About our air conditioning servicing in Kent Street
An air conditioning service is a check and clean of the whole system, indoor and outdoor units together. Filters and coils are cleaned, the drain is cleared, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are all checked. We service systems in Kent Street and across West Sussex, whatever the make. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, ceiling cassettes and multi-split systems, and common reasons people get in touch are drips or damp patches below an indoor unit and frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes.
For a home in or near Kent Street, a service once a year suits most systems, best done before summer.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

How it works
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. For a place like Kent Street, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We ask about the system: the make, the number of indoor units and any problems you’ve noticed.
- We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
- We clean the filters and coils and make sure the condensate drains away.
- Next come the terminals, the controller and the refrigerant side, with a leak check if the system’s size makes one a legal duty.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

What owners can safely do
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone us on 07833 053749.
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
FAQs for Kent Street
Does my air con in Kent Street 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.
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Kent Street?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Kent Street is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
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. 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.
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.
Do I need a service to keep the manufacturer’s warranty?
That is down to your manufacturer’s terms, which vary. Where servicing is a condition, keeping an annual service record helps show the terms were followed and we will help you check what applies.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Different systems, different jobs
Maintenance contracts
For businesses, a contract keeps servicing and any required leak checks on schedule and each visit is recorded.
Indoor and outdoor coils
Outside, the coil gives off or picks up heat. Leaves, dirt and debris clog the fins, so we clean it and clear the area around the unit.
Air conditioning servicing around Kent Street
Census 2021 figures found about 74% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs. About 5 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Kent Street, Potts Farmhouse (grade II) among them. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building.
Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling. Clean filters and coils help a system cool better and use less electricity.

Pricing air conditioning servicing in Kent Street
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but every job is priced on its own. The quote depends on:
- The pipe route between the units
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- The address and the type of property
- Your installation or service records
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
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.
