Air conditioning servicing for Bulverhythe

Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Bulverhythe

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. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. The work covers VRF systems, ducted systems and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about F-gas leak checks falling due and weaker cooling than last year.

Most systems around Bulverhythe need servicing once a year, best done before summer.

Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

The process

Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it does not catch you out. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Bulverhythe.

  1. You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
  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. Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
  5. We explain what we found and price any repair before it’s done.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
  • Mention any parking restrictions near the property
  • Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working

Take a look at how installs are priced and how to check a contractor.

Before you call an engineer

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.

Some faults have simple causes you can check first: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us on 07833 053749 or send an email.

Bulverhythe questions

Will you come out to Bulverhythe?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

Does my air con in Bulverhythe need a yearly service?

For most homes, once a year. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.

Why use an F-Gas certified company?

F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and we hold it.

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that cannot wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.

When is an F-gas leak check required?

The rules are based on tCO2e, which comes from the refrigerant charge and its GWP. 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 don’t need them.

Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?

Yes, for homes and businesses. The visits, what each covers and the price are agreed with your quote, so servicing and any required leak checks stay on schedule.

Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?

We check refrigerant performance on every service, but adding gas is separate work. If it’s low, a leak repair comes first and the regas follows, priced before we start.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:

  • Report drips, smells or noises early
  • Keep plants, bins and stored items away from the outdoor unit
  • Close windows when the air conditioning is running

Once we’ve gone, use the system as normal and see how it performs. If anything seems off, ring us on 07833 053749 and we will talk it through.

Cleaning the filters between services helps a great deal. On many wall-mounted units, the filters lift out easily and the user manual explains how often.
