About our air conditioning servicing in Eccles
An annual service is £95–£150 + VAT, and we confirm the figure before we book you in. Larger systems with several indoor units, ducted units or commercial plant are priced on their details. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. We’re often asked to deal with F-gas leak checks falling due and smells coming from the indoor unit, across air-to-air heat pumps, multi-split systems and ducted systems.
Several units at a home near Eccles can be serviced in one visit.
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, so keep it safe.

How the job changes from property to property
Fans and electrics
The indoor and outdoor fans move the air across the coils. We check they run smoothly and quietly and clean the indoor fan where dust has built up.
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
To find tCO2e, multiply the kg of refrigerant by its GWP and divide by 1,000. So 3 kg of R32 is roughly 2.0 tCO2e, and the same amount of R410A is roughly 6.3 tCO2e. We read the charge from the unit’s label and work it out for you.
What else we do in Eccles
Common problems we fix in Eccles
Each indoor unit makes water when it cools, and that water needs a clear route out. Sludge and debris can block the tray, the pipe or the pump, and the water then has nowhere to go but out of the unit.
It’s time to call us if you’re dealing with:
- Drips or damp patches below an indoor unit
- Smells coming from the indoor unit
- Weaker cooling than last year
For a school like St Mark's Church of England Primary School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.
What your quote should include
- How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
Eccles questions
How often do you service systems in Eccles?
Once a year suits most home systems. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
Will you come out to Eccles?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
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.
How quickly will you reply?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
The GOV.UK rules set leak checks at least every 12 months for 5 to under 50 tCO2e and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e. With leak detection fitted, the interval can be doubled, and we can tell you where your system sits.
Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?
Not as a routine part of the service. If a system has lost refrigerant, it has leaked from somewhere. Where the checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it.
The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and the rest is down to us. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Work in Eccles is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
- The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.
- We test the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing.
- If a repair is needed, you hear why and what it costs before anything is done.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Advice
When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what air conditioning servicing will not do:
- Installation faults that need reworking
- A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up
- Rooms that gain heat faster than any unit could cope with
If you are not sure, just phone us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Air conditioning servicing in Eccles: the local picture

Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned. About 5 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Eccles, The Red Bull Public House (grade II) among them.
