Managing agents and facilities teams in Edney Common

Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we’ll keep everyone informed.

Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.

Air conditioning servicing in Edney Common

For an annual service, the price is £95–£150 + VAT, confirmed before the visit is booked. Larger systems with several indoor units, ducted units or commercial plant are priced on their details. There’s no guessing at the bill afterwards. If you’re dealing with error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit and smells coming from the indoor unit, we can sort it out.

For a home in or near Edney Common, a service once a year suits most systems, best done before summer.

Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Why it’s worth doing now in Edney Common

Faults found on a service can often be put right before they cause a breakdown. Left alone, the same fault tends to show itself when you most need the system. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Why us?

  • Electrical work covered by our NICEIC approval
  • Covering London and the South East
  • Warranty terms set out brand by brand
  • Every job looked at before it’s priced

How it works

We keep the work area tidy as we go, 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 anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. For a village like Edney Common, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. We ask about the system: the make, the number of indoor units and any problems you’ve noticed.
  2. The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
  3. We clean the filters and coils and make sure the condensate drains away.
  4. The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
  5. A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
  • Let us know where the consumer unit is

How to get a quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Edney Common

A slow leak can go unnoticed for a long time. The system just cools or heats a little less well each year, until it cannot keep up on the hottest or coldest days.

Reasons to give us a call include:

  • Noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit
  • Warning lights on the indoor unit
  • A musty or damp smell when the unit starts

Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling.

What your quote should include

  • How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
  • Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
