Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in East Garston

An annual service is £95–£150 + VAT, confirmed before the visit is booked. Multi-split, ducted and commercial systems are priced once we know what’s there. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. Typical jobs include water dripping from the indoor unit and warning lights on the indoor unit, across multi-split systems, ducted systems and wall-mounted split systems.

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

Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

How the visit works

The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. The visit takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in East Garston.

  1. We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
  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. If a repair is needed, you hear why and what it costs before anything is done.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children away from the work area
  • Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

Advice

What you can do yourself, and what needs us

Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.

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. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.

What the work involves, system by system

Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units

Ducted units sit out of sight in ceiling voids. Servicing means reaching the unit through an access hatch so it helps to know where the access is before we arrive.

Indoor and outdoor coils

Coil fins are thin and easily flattened. We note any damage and tell you if it’s affecting performance.

What air conditioning servicing cannot fix

Not every problem is solved by air conditioning servicing, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t put right:

  • A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
  • Installation faults that need reworking
  • Heat from large windows, roof spaces or equipment beyond the system’s capacity

Not sure which it is? You can ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Your questions about air conditioning servicing in East Garston

How often do you service systems in East Garston?

A yearly visit is right for most households. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.

Can you do air conditioning servicing in East Garston?

We do: East Garston falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.

What’s included in an air conditioning service?

A clean of the parts that collect dirt and a check of the parts that do the work. That means filters, coils and drains, plus electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance, and F-gas leak checks where they apply.

Which manufacturers do you install and repair?

Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.

How much time does an air con service need?

Expect it to take a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. The number of indoor units and how easy they are to reach make the biggest difference so we’ll confirm the time when we book.

Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first. Census 2021 figures found about 71% of households in detached or semi-detached houses.
