Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Eddington
Servicing does not mean topping up refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that’s short of gas has a leak somewhere. If the performance checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it rather than just topping up. If you are dealing with an unpleasant odour when the system runs and no service record for the last year or more, we can help.
We plan the trip to Eddington and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
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.

What affects the quote in Eddington
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- How many units are involved
- The condition of any existing system
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.
What to send for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- Your installation or service records
Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

What else we do in Eddington
What owners can safely do
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Check the condensate pipe outside is not blocked or crushed
- Book the service at least once a year
- Keep the filters clean between visits
Put the next service in the diary right away. 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.
Check that the condensate pipe outside can still drain. A pipe that is been knocked or covered can back up into the indoor unit.
Eddington questions
Will you come out to Eddington?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Does my air con in Eddington need a yearly service?
A yearly visit is right for most households. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Are you F-Gas certified?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. You get a written record of each visit, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: agree the plan on site, put the dust sheets down, do the work, check the system and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Eddington.
- We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
- Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
- The outdoor unit gets its own clean, with leaves and debris cleared away.
- We test the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing.
- Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Tell us about parking and loading
Getting a price
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
