Common questions in Dunbridge

Is Dunbridge within the area you cover?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Do you cover Dunbridge for air conditioning servicing?

Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Dunbridge is part of that. To start, phone us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few pictures.

Do you do service contracts for air con?

We do, for one unit at home or many across a site. We fix the schedule, the scope and the cost with your quote and the servicing happens on time.

Do you work on commercial properties?

Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.

What does an annual air con service cost?

£95–£150 + VAT covers the annual service, confirmed before we book. Any repair is priced separately and only done with your agreement.

Do I get paperwork after the visit?

Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.

Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?

Not as a routine part of the service. If a system has lost refrigerant, it has leaked from somewhere. We check the refrigerant performance, and if we suspect a leak we explain how it can be found and repaired.

Air conditioning servicing in Dunbridge

Whether a leak check is required depends on how much refrigerant the system holds and which refrigerant it is. GOV.UK sets the frequency by the system’s tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e): at least every 12 months from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e. We tell you which band your system falls into and carry out the checks it needs. The work covers ceiling cassettes, air-to-air heat pumps and VRF systems, and common reasons people get in touch are leak check records that need bringing up to date and a system that struggles to cool on warm days.

Several units at a home near Dunbridge can be serviced in one visit.

Looking after your system

Systems last better with the right care. We suggest:

  • File each service record with the manufacturer’s documents
  • Diary the next service before this one is forgotten
  • Report drips, smells or noises early

For systems that need them, the leak check and its result go on record and the next one falls due within 6 or 12 months, depending on the system. We can diary it for you.

Cleaning the filters between services helps a great deal. Most indoor units have filters you can slide out and rinse, and the manual shows how.

What happens on the day

Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. The visit takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Somewhere like Dunbridge, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.

  1. A date is fixed and the service price confirmed in advance.
  2. We switch the system on and check it in operation.
  3. We clean the filters, coils and fans and clear the condensate drain.
  4. The electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with a leak check where required.
  5. We run the system again and leave you a service record.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
  • Mention any parking restrictions near the property
  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

Safe owner checks

There are a few things you can safely do yourself: 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.

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.

What happens if it’s left?

A dirty filter or coil makes the system work harder for the same result. A service puts that right with a clean and lets the system run as it was designed to. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.

Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Ask for a fixed-price quote and we’ll explain each part.

Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we will flag it if a replacement is needed. VOA council tax data show about 45% of homes in Dunbridge and the neighbourhoods around it were built in 2000 or later, and the last census (2021) found about 73% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book.

If you run premises near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, ask about servicing several units in one visit. If you look after a school such as Awbridge Primary School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

“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.”
