Air conditioning servicing near Churchgate

Common problems we fix in Churchgate

Vibration and temperature changes can loosen electrical connections over time. That can lead to intermittent faults which is why they’re checked on every service.

Common reasons people call us are:

  • Ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit
  • Drips or damp patches below an indoor unit
  • No service record for the last year or more

If you look after a school such as Dewhurst St Mary CofE Primary School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

How to choose an air conditioning engineer

How we handle air conditioning servicing in Churchgate

Whether a leak check is required depends on how much refrigerant the system holds and which refrigerant it is. 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. If the problem is systems that haven’t been serviced for a while and ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit, we can sort it out.

Outdoor units around Churchgate tend to be close to gardens and hedges, which can clog the outdoor coil. Cleaning it is part of every service.

AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Churchgate: your questions answered

Is Churchgate in your area for air conditioning servicing?

Yes, Churchgate is within the area we cover. To start, call 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few photos.

Will you come out to Churchgate?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

When will I hear back?

On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.

Can you set up regular servicing?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.

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. With leak detection fitted, the interval can be doubled, and we can tell you where your system sits.

Air conditioning servicing around Churchgate

About 39% of households live in terraced houses, according to the 2021 Census. With a terrace, access to the rear for the outdoor unit is the main thing to tell us. Churchgate’s centre falls inside the Churchgate Conservation Area. On the National Heritage List, around 38 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Churchgate; Church of St Mary (grade I) is one. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.

Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more.

How it works

Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. The visit takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Around Churchgate, access is typically 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. Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are 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.

Before we arrive

  • Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
  • Let us know where we can park and unload

What air conditioning servicing can’t fix

Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Parts that have failed and need replacing
  • Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
  • Lost refrigerant, where the fix is a leak repair

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 07833 053749 or send an email and we will tell you honestly.

Where we work

  • VRF systems
  • Ducted systems
  • Wall-mounted split systems
  • Air-to-air heat pumps
  • Multi-split systems
  • Ceiling cassettes

After we have gone

Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:

  • Clear leaves and debris from around the outdoor unit
  • Call about new noises or smells rather than waiting
  • Close windows when the air conditioning is running

If we find a fault, we explain it and give you a price to put it right. We don’t carry out extra work until you’ve agreed it, so you stay in control of the cost.

An annual service is the simplest routine to keep to, and more often if the system works hard or the rules require it.

From one of our customers

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
