How we handle air conditioning servicing in Finkley Down
We’re asked to service systems for many different reasons: smells at start-up, a unit that struggles on hot days, drips from the indoor unit, or a service that’s overdue. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. The work covers ceiling cassettes, wall-mounted split systems and multi-split systems, and the jobs we see most are smells coming from the indoor unit and condensate leaking into the room.
We plan the trip to Finkley Down and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

What else we do in Finkley Down
Finkley Down questions
How often do you service systems in Finkley Down?
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 come out to Finkley Down?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
What’s included in an air conditioning service?
We clean the filters and coils, clear the condensate drain and check the fans. We also check the electrical connections, the controls and the refrigerant performance plus a leak check on systems that need one.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts before we leave.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. 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.
How it works
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Finkley Down easier.
- 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.
- We clean the filters and coils and make sure the condensate drains away.
- Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
- A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time

Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

What the work involves, system by system
Filters
A clogged filter cuts the airflow through the unit. That makes it harder for the system to reach the temperature you’ve set so cleaning them is one of the first jobs.
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
tCO2e is the refrigerant charge in kg multiplied by its global warming potential, divided by 1,000. So 3 kg of R32 is roughly 2.0 tCO2e, and the same amount of R410A is roughly 6.3 tCO2e. We read the charge from the unit’s label and work it out for you.
When to call us in Finkley Down
Each indoor unit makes water when it cools, and that water needs a clear route out. Sludge and debris can block the tray, the pipe or the pump and the result is drips from the indoor unit.
The things we are asked about most are:
- Smells coming from the indoor unit
- F-gas leak checks falling due
- Error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit
Booking before the first hot spell means the system is ready when you need it.
