Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Hammersmith
Every hour, an indoor unit draws the room’s air through its filter and over its coil again and again. Whatever is in the air, from dust to pet hair, collects on the filter and coil. A service clears it away, letting air pass through the unit properly and the condensate drain away. We’re often asked to deal with frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes and leak check records that need bringing up to date, on wall-mounted split systems, multi-split systems and ducted systems.
Systems in Hammersmith often run in both summer and winter, so a yearly service keeps them efficient. Outdoor units on balconies and roofs pick up city dust and debris, which a service clears.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

What happens on the day
Every visit follows the same order: agree the plan on site, put the dust sheets down, do the work, check the system and talk you through it. The visit itself takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Parking bays, permits and roof or balcony access are the first things we ask about in Hammersmith.
- We start with the basics, such as the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- On arrival, a quick performance check shows how well it’s working before the clean.
- 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.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Advice
Servicing in Hammersmith: local notes
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 68% of homes in and around Hammersmith before 1919, and Census 2021 figures found about 79% of households live in flats. Outdoor units serving flats can be awkward to reach, so let us know where yours is. City dust and debris build up on London outdoor units, which is why servicing matters. Central Hammersmith is inside a conservation area. 2 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Hammersmith. About 64 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Hammersmith, Church of the Holy Innocents (grade II*) among them. 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.
Businesses close to Kensington Olympia station can book an early or late slot so the service does not get in the way of trade. If you look after a school such as Corona Theatre School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

FAQs for Hammersmith
How often do you service systems in Hammersmith?
Usually once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Is Hammersmith in your area for air conditioning servicing?
Yes, Hammersmith is within the area we cover. Just phone 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few details.
Do you top up refrigerant during a service?
The service checks how the refrigerant circuit is performing, but does not include adding gas. If gas has been lost, the right step is a leak search and repair, then a regas, priced before any work starts.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
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. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
What’s included in an air conditioning service?
Both the indoor and outdoor units are checked and cleaned: filters, coils, drains and fans, then the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing. A service record follows.
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 let you know before the visit.
Which accreditations do you hold?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We’re also Checkatrade members.
Looking after your system
A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- File each service record with the manufacturer’s documents
- Read the warranty conditions for your brand
- Rinse the indoor unit filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
When we finish, we leave a record of the visit, with the checks carried out and anything we’d recommend. File it with the system’s manual and warranty documents so you have the whole history together.
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.
Let and managed properties
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed-price quote.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.

Why deal with it now?
Check your manufacturer’s warranty conditions before letting servicing lapse. If servicing is one of the terms, a missing service record could matter if you ever need to make a claim. We can go through the terms with you. Approvals for flats in Hammersmith can take longer than the install itself.
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we will explain what it covers.
