About our air conditioning servicing in Durford Wood
Whether a leak check is required depends on how much refrigerant the system holds and which refrigerant it is. Under the GOV.UK rules, 5 to under 50 tCO2e means a leak check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e means every 6 months. We tell you which band your system falls into and carry out the checks it needs. We are often asked to deal with smells coming from the indoor unit and air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did, on ceiling cassettes, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems.
Around Durford Wood, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly service clears them.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Owner checks or an engineer?
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. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
Servicing in Durford Wood: local notes
Roughly 3 protected buildings and structures stand in the half-mile around Durford Wood’s centre. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. The last census (2021) found about 71% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day.
Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling.

What else we do in Durford Wood
Common problems we fix in Durford Wood
Filters clog gradually, a little more every day the system runs. Clogged filters choke the airflow, the coil can get too cold and the room takes longer to cool or warm.
It’s time to call us if you are dealing with:
- A service that’s overdue
- Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
Site managers at schools like Liss Infant School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday.

- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- How easy the units are to reach
- The size of the job
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.
Does the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?
The warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms. Read the conditions for your brand, as they may include servicing, and keep each service record with the warranty paperwork.

How do you keep the place clean during the work?

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
