About our air conditioning servicing in Hitchambury
We’re asked to service systems for many different reasons: a musty smell, weak cooling, water dripping indoors or simply because it’s been a while. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. Typical jobs include air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did and condensate leaking into the room, across VRF systems, air-to-air heat pumps and multi-split systems.
We plan the trip to Hitchambury and can service more than one unit in one visit.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Church of St Mary, listed at grade I, is one of roughly 22 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Hitchambury’s centre.

Questions from Hitchambury
Is Hitchambury within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Does my air con in Hitchambury need a yearly service?
Once a year suits most home 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.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
The rules are based on tCO2e, which comes from the refrigerant charge and its GWP. From 5 to under 50 tCO2e, leak checks are required at least every 12 months, and from 50 to under 500 tCO2e every 6 months. Hermetically sealed systems under 10 tCO2e are exempt.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will advise on what to do next.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
How we price air conditioning servicing
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re unsure, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.
What we need to know
Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
Some jobs can be priced from photos, 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.
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Clean the filters between services, as the manual describes
- Hold on to every service report
- Shut doors to the room so the system isn’t cooling the whole house
The best time to book the next service is now, while you remember. Spring suits systems used mainly for cooling, and autumn suits those used for heating although we service all year round.
Keep the area around the outdoor unit clear. Plants, bins and stored items piled around it get in the way of the air it needs and should be moved away.

What else we do in Hitchambury
How it works
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. On site, it takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to Hitchambury.
- We book a time that suits you and confirm the price.
- Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
- We clean the filters, coils and fans and clear the condensate drain.
- The electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with a leak check where required.
- A final test run follows, then you get the service record.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them

Advice
When to call us in Hitchambury
Electrical terminals can work loose as the system heats, cools and vibrates. A loose connection can cause faults that come and go, so the engineer checks them as part of the service.
It’s time to call us if you are dealing with:
- Error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit
- Noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
Offices and shops near Taplow station can have their systems serviced without closing.
