About our air conditioning servicing in Criddlestyle
Servicing doesn’t mean topping up refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that is short of gas has a leak somewhere. Where the checks suggest gas has been lost, the right step is to find the leak, and we will set out how. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, ducted systems and wall-mounted split systems, and the jobs we see most are warning lights on the indoor unit and a system that struggles to cool on warm days.
Several units at a home near Criddlestyle can be serviced in one visit.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

When to call us in Criddlestyle
Dust settles on the filters every time the unit is on. Clogged filters choke the airflow and the unit has to work harder to reach the set temperature.
The things we are asked about most include:
- Ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit
- Condensate leaking into the room
- Leak check records that need bringing up to date
Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more.
Before you book anyone
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
- If the figure could change on the day
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why
After we have gone
A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Know your manufacturer’s servicing conditions
- Shut doors to the room so the system is not cooling the whole house
- File each service record with the manufacturer’s documents
A maintenance contract takes the scheduling off your hands. The visits and the price are fixed with your quote so you do not have to remember.
Act on the early signs. Odd noises, smells and drips are cheaper to sort out before they grow than after a breakdown.

Keeping systems in Criddlestyle running
The centre of Criddlestyle lies within the Western Escarpment Conservation Area. East Mills Manor, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 3 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Criddlestyle’s centre. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building. About 78% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book.
For a school like The Burgate School and Sixth Form, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

What happens on the day
The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant, and we clear up before we go. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Criddlestyle.
- You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- Each indoor unit has its covers lifted so the filters, coil and tray can be 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.
- If a repair is needed, you hear why and what it costs before anything is done.
Preparing for the visit
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Advice
Different systems, different jobs
Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units
Ducted units sit out of sight in ceiling voids. Servicing means reaching the unit through an access hatch so it helps to know where the access is before we arrive.
Indoor and outdoor coils
Coil fins are thin and easily flattened. We’ll point out damaged fins and whether they matter.
