About our air conditioning servicing in Long Crendon
An air conditioning service is a check and clean of the whole system, indoor and outdoor units together. We clean the filters and coils, clear the condensate drain, check the electrics and controls, and look at how the refrigerant circuit is performing. We carry out air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Long Crendon and the rest of Buckinghamshire, for most leading brands. Common call-outs are for leak check records that need bringing up to date and a musty or damp smell when the unit starts, on wall-mounted split systems, air-to-air heat pumps and ceiling cassettes.
For most homes near Long Crendon, a service once a year keeps the system efficient and the filters clean, and some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing.
The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler and it’s worth keeping safe.

System by system
Condensate drains and pumps
Cooling pulls moisture out of the air, and that water has to drain away. We clean the drain tray and clear the pipe so it flows properly.
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
The law requires leak checks once a system reaches 5 tCO2e, at least yearly up to 50 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e. Hermetically sealed equipment holding less than 10 tCO2e does not need them.
Keeping the system healthy
How well a system lasts depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not wait for a small drip to become a leak
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Clear leaves and debris from around the outdoor unit
For systems that need them, the leak check and its result go on record, and the next check is due within the period the rules set. We can diary it for you.
Give the outdoor unit room to breathe. Plants, bins and stored items piled around it get in the way of the air it needs and should be moved away.
Common questions in Long Crendon
How often do you service systems in Long Crendon?
For most homes, once a year. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.
Do you cover smaller places like Long Crendon?
Yes. Long Crendon is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
Yes, and the schedule is set around your system. The price is fixed with your quote and you get a record after every visit.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from pictures and details for simple jobs. A fixed-price quote follows.
Do I need a service to keep the manufacturer’s warranty?
That’s down to your manufacturer’s terms, which vary. If servicing is required, a regular service record is the evidence, and we can explain what your brand asks for.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. Each visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
Is an F-gas leak check a legal requirement for my system?
Only if the system is at or above the threshold of 5 tCO2e. Many small split systems fall below it: 3 kg of R32, for instance, is about 2.0 tCO2e. We read the charge from the label and work it out for you.
