How it works

Every visit follows the same order: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, check the system and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. For a job in Hornchurch, tell us about parking, permits and access to the building when you get in touch.

  1. First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that is been bothering you.
  2. On arrival, a quick performance check shows how well it’s working before the clean.
  3. Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
  4. Temperatures and pressures tell us how the refrigerant circuit is doing, alongside checks on the wiring and controls.
  5. You get a service record, with anything that needs attention explained.

Preparing for the visit

  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
  • Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas

Air conditioning servicing in Hornchurch, done properly

For an annual service, the price is £95–£150 + VAT, and we confirm the figure before we book you in. Multi-split, ducted and commercial systems are priced once we know what’s there. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. The work covers ducted systems, ceiling cassettes and VRF systems, and the jobs we see most are error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit and new noises from the indoor or outdoor unit.

Commercial systems in a London area like Hornchurch may need F-gas leak checks as well as a service, depending on its refrigerant charge. We record the checks and tell you when the next one is due.

Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

Questions from Hornchurch

How often do you service systems in Hornchurch?

For most homes, once a year. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.

Can you do air conditioning servicing in Hornchurch?

Yes, Hornchurch is within the area we cover. Just ring us on 07833 053749 with a few details.

Which accreditations do you hold?

Which brands do you work with?

The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.

How quickly will you reply?

On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.

Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?

The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.

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 work begins.

What the work involves, system by system

Indoor and outdoor coils

Coil fins are thin and easily flattened. We note any damage and tell you if it’s affecting performance.

Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units

Cassette units are set into the ceiling and blow air in several directions. We drop the grille to clean the filters and check the condensate pump.
