Air conditioning servicing in Ferring

Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Ferring

A manufacturer’s warranty can come with conditions, and regular servicing may be one of them. Each brand sets its own terms, and we can explain what yours says. Our service record shows the work was done. If the problem is an unpleasant odour when the system runs and noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit, we can help.

For most homes near Ferring, a service once a year keeps the system efficient and the filters clean, and some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler and it’s worth keeping safe.

What we do, step by step

Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Around Ferring, access is usually simple, though gates and garden access are worth mentioning.

  1. We book a time that suits you and confirm the price.
  2. We switch the system on and check it in operation.
  3. Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
  4. We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
  5. We run the system again and leave you a service record.

How to prepare

  • Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them
  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

Ask for a quote

Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

What the work involves, system by system

Refrigerant performance and leak checks

To find tCO2e, multiply the kg of refrigerant by its GWP and divide by 1,000. As an example, 3 kg of R32 comes to about 2.0 tCO2e, while 3 kg of R410A is about 6.3 tCO2e. We check the label on your system and tell you where it sits.

Filters

The filter is the first line of defence for the indoor unit. On a service, they’re cleaned and checked for tears and we’ll say if one needs replacing.

Ferring questions

Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Ferring?

It can. Ferring is within about 1 mile of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. A yearly service that rinses and checks the outdoor coil matters more near the sea.

How often do you service systems in Ferring?

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.

Can I have a maintenance contract for my air conditioning?

We do, for one unit at home or many across a site. We fix the schedule, the scope and the cost with your quote and the servicing happens on time.

How much time does an air con service need?

As a guide, it takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Ducted units in ceiling voids and outdoor units in awkward places can add time, and we will tell you in advance.

Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?

We check refrigerant performance on every service, but adding gas is separate work. If gas has been lost, the right step is a leak search and repair, then a regas with a fixed price for each step.

Will you make a mess?

Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.

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. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.

When it’s something else

In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:

  • Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
  • Rooms that gain heat faster than any unit could cope with
  • A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up

If in doubt, phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What a service looks like in Ferring

Ferring is within about 1 mile of the coast. A yearly service matters more near the coast, where salt speeds up corrosion on coils and fixings. Valuation Office Agency council tax records date about 53% of homes in and around Ferring to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and the 2021 Census found about 88% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day. Roughly a third of a mile or less from central Ferring, you reach the Ferring Conservation Area. There are 3 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Ferring. The Parish Church of St Andrew, listed at grade I, is one of roughly 17 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Ferring’s centre. Day-to-day work on an existing system is not affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be.

For a school like Ferring CofE Primary School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term. Offices and shops near Goring-By-Sea station can have their systems serviced without closing.

Looking after it afterwards

So the system stays in good health:

  • Leave space around the outdoor unit for air to flow
  • Don’t wait for a small drip to become a leak
  • Clean the filters between services, as the manual describes

Any fault we find is explained, with a fixed price for the repair. We do not carry out extra work until you’ve agreed it and the decision is always yours.

Make sure condensate pipes outside are not crushed, blocked or buried. A pipe that is been knocked or covered can back up into the indoor unit.

From one of our customers

“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.”
