Let and managed properties

We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to and we will copy in whoever needs it.

Air conditioning servicing in Chart Sutton

We are asked to service systems for many different reasons: smells at start-up, a unit that struggles on hot days, drips from the indoor unit, or a service that’s overdue. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, ducted systems and ceiling cassettes, and people most often call us about error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit and F-gas leak checks falling due.

Around Chart Sutton, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, where seeds and leaves collect on the coil. A yearly clean keeps the system working well.

Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

The process

Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system, and we clear up before we go. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Chart Sutton easier.

  1. When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
  2. The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
  3. We clean the filters and coils and make sure the condensate drains away.
  4. The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
  5. Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Do you need air conditioning servicing in Chart Sutton?

The outdoor unit lives outside. Leaves, grime and plant growth gather on the fins and around the unit, which makes it harder for the unit to shed or pick up heat.

Customers normally contact us when they notice something like this:

  • No service record for the last year or more
  • A unit showing a fault code
  • Iced-up coils or pipework

For a school like Langley Park Primary Academy, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
  • Whether the quote shows VAT clearly
  • Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved

Questions to ask before you book

Honest limits

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

  • Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
  • Cooling capacity that does not match the space
  • A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair

If you’re not sure, just call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

Chart Sutton: your questions answered

Is Chart Sutton within the area you cover?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Does my air con in Chart Sutton need a yearly service?

Usually once a year for homes, more often for busy business 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 a regas part of an air conditioning service?

A service does not include adding refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that’s short of gas has a leak. We check the refrigerant performance, and if we suspect a leak we explain how it can be found and repaired.

How long does an air conditioning service take?

Expect it to take a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. The number of indoor units and how easy they are to reach make the biggest difference, and we will give you an idea when we book.

Can I do the refrigerant work myself?

The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.

Do you provide F-Gas records?

Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

Yes, 24/7. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll advise on what to do next.

Keeping systems in Chart Sutton running

About 47% of homes across Chart Sutton and its surrounding area have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the 2021 Census found about 72% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day. About 10 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Chart Sutton, Old Amber Green Farmhouse (grade II) among them. If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit.

Booking before the first hot spell means the system is ready when you need it.

“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.”
