Servicing in Coombe: local notes
On the National Heritage List, around 13 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Coombe; Church of St Peter and St Paul (grade II*) is one. Day-to-day work on an existing system isn’t affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be. About 42% of homes in Coombe and the neighbourhoods around it date from 1945 to 1972, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and about 69% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit.
Schools such as Great Kimble Church of England School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty.

Air conditioning servicing in Coombe
Maintenance contracts suit anyone who would rather not have to remember when the next service is due. The visits, the scope and the cost are fixed with your quote, and the servicing happens on schedule. The work covers VRF systems, air-to-air heat pumps and wall-mounted split systems, and common reasons people get in touch are systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check and an unpleasant odour when the system runs.
Around Coombe, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly service clears them.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Coombe questions
Will you come out to Coombe?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Does my air con in Coombe need a yearly service?
Once a year suits most home systems. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
How much time does an air con service need?
As a guide, it takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Ducted units in ceiling voids and outdoor units in awkward places can add time, and we will tell you in advance.
Will you make a mess?
Protection goes down first: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts before we leave.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
The requirement starts at 5 tCO2e. Many small split systems fall below it: 3 kg of R32, for example, is about 2.0 tCO2e. We read the charge from the label and work it out for you.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. Each visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
When to call us in Coombe
Systems that run most of the year collect dirt faster than ones used on a few hot days. A system used for heating as well as cooling, or one in a busy workplace, sees far more running hours and so builds up dirt more quickly.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- No service record for the last year or more
- An unpleasant odour when the system runs
- Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
A service once a year suits most home systems, and some business systems need more.
Questions to ask before you book
- What the manufacturer’s warranty covers and for how long
- If the figure could change on the day
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
How we price air conditioning servicing
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- The brand, model and parts involved
- The number of rooms, units or zones
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. To get one, phone us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.

Advice
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
