Common questions in Eastrop

How often should air conditioning in Eastrop be serviced?

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.

Will you come out to Eastrop?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.

Why use an F-Gas certified company?

Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.

Do you work on commercial properties?

Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Eastrop and across Hampshire. Let us know who the records should go to.

Will you work on another installer’s system?

Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.

What does an air con service involve?

The service covers the indoor units and the outdoor unit: the filters, coils, drain and fans, followed by the wiring, controls and refrigerant performance. A service record follows.

How quickly will you reply?

The same working day. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.

About our air conditioning servicing in Eastrop

A manufacturer’s warranty can come with conditions, and regular servicing may be one of them. Each brand sets its own terms and we are happy to go through them with you. You get a record of each service to keep with the warranty paperwork. The work covers ducted systems, multi-split systems and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are smells coming from the indoor unit and air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did.

We book services in Eastrop at a time that suits you, and a single system normally takes an hour or two.

Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Eastrop

How often a system needs servicing depends partly on how hard it works. Heat pumps used for winter heating and units in busy offices, shops or kitchens get through a lot of air and so builds up dirt more quickly.

Look out for these signs:

  • Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check
  • Weaker cooling than last year
  • No service record for the last year or more

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

Before you book anyone

  • What records you get at the end
  • Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
  • Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first

Keeping the system healthy

Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:

  • Keep the service records with the warranty paperwork
  • Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
  • Report drips, smells or noises early

The best time to book the next service is now, while you remember. Many people book in spring, before the cooling season, or in autumn if they use the system for heating, though any time of year works.

An annual service is the simplest routine to keep to, and more often if the system works hard or the rules require it.

How the visit works

The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, and that takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. We plan the visit to Eastrop from the survey or your photos.

  1. We book a time that suits you and confirm the price.
  2. Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
  3. We clean the filters, coils and fans and clear the condensate drain.
  4. Electrical and refrigerant checks follow, including a leak check if the rules require one.
  5. A final test run follows, then you get the service record.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
  • Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Getting a price

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Advice

What the work involves, system by system

Refrigerant performance and leak checks

The law requires leak checks once a system reaches 5 tCO2e: at least every 12 months from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e. Hermetically sealed systems under 10 tCO2e are exempt.

Filters

Some systems have extra filters for fine dust or odours. They’re checked too, and we explain what the manufacturer suggests.

A customer’s words

“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.”
