Air Conditioning Servicing in Cripp's Corner
Air conditioning servicing for Cripp's Corner, from F-Gas certified engineers, with warranty terms explained brand by brand. We reply to enquiries the same working day.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Cripp's Corner
A service is as much a check-up as a clean. The engineer checks fans, pipe insulation, controls and electrical connections, and tells you about anything that looks like it’s heading for trouble. Typical jobs include new noises from the indoor or outdoor unit and condensate leaking into the room, across ducted systems, wall-mounted split systems and ceiling cassettes.
Several units at a home near Cripp's Corner can be serviced in one visit.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

Cripp's Corner questions
How often do you service systems in Cripp's Corner?
For most homes, once a year. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Will you come out to Cripp's Corner?
Yes. Cripp's Corner 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.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before work begins, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Are you F-Gas certified?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
What’s included in an air conditioning service?
We clean the filters and coils, clear the condensate drain and check the fans. We also check the electrical connections, the controls and the refrigerant performance, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Honest limits
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what air conditioning servicing won’t do:
- A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up
- Heat gains the system was never sized for
- A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.
Where we work

How the visit works
Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work, and we ask before moving anything. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. It takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit, and we tidy up before we leave. Seeing the property in pictures first means the trip to Cripp's Corner can be planned properly.
- When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
- Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
- A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.
Before we arrive
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
