Air conditioning servicing in Chase Cross

Some systems need F-gas leak checks by law, and some do not. GOV.UK sets the frequency by the system’s tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e): at least every 12 months from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e. We work out where your system sits and check it accordingly. Typical jobs include condensate leaking into the room and air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did, across air-to-air heat pumps, wall-mounted split systems and ducted systems.

A yearly service suits most systems around Chase Cross, and some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we are happy to talk you through them.

What affects the quote in Chase Cross

A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:

  • Access, including height, roofs and ladders
  • What state the existing equipment is in
  • The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed

Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

Asking for a quote

When you contact us, it’s useful to have:

  • Any previous service or F-Gas records
  • A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
  • The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go

Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it on the quote. For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.

How the visit works

Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Around Chase Cross, access is usually simple, though gates and garden access are worth mentioning.

  1. It begins with a few questions about the make, the rooms served and any symptoms.
  2. The indoor units are opened up and the filters, coils and drain trays cleaned.
  3. The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.
  4. We test the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing.
  5. We explain what we found and price any repair before it’s done.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
  • Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
  • Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need

Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Chase Cross

How often should air conditioning in Chase Cross be serviced?

A yearly visit is right for most households. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.

Do you cover smaller places like Chase Cross?

Yes. Chase Cross is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?

Yes, with visits planned to suit how hard the system works. The price is fixed with your quote, and each visit is recorded.

How do you keep the place clean during the work?

We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.

Can I do the refrigerant work myself?

Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.

Are you F-Gas certified?

We’re an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.

How long will the engineer be here for the service?

Expect it to take an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Access and the number of units decide most of the time so we’ll confirm the time when we book.

From one of our customers

“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.”
