Air conditioning servicing in Chartridge
Whether a leak check is required depends on how much refrigerant the system holds and which refrigerant it is. Under the GOV.UK rules, 5 to under 50 tCO2e means a leak check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e means every 6 months. We tell you which band your system falls into and carry out the checks it needs. If you are dealing with humming, rattling or squealing from the system and water dripping from the indoor unit, we can sort it out.
Several units at a home near Chartridge can be serviced in one visit.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Common questions in Chartridge
Do you cover smaller places like Chartridge?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is Chartridge in your area for air conditioning servicing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Chartridge is part of that. Just ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few details.
What does an annual air con service cost?
The price for an annual service is £95–£150 + VAT. You’ll know the price before the engineer arrives and bigger systems are priced once we know what’s installed.
How long does an air conditioning service take?
Expect it to take anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Access and the number of units decide most of the time, and we will give you an idea when we book.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Will servicing keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?
It depends on the brand. Some may have servicing conditions attached so it’s worth reading yours. We are happy to go through them with you, and our service record shows the work was done.
Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Chartridge
Electrical terminals can work loose as the system heats, cools and vibrates. That can lead to intermittent faults, so the engineer checks them as part of the service.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- Ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit
- Air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did
Booking before the first hot spell means the system is ready when you need it.

The process
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Chartridge so we arrive with what’s needed.
- When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
- The engineer switches the system on and checks how it behaves before taking anything apart.
- Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and cleared.
- Temperatures and pressures tell us how the refrigerant circuit is doing, alongside checks on the wiring and controls.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

How we price air conditioning servicing
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but every job is priced on its own. What we look at:
- The brand, model and parts involved
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Ask for a fixed-price quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Before you get in touch
Good pictures often save a visit. The most useful are:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
