Air conditioning servicing in Ealing and nearby

What we are called out for in Ealing

Electrical terminals can work loose as the system heats, cools and vibrates. A loose connection can cause faults that come and go which is why they’re checked on every service.

The things we are asked about most are:

  • An unpleasant odour when the system runs
  • A unit showing a fault code
  • Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check

For an office near Ealing Broadway station, servicing can be booked before or after working hours.

Air conditioning servicing in Ealing, done properly

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. If the problem is no service record for the last year or more and systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check, we can help.

In Ealing, a business system may need a leak check by law as well as a service, depending on its refrigerant charge. The check is recorded, with the next date noted.

The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler and it’s worth keeping safe.

Servicing in Ealing: local notes

About 56% of homes across Ealing and its surrounding area were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 60% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). Balcony, roof or high wall? Knowing where a flat’s outdoor unit is helps us bring the right access kit. City dust and debris build up on London outdoor units, which is why servicing matters. The centre of Ealing lies within the Ealing Green Conservation Area. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Ealing and it takes in 10 conservation areas. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 32 within half a mile of the centre, such as Pitzhanger Manor House (grade I). That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent.

For a school like Ealing Independent College, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

Ealing is about 7 miles west of City of Westminster, in Greater London. Wherever you are in the W5 postcode area, our engineers can take on air conditioning servicing. Ealing is one of 764 places in Greater London where we work for homes and businesses. We also work in London, around 9 miles away.

For landlords and property managers

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the property, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed-price quote.

Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.

What we do, step by step

Each visit follows the same order: check the plan with you, protect the area, do the work, test what we have done and explain it all to you. The visit itself takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Before a visit in Ealing, we ask where the van can stop and how we reach the outdoor unit.

  1. It begins with a few questions about the make, the rooms served and any symptoms.
  2. The indoor units are opened up and the filters, coils and drain trays cleaned.
  3. The outdoor unit gets its own clean, with leaves and debris cleared away.
  4. Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are tested.
  5. Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.

How to prepare

  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

Looking after your system

Once we have finished, these simple steps help:

  • Rinse the indoor unit filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
  • Check the condensate pipe outside isn’t blocked or crushed
  • Read the warranty conditions for your brand

Once we’ve gone, use the system as normal and see how it performs. If anything seems off, ring us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll look into it.

Check that the condensate pipe outside can still drain. If the outlet is blocked, the water has to go somewhere, and that’s normally back towards the indoor unit.

Ealing: your questions answered

Does my air con in Ealing need a yearly service?

Usually once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.

Do you cover Ealing for air conditioning servicing?

Yes. Ealing is one of the places we cover. To start, ring 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few pictures.

What do you check on an air conditioning service?

We clean the filters and coils, clear the condensate drain and check the fans. The electrics, controls and refrigerant circuit are tested too plus a leak check on systems that need one.

Do you work on systems someone else installed?

Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.

When is an F-gas leak check required?

Only if the system is at or above the threshold of 5 tCO2e. Plenty of small splits sit under it, as 3 kg of R32 works out at about 2.0 tCO2e. We check the label and tell you whether your system needs checks and how often.

Are you F-Gas certified?

F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.

Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?

No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.

From one of our customers

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
