Air conditioning servicing in Crofton

Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Crofton

Maintenance contracts suit anyone who would rather not have to remember when the next service is due. We agree the visits, what each one covers and the price with your quote, so the system is looked after on a regular schedule. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, multi-split systems and ceiling cassettes, and people most often call us about a service that’s overdue and air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did.

Systems in Crofton often run in both summer and winter, which is a good reason for a yearly service. In London, outdoor coils collect dust, grime and leaves, which a service clears.

For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

What affects the quote in Crofton

The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:

  • What electrical work the job needs
  • Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
  • The pipe route between the units

What you pay depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, how easy the units are to reach and the parts and time the job needs. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Before you get in touch

When you contact us, these details help:

  • A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
  • A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
  • Any previous service or F-Gas records

VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. To get one, ring us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.

Before you call an 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 refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.

Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.

Different systems, different jobs

Fans and electrics

The indoor and outdoor fans move the air across the coils. We check they run smoothly and quietly and clean the indoor fan where dust has built up.

Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units

With a ducted system, the unit is hidden above the ceiling. We need access to the unit, its filters and its drain, so let us know where the hatch is.

Is Crofton in your area for air conditioning servicing?

Why use an F-Gas certified company?

Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.

What do you check on 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.

Will you make a mess?

Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.

Do I need a service to keep the manufacturer’s warranty?

The answer is in your manufacturer’s warranty conditions. If servicing is required, a regular service record is the evidence and we’ll help you check what applies.

How the visit works

Every visit follows the same order: check the plan with you, protect the area, carry out the job, check the system and explain it all to you. The visit itself takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Managed buildings in London often need contractors booked in, and we can deal with the agent for a job in Crofton.

  1. It begins with a few questions about the make, the rooms served and any symptoms.
  2. Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
  3. The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.
  4. Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
  5. Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.
