About our air conditioning servicing in Crays Hill
Air conditioning pulls room air through a filter and across a cold coil many times an hour. Dust, fluff and anything else in the air ends up on those parts. Servicing removes it, letting air pass through the unit properly and the condensate drain away. If you are dealing with condensate leaking into the room and a system that struggles to cool on warm days, we can help.
Around Crays Hill, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, where seeds and leaves collect on the coil. A yearly service clears them.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For example, 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.

Leave it or put it right?
Drainage problems tend to grow. What starts as a damp patch under the indoor unit can become water running down the wall, so it’s worth clearing before that happens. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
One room or a whole building, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the equipment. The price is fixed before work begins, with VAT shown clearly.

Common questions in Crays Hill
How often do you service systems in Crays Hill?
Normally once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
Is Crays Hill within the area you cover?
Yes. Crays Hill is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. Every visit is written up, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from pictures and details for simple jobs. A fixed-price quote follows.
Which brands do you work with?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
How the job changes from property to property
Indoor and outdoor coils
Coil fins are thin and easily flattened. We note any damage and tell you if it’s affecting performance.
Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units
Cassette units are set into the ceiling and blow air in several directions. We drop the grille to clean the filters and check the condensate pump.

What a service looks like in Crays Hill
At about 25 miles from central London, Crays Hill sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East. About 63% of homes in Crays Hill and the neighbourhoods around it date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data, and Census 2021 figures found about 88% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs.
Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling. Schools such as Crays Hill Primary School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty.

The process
The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. The work on site takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation, and we clear up before we go. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Crays Hill so we arrive with what’s needed.
- When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
- We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
- Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
- We check the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing, and carry out a leak check where the rules call for it.
- We leave you a record of the service and explain anything we found.
Before we arrive
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
