Air conditioning servicing near Calcott

How the job changes from property to property

Indoor and outdoor coils

Coil fins are thin and easily flattened. We note any damage and tell you if it’s affecting performance.

Fans and electrics

The indoor and outdoor fans move the air across the coils. The engineer listens for noise and checks for wobble or wear and cleans dust from the indoor fan.

Air conditioning servicing in Calcott

We are 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. Typical jobs include a system that struggles to cool on warm days and ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit, on ceiling cassettes, VRF systems and multi-split systems.

For a home in or near Calcott, a service once a year suits most systems, ideally in spring before the warm weather.

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.

The process

The work area is kept tidy throughout, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Calcott.

  1. First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
  2. We switch the system on and check it in operation.
  3. Then the cleaning: filters, coils, fan and the drain line.
  4. The electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with a leak check where required.
  5. A final test run follows, then you get the service record.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know where we can park and unload
  • Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different answer:

  • Lost refrigerant, where the fix is a leak repair
  • A unit that was undersized when it was chosen
  • Poor original installation, such as drains without a proper fall

Calcott: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Calcott?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

Do you cover Calcott for air conditioning servicing?

We do: Calcott falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.

Do you work on all makes?

The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.

How much time does an air con service need?

As a guide, it takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Units that are hard to reach can take longer and we will let you know before the visit.

How regularly should I have my air conditioning serviced?

Most systems are best serviced yearly. Some also need F-gas leak checks every 12 or 6 months, depending on their size and refrigerant, and we will tell you if yours does.

Does the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?

Each manufacturer sets its own terms. Some warranties may include conditions about regular servicing, so check the terms for your system. We’re happy to go through them with you, and our service record shows the work was done.

What do you check on an air conditioning service?

Both the indoor and outdoor units are checked and cleaned: the filters, coils, drain and fans, followed by the wiring, controls and refrigerant performance. A service record follows.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system and we’re happy to deal with whoever it is.

Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.

From one of our customers

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
