Why it’s worth doing now in Catmore
A service costs a set price and fits around your diary. A fault picks its own moment, so a planned visit is the easier option. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone 07833 053749 for straight advice and a fixed price.

About our air conditioning servicing in Catmore
Servicing is also a chance to spot faults early. The engineer checks fans, pipe insulation, controls and electrical connections, then explains anything that looks like it could cause a problem later. Common call-outs are for weaker cooling than last year and ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit, across air-to-air heat pumps, wall-mounted split systems and multi-split systems.
Most systems around Catmore need servicing once a year, ideally in spring before the warm weather.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Servicing in Catmore: local notes
Church of St Margaret, listed at grade I, is one of roughly 3 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Catmore’s centre. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. About 83% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit.
Water dripping from the indoor unit often traces back to a drain that needs clearing. If you can’t remember the last service, it’s probably due.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. The work itself takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Somewhere like Catmore, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.

- Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
- The outdoor unit gets its own clean, with leaves and debris cleared away.
- Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
- We explain what we found and price any repair before it’s done.

Questions from Catmore
Is Catmore in your area for air conditioning servicing?
We do: Catmore falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
How often should air conditioning in Catmore be serviced?
Once a year suits most home systems. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your photos and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before you book and we will gladly show you ours.
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.
