Air conditioning servicing in Cliffe Woods, Medway
Air conditioning servicing in Cliffe Woods from an F-Gas certified company, with the manufacturer’s warranty terms explained on your quote. We reply to enquiries the same working day.
- An unpleasant odour when the system runs

- Error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit
How the visit works
Every visit follows the same order: agree the plan on site, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, check the system and explain it all to you. The visit itself takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to Cliffe Woods.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that’s been bothering you.
- 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.
- A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.
Preparing for the visit
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Advice
Air conditioning servicing in Cliffe Woods
Servicing doesn’t mean topping up refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that is short of gas has a leak somewhere. If the performance checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it rather than just topping up. We are often asked to deal with new noises from the indoor or outdoor unit and an unpleasant odour when the system runs, on ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and multi-split systems.
For a home in or near Cliffe Woods, a service once a year suits most systems, best done before summer.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what air conditioning servicing will not do:
- A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up
- Parts that have failed and need replacing
- Rooms that gain heat faster than any unit could cope with
If in doubt, call us on 07833 053749 and we will say what we think.

Common problems we fix in Cliffe Woods
Outdoor units sit in the weather all year. Leaves, dirt and debris collect on the coil and around the casing, which makes it harder for the unit to shed or pick up heat.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- Leak check records that need bringing up to date
- Systems that haven’t been serviced for a while
- Humming, rattling or squealing from the system
If you can’t remember the last service, it’s probably due.

Common questions in Cliffe Woods
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Cliffe Woods?
It can, as Cliffe Woods is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. A yearly service that rinses and checks the outdoor coil matters more near the sea.
Do you cover smaller places like Cliffe Woods?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Which brands do you work with?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Does my air conditioning need an F-gas leak check?
Under GOV.UK guidance, systems of 5 to under 50 tCO2e need a check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e every 6 months. With leak detection fitted, the interval can be doubled and we’ll confirm which band applies.
A customer’s words
“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.”
