FAQs for Dial Post
Does my air con in Dial Post need a yearly service?
Once a year suits most home systems. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Do you cover Dial Post for air conditioning servicing?
Yes, Dial Post is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Does the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?
That’s down to your manufacturer’s terms, which vary. Where servicing is a condition, keeping an annual service record helps show the terms were followed and we will help you check what applies.
Do you top up refrigerant during a service?
A service doesn’t include adding refrigerant. If a system has lost refrigerant, it has leaked from somewhere. Where the checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
We do, for one unit at home or many across a site. The visits, what each covers and the price are agreed with your quote and the servicing happens on time.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.
What affects the cost of air conditioning servicing
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- The condition of any existing system
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all make a difference.
What to send for a quote
Good photos often save a visit. Try to include:
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
What owners can safely do
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Keeping systems in Dial Post running
On the National Heritage List, around 6 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Dial Post; Alma Cottage (grade II) is one. Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first. About 74% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs.
A musty smell from the indoor unit is often a sign it needs a service. Booking before the first hot spell means the system is ready when you need it.

How the visit works
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you don’t need a separate electrician for the electrical side. On site, it takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Visits to Dial Post are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
- On arrival, a quick performance check shows how well it’s working before the clean.
- Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and cleared.
- Temperatures and pressures tell us how the refrigerant circuit is doing, alongside checks on the wiring and controls.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
How to prepare
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in

“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
