How the job changes from property to property
Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units
Ceiling cassettes are common in offices, shops and restaurants. We drop the grille to clean the filters and check the condensate pump.
Condensate drains and pumps
Drain trays can collect sludge. Cleaning them helps with drips and with musty smells.
Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Eddington
Servicing is also a chance to spot faults early. The engineer checks fans, pipe insulation, controls and electrical connections, then explains anything that looks like it could cause a problem later. If you are dealing with a unit showing a fault code and ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit, we can help.
We book services in Eddington at a time that suits you, and a single system usually takes an hour or two.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

Aftercare tips
Looking after it is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep plants, bins and stored items away from the outdoor unit
- Don’t wait for a small drip to become a leak
- Keep to an annual service, or more often if needed
Run the system for a while after the visit and check it feels right. If you notice anything unusual, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we will look into it.
Keep the area around the outdoor unit clear. Plants, bins and stored items piled around it get in the way of the air it needs, so clear them back.
The process
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Visits to a place like Eddington are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the job needs.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that is been bothering you.
- On arrival, a quick performance check shows how well it’s working before the clean.
- Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
- The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
- We leave you a record of the service and explain anything we found.
How to prepare
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Rented and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party, and the paperwork can go to both.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is, and we can work for either side.
Eddington: your questions answered
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Eddington?
It can. Eddington is within about 2 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. Regular servicing, with the outdoor coil cleaned and checked, helps a coastal system last.
How often do you service systems in Eddington?
Once a year suits most home systems. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
What accreditations do you have?
We’re an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. That is not optional: it’s required by law, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for problems that cannot wait for a planned visit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
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. You get a record of the visit.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
Under GOV.UK guidance, systems of 5 to under 50 tCO2e need a check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e every 6 months. With leak detection fitted, the interval can be doubled, and we can tell you where your system sits.
