System by system
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
F-gas leak checks are required for systems from 5 tCO2e upwards, at least yearly up to 50 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e. Hermetically sealed systems under 10 tCO2e are exempt.
Maintenance contracts
With a contract, the number of visits, the scope and the cost are agreed in writing before the first visit. It suits homes and businesses alike.
Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Comp
For an annual service, the price is £95–£150 + VAT, confirmed before the visit is booked. Larger systems with several indoor units, ducted units or commercial plant are priced on their details. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. If you’re dealing with error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit and a musty or damp smell when the unit starts, we can help.
In a village like Comp, outdoor units often face hedges, fields or gardens, where seeds and leaves collect on the coil. A yearly clean keeps the system working well.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Servicing in Comp: local notes
Census 2021 figures found about 73% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned. Comp Corner Cottage, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 8 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Comp’s centre. Day-to-day work on an existing system isn’t affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be.
Site managers at schools like Platt Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday.
Comp is about 3 miles west of Kings Hill, in Kent. From the centre of Comp to the outskirts, we cover air conditioning servicing, from a single room to a whole building. Comp is one of 922 towns, villages and districts in Kent where we work. Bromley is in our area too, about 16 miles from Comp.
The closest recent job we can point to from Comp was on Station Road, Orpington (BR6), about 12 miles north-west: installing three Daikin cassette units in the main office area and a wall-mounted unit in the client meeting room.

How it works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, protect the area, carry out the job, check the system and talk you through it. The visit itself takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. For a village like Comp, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
- The outdoor unit gets its own clean, with leaves and debris cleared away.
- Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
- Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.
How to prepare
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Let us know where we can park and unload

Advice
Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Comp
Will you come out to Comp?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
How often should air conditioning in Comp be serviced?
Once a year suits most home systems. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Does the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?
The warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms. Read the conditions for your brand, as they may include servicing, and keep each service record with the warranty paperwork.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and we hold it.
What’s included in an air conditioning service?
Filters, coils, fans and the condensate drain are all cleaned and checked. We also check the electrical connections, the controls and the refrigerant performance plus a leak check on systems that need one.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
What we’re called out for in Comp
Filters clog gradually, a little more every day the system runs. Clogged filters choke the airflow, the coil can get too cold and the room takes longer to cool or warm.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Air conditioning that is not cooling as well as it did
- Noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
A service once a year suits most home systems, and some business systems need more.
What your quote should include
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
Owner checks or an engineer?
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
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.”
