Air conditioning servicing in Bursledon, done properly
Servicing covers both halves of the system: the indoor units in the rooms and the outdoor unit outside. Filters and coils are cleaned, the drain is cleared, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are all checked. We carry out air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Bursledon and the rest of Hampshire, for most leading brands. If the problem is weaker cooling than last year and smells coming from the indoor unit, we can sort it out.
A yearly service suits most systems around Bursledon, and some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Bursledon questions
Does my air con in Bursledon need a yearly service?
A yearly visit is right for most households. 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 Bursledon?
Yes. Bursledon is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Are you F-Gas certified?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before you book anyone and we will gladly show you ours.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
The requirement starts at 5 tCO2e. Plenty of small splits sit under it, as 3 kg of R32 works out at about 2.0 tCO2e. We read the charge from the label and work it out for you.
Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?
We do. With a contract, the frequency and the scope of each visit are written down, at a fixed price agreed with your quote. It suits anyone who would rather not track service dates.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
How it works
You do not need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. We load the van from the survey notes so the work in Bursledon can be done in one go where possible.
- You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- Each indoor unit has its covers lifted so the filters, coil and tray can be cleaned.
- Outside, the coil is cleaned, the fan checked and the area cleared.
- Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
- Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.
Getting ready for the visit
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
How to get a quote

Aftercare tips
How well a system lasts depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep to an annual service, or more often if needed
- Keep the drain outlet clear
- Report drips, smells or noises early
Where the system needs F-gas leak checks, the result is recorded, and the next check is due within the period the rules set. We can book it in ahead of time.
Book a service at least once a year with extra visits where the system runs constantly or needs more frequent leak checks.
