Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Coxheath

How often do you service systems in Coxheath?

Typically once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.

Is Coxheath in your area for air conditioning servicing?

Yes. Coxheath is one of the places we cover. To start, phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk with a few photos.

Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?

A service does not include adding refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that’s short of gas has a leak. Where the checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it.

What’s included in an air conditioning service?

A clean of the parts that collect dirt and a check of the parts that do the work. Filters, coils and drains are cleaned, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant circuit checked with leak checks where the rules require them.

Do you work on systems someone else installed?

Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.

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 instance, is about 2.0 tCO2e. We read the charge from the label and work it out for you.

How do you keep the place clean during the work?

We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.

Air conditioning servicing in Coxheath, done properly

Servicing covers both halves of the system: the indoor units in the rooms and the outdoor unit outside. Filters and coils are cleaned, the drain is cleared, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are all checked. We service systems in Coxheath and across Kent, whatever the make. The work covers VRF systems, air-to-air heat pumps and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about no service record for the last year or more and F-gas leak checks falling due.

Outdoor units around Coxheath tend to be close to gardens and hedges, so the outdoor coil can clog with leaves and seeds. Cleaning it is part of every service.

For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Before you call an engineer

Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.

Some faults have simple causes you can check first: 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 call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

Why act early in Coxheath

Smells from an indoor unit tend to come back each time it runs. Cleaning the coil, the fan and the drain tray deals with the cause, rather than masking it. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

What we do, step by step

Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Send pictures of the space and the outside wall, and we can plan the work near Coxheath.

  1. A date is fixed and the service price confirmed in advance.
  2. Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
  3. Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
  4. We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
  5. A final test run follows, then you get the service record.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
  • Let us know where the consumer unit is
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

When to call us in Coxheath

When the system cools, water condenses on the indoor coil. That moisture traps dust, and a dirty coil and drain tray are a common source of musty smells.

These are the situations we see most often:

  • Smells coming from the indoor unit
  • Leak check records that need bringing up to date
  • New noises from the indoor or outdoor unit

Booking before the first hot spell means the system is ready when you need it.

Before you book anyone

  • What’s in the price and what is not
  • The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
  • Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
