How we handle air conditioning servicing in Fareham Common
Many manufacturers attach conditions to their warranties, and some of those may include regular servicing. The terms differ from brand to brand, so it’s worth reading yours, and we can explain what yours says. Our service record shows the work was done. The work covers ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and VRF systems, and people most often call us about a system that struggles to cool on warm days and systems that haven’t been serviced for a while.
A service around Fareham Common is booked to suit you, and most single systems take an hour or two.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Diary the next service before this one is forgotten
- Leave space around the outdoor unit for air to flow
- Do not wait for a small drip to become a leak
A maintenance contract takes the scheduling off your hands. We agree the visits and the cost up front so you don’t have to remember.
Make sure condensate pipes outside are not crushed, blocked or buried. A pipe that’s been knocked or covered can back up into the indoor unit.
What we do, step by step
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. On site, it takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Let us know how to reach the outside wall or outdoor unit at your property near Fareham Common.
- When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
- We check the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing, and carry out a leak check where the rules call for it.
- We leave you a record of the service and explain anything we found.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Advice

Keeping systems in Fareham Common running
Fareham Common is within about 1 mile of the coast. Salt air settles on outdoor coils, so coastal systems benefit from regular servicing. Central Fareham Common is inside the Fareham High Street Conservation Area. There are 5 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Fareham Common. About 146 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Fareham Common, Kintyre House (grade II*) among them. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent.
Site managers at schools like Wykeham House School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday. Businesses close to Fareham station can book an early or late slot so the service does not get in the way of trade.

Common questions in Fareham Common
How often should air conditioning in Fareham Common be serviced?
Once a year suits most home systems. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Fareham Common?
It can, as Fareham Common is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. Regular servicing, with the outdoor coil cleaned and checked, helps a coastal system last.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Can I have a maintenance contract for my air conditioning?
We do. A contract sets out how often we visit and what each visit covers, at a fixed price agreed with your quote. It suits anyone who would rather not track service dates.
Does the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?
The answer is in your manufacturer’s warranty conditions. Where servicing is a condition, keeping an annual service record helps show the terms were followed and we will help you check what applies.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
How long will the engineer be here for the service?
As a guide, it takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Ducted units in ceiling voids and outdoor units in awkward places can add time and we will let you know before the visit.
