Kemptown air conditioning servicing
Air conditioning servicing in and around Kemptown, from the first look to the final check with the price fixed before work begins.
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check
- An unpleasant odour when the system runs
When it’s something else
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Poor original installation, such as drains without a proper fall
- Cooling capacity that doesn’t match the space
- A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

Air conditioning servicing in Kemptown, done properly
Servicing covers both halves of the system: the indoor units in the rooms and the outdoor unit outside. Filters and coils are cleaned, the drain is cleared, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are all checked. We carry out air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Kemptown and the rest of Brighton and Hove, whatever the make. We are often asked to deal with a unit showing a fault code and an unpleasant odour when the system runs, across wall-mounted split systems, air-to-air heat pumps and ceiling cassettes.
In a place like Kemptown, the outdoor unit often sits near a garden, hedge or trees, so the outdoor coil can clog with leaves and seeds. Cleaning it is part of every service.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We’ll explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Questions from Kemptown
Is Kemptown within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Does being near the sea make a difference to air conditioning servicing in Kemptown?
It can. Kemptown is within about 1 mile of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. Regular servicing, with the outdoor coil cleaned and checked, helps a coastal system last.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Do you top up refrigerant during a service?
Refrigerant is only added after the leak that caused the loss has been dealt with. Adding gas without a repair just lets it leak away again and that is money wasted.
Servicing in Kemptown: local notes
The coast is only about 1 mile from Kemptown. Coastal outdoor units are worth checking for corrosion at every service. The middle of Kemptown is part of the East Cliff Conservation Area. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Kemptown and it takes in 4 conservation areas. About 133 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Kemptown, Arundel House (grade I) among them. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that. About 41% of homes in Kemptown and the neighbourhoods around it were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 68% of households live in flats, according to the 2021 Census. If you live in a flat, mention any roof hatch, balcony or managing agent we’ll need to get to the outdoor unit.
Dust on the filters and coil makes the system work harder for the same result. Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more.

Fixed-price quotes for air conditioning servicing in Kemptown
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- What kind of system it is
- How easy the units are to reach
- The condition of any existing system
One room or a whole building, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the equipment. The price is fixed before we start, and the quote sets out the VAT.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The make and model of the system, from the label
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
Rented and managed buildings
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
How the visit works
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Photos of the room and the outside wall help us plan a job near Kemptown.
- A date is fixed and the service price confirmed in advance.
- We switch the system on and check it in operation.
- Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
- Electrical and refrigerant checks follow, including a leak check if the rules require one.
- We run the system again and leave you a service record.
Preparing for the visit
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them

“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.”
