Need air conditioning servicing in Buckingham?

How it works

The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Pictures of the space, the fuse board and the outside wall are a good start for a job in Buckingham.

  1. We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
  2. Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
  3. Outside, the coil is cleaned, the fan checked and the area cleared.
  4. Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are tested.
  5. We explain what we found and price any repair before it’s done.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
  • Clear access to the fuse board

About our air conditioning servicing in Buckingham

Maintenance contracts suit anyone who would rather not have to remember when the next service is due. The visits, the scope and the cost are fixed with your quote, so the system is looked after on a regular schedule. If you are dealing with a service that’s overdue and leak check records that need bringing up to date, we can sort it out.

Around Buckingham, we service home systems and business ones. Once a year suits most homes, more often for busy commercial systems.

Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Keeping systems in Buckingham running

About 33% of homes in the Buckingham area have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the last census (2021) found about 68% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs. Roughly a third of a mile or less from central Buckingham, you reach the Buckingham Conservation Area. 2 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Buckingham. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 186 within half a mile of the centre, such as Church of St Peter and St Paul (grade I). Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first.

For a school like George Grenville Academy, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

What air conditioning will not do

We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that will not help, so here are the limits:

  • A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
  • Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
  • A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up

If you’re not sure, just call 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What the work covers

  • Multi-split systems
  • VRF systems
  • Ducted systems
  • Ceiling cassettes
  • Wall-mounted split systems
  • Air-to-air heat pumps

What the work involves, system by system

Condensate drains and pumps

When the system cools, every indoor unit makes water. The tray is cleaned and the pipe flushed through so it flows properly.

Maintenance contracts

A maintenance contract sets out the visits, what each covers and the price before the first visit. It suits homes and businesses alike.

When to call us in Buckingham

A slow leak can go unnoticed for a long time. Performance drops slowly, until it can’t keep up on the hottest or coldest days.

Common reasons people call us include:

  • No service record for the last year or more
  • Weaker cooling than last year
  • Water dripping from the indoor unit

Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected
  • What the manufacturer’s warranty covers and for how long
  • Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why

When is an F-gas leak check required?

What does F-Gas certified mean?

Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before booking, and we are happy to show ours.

From one of our customers

“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
