Questions from Flaunden
Do you cover Flaunden for air conditioning servicing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Flaunden is part of that. Just give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few details.
Is Flaunden within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?
We check refrigerant performance on every service, but adding gas is separate work. If it’s low, a leak repair comes first and the regas follows with a fixed price for each step.
Does my air conditioning need an F-gas leak check?
Only if the system is at or above the threshold of 5 tCO2e. Many small split systems fall below it: 3 kg of R32, for instance, is about 2.0 tCO2e. We check the label and tell you whether your system needs checks and how often.
How long will the engineer be here for the service?
As a guide, it takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Units that are hard to reach can take longer and we’ll let you know before the visit.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
Yes. A contract sets out how often we visit and what each visit covers with the price fixed when you accept the quote. It suits anyone who would rather not track service dates.
What’s the price of a yearly air conditioning service?
The price for an annual service is £95–£150 + VAT. We confirm the exact figure before we book the visit, and larger multi-split, ducted or commercial systems are priced on their details.
Air conditioning servicing in Flaunden
A service is not the same as a regas. Refrigerant runs in a sealed circuit and shouldn’t need adding to. Where the checks suggest gas has been lost, the right step is to find the leak, and we will set out how. The work covers VRF systems, multi-split systems and wall-mounted split systems, and the jobs we see most are a service that’s overdue and a system that struggles to cool on warm days.
For a home in or near Flaunden, 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. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

What else we do in Flaunden
What happens on the day
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Flaunden.
- We ask about the system: the make, the number of indoor units and any problems you’ve noticed.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and cleared.
- Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
- We leave you a record of the service and explain anything we found.
How to prepare
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Advice
Aftercare tips
Simple habits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Clean the filters between services, as the manual describes
- Diary the next service before this one is forgotten
- Call about new noises or smells rather than waiting
Once we have gone, use the system as normal and see how it performs. If you notice anything unusual, phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll talk it through.
Make sure condensate pipes outside aren’t crushed, blocked or buried. A pipe that is been knocked or covered can back up into the indoor unit.
Keeping systems in Flaunden running
The middle of Flaunden is part of the Flaunden Conservation Area. Oak Cottage, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 17 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Flaunden’s centre. If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit. About 68% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Let us know where the outdoor unit sits and whether a ladder is needed to reach it.
Schools such as St Clement Danes School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty. Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling.

What air conditioning will not do
Air conditioning servicing cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. It won’t put right:
- Major component failures that call for a repair visit
- A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up
- A system that is too small for the room it serves
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.

How we price air conditioning servicing
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- How easy the units are to reach
- The size of the job
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.
A customer’s words
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
