- New noises from the indoor or outdoor unit
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
How it works
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. On site, the work takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. For a place like Five Oak Green, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We start with the basics, such as the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
- Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and 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.
Before we arrive
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- 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.

How we handle air conditioning servicing in Five Oak Green
Maintenance contracts suit anyone who would rather not have to remember when the next service is due. We agree the visits, what each one covers and the price with your quote, so the system is looked after on a regular schedule. We are often asked to deal with warning lights on the indoor unit and condensate leaking into the room, on wall-mounted split systems, VRF systems and multi-split systems.
In a village like Five Oak Green, outdoor units often face hedges, fields or gardens, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly clean keeps the system working well.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

Five Oak Green: your questions answered
Will you come out to Five Oak Green?
Yes. Five Oak Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Do you cover Five Oak Green for air conditioning servicing?
We do: Five Oak Green falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
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.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Five Oak Green
The indoor coil is cold and wet when the system is cooling. Dust sticks to a wet surface, and over time the coil and drain tray can get dirty enough to smell.
Look out for these signs:
- Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check
- A unit showing a fault code
- Ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit
Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more.
Questions to ask before booking
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
- Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.
Leave it or put it right?
A musty smell from the system is rarely something that clears on its own. Cleaning the coil, the fan and the drain tray deals with the cause, rather than masking it. Getting the date in early helps for a place like Five Oak Green.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Why book with us
- One contact for properties across the South East and London
- MCS certified for heat pumps
- Emergency calls taken 24/7
- F-Gas certified company
