Air conditioning servicing for Headley Down

Different systems, different jobs

Filters

When filters fill with dust, less air moves through the system. 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. As an example, 3 kg of R32 comes to about 2.0 tCO2e, while 3 kg of R410A is about 6.3 tCO2e. We read the charge from the unit’s label and work it out for you.

How we handle air conditioning servicing in Headley Down

Every hour, an indoor unit draws the room’s air through its filter and over its coil again and again. Dust, fluff and anything else in the air ends up on those parts. A service clears it away, so the system can move air properly and the drain can do its job. If the problem is a system that struggles to cool on warm days and error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit, we can help.

We book services in Headley Down at a time that suits you, and most single systems take an hour or two.

Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

The process

Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first, so you can plan around it. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. On site, it takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. In a place like Headley Down, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.

  1. When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
  2. On arrival, a quick performance check shows how well it’s working before the clean.
  3. Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
  4. Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
  5. You get a service record, with anything that needs attention explained.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
  • Clear access to the fuse board

Getting a price

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Do you look at the job first?

Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.

Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?

Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.

How long does an air conditioning service take?

It takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. The number of indoor units and how easy they are to reach make the biggest difference so we’ll confirm the time when we book.

What does an air con service involve?

A clean of the parts that collect dirt and a check of the parts that do the work. Filters, coils and drains are cleaned, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant circuit checked, and F-gas leak checks where they apply.

Do you work on systems someone else installed?

Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.

Looking after your system

Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:

  • Keep doors and windows closed while the system is cooling
  • Read the warranty conditions for your brand
  • Keep to an annual service, or more often if needed

Where the system needs F-gas leak checks, the result is recorded, and the next check is due within the period the rules set. We can book it in ahead of time.

Don’t ignore small changes. A new noise, a faint smell or a drip is easier to deal with early than after a breakdown.

How we price air conditioning servicing

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:

  • What state the existing equipment is in
  • What kind of system it is
  • The brand, model and parts involved

The cost depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, the access and the parts and time the job needs. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

What we need to know

To speed up the quote, send us:

  • A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
  • Where the property is and what kind of building it is
  • The rating plate or label on any existing unit

Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from photos or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To get going, phone us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
