About our air conditioning servicing in Chorleywood
Servicing does not mean topping up refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that is short of gas has a leak somewhere. Where the checks suggest gas has been lost, the right step is to find the leak, and we will set out how. We are often asked to deal with systems that haven’t been serviced for a while and condensate leaking into the room, across ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and wall-mounted split systems.
A yearly service suits most systems around Chorleywood, and regular servicing can be a condition of some manufacturers’ warranties.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

When something else is needed
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

- A system that is too small for the room it serves

Common questions in Chorleywood
How often do you service systems in Chorleywood?
Normally once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Chorleywood?
We do: Chorleywood falls inside our working area. Just phone us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few details.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Does my air conditioning need an F-gas leak check?
The GOV.UK rules set leak checks at least every 12 months for 5 to under 50 tCO2e and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e. Fitting leak detection lets you double the interval and we’ll confirm which band applies.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re 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.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
How much time does an air con service need?
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’ll give you an idea when we book.
The process
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. A few photos let us plan a visit to a place like Chorleywood.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that’s been bothering you.
- On arrival, a quick performance check shows how well it’s working before the clean.
- We clean the filters and coils and make sure the condensate drains away.
- The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
- We leave you a record of the service and explain anything we found.
How to prepare
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time

When to call us in Chorleywood
When the system cools, water condenses on the indoor coil. Dust sticks to a wet surface, and over time the coil and drain tray can get dirty enough to smell.
Look out for these signs:
- A system that struggles to cool on warm days
- Leak check records that need bringing up to date
- Noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit
Site managers at schools like Christ Church Chorleywood CofE School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
