown Candover need servicing once a year, best done before summer.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

What the work involves, system by system
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
tCO2e is the refrigerant charge in kg multiplied by its global warming potential, divided by 1,000. So 3 kg of R32 is roughly 2.0 tCO2e, and the same amount of R410A is roughly 6.3 tCO2e. We read the charge from the unit’s label and work it out for you.
Indoor and outdoor coils
The outdoor coil does the same job on the other side of the system. Leaves, dirt and debris clog the fins, so we clean it and clear the area around the unit.

What air conditioning servicing cannot fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:

Servicing in Brown Candover: local notes
Central Brown Candover is inside the Brown and Chilton Candover Conservation Area. On the National Heritage List, around 13 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Brown Candover; Church of St Peter (grade II*) is one. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building. About 69% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned.
Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more. A musty smell from the indoor unit is often a sign it needs a service.

How the visit works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. For a village like Brown Candover, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- 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.
- Outside, the coil is cleaned, the fan checked and the area cleared.
- We test the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing.
- If a repair is needed, you hear why and what it costs before anything is done.

Advice
FAQs for Brown Candover
How often do you service systems in Brown Candover?
For most homes, once a year. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
Do you cover Brown Candover for air conditioning servicing?
Yes. Brown Candover is one of the places we cover. Just phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few details.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
Under GOV.UK guidance, systems of 5 to under 50 tCO2e need a check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e every 6 months. Fitting leak detection lets you double the interval and we’ll confirm which band applies.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
What’s included in an air conditioning service?
We clean the filters and coils, clear the condensate drain and check the fans. We also check the electrical connections, the controls and the refrigerant performance plus a leak check on systems that need one.

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
