How we handle air conditioning servicing in Clapham
For homes with one or two units and businesses with many, we can set up a maintenance contract. We agree the visits, what each one covers and the price with your quote, so the system is looked after on a regular schedule. Common call-outs are for frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes and condensate leaking into the room, on wall-mounted split systems, multi-split systems and VRF systems.
In a village like Clapham, outdoor units often face hedges, fields or gardens, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly clean keeps the system working well.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

Clapham: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Clapham?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
How often should air conditioning in Clapham be serviced?
A yearly visit is right for most households. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before booking and we will gladly show you ours.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Do you top up refrigerant during a service?
The service checks how the refrigerant circuit is performing, but doesn’t include adding gas. If it’s low, a leak repair comes first and the regas follows with a fixed price for each step.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
How the job changes from property to property
Filters
Certain indoor units carry additional filters alongside the main ones. They’re checked too, and we explain what the manufacturer suggests.
Maintenance contracts
With a contract, the number of visits, the scope and the cost are agreed in writing before the first visit. It works for one unit at home or many across a site.

How it works
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before we start, so you can plan around it. For businesses, we can usually work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Seeing the property in pictures first means the trip to Clapham can be planned properly.
- 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.
- Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and cleared.
- The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
How to prepare
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

Aftercare tips
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. Our tips:
- Keep the service records with the warranty paperwork
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Diary the next service before this one is forgotten
The best time to book the next service is now, while you remember. Spring suits systems used mainly for cooling, and autumn suits those used for heating although we service all year round.
Cleaning the filters between services helps a great deal. Most indoor units have filters you can slide out and rinse and the user manual explains how often.
Rented and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
What a customer said
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
