How we handle air conditioning servicing in Kettle Corner
An annual service 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. There’s no guessing at the bill afterwards. The work covers VRF systems, ducted systems and air-to-air heat pumps, and people most often call us about warning lights on the indoor unit and condensate leaking into the room.
We plan the trip to Kettle Corner and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Before you call an engineer
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrics need care too. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep plants, bins and stored items away from the outdoor unit
- Keep doors and windows closed while the system is cooling
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
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.
Check that the condensate pipe outside can still drain. A pipe that is been knocked or covered can back up into the indoor unit.

What happens on the day
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 anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Kettle Corner.
- We start with the basics, such as the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
- Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
- The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
- We leave you a record of the service and explain anything we found.
How to prepare
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it

Yes, Kettle Corner is within the area we cover. Just ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few details.
How often do you service systems in Kettle Corner?
Normally once a year for homes, more often for busy business 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.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before we start, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
How long does an air conditioning service take?
The visit takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. If we find something that needs repairing, we explain it and price it before doing anything else, so call 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form to arrange a time.
Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?
The service checks how the refrigerant circuit is performing, but doesn’t include adding gas. If gas has been lost, the right step is a leak search and repair, then a regas, priced before work begins.
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
