System by system
Indoor and outdoor coils
Outside, the coil gives off or picks up heat. It collects garden debris and dirt, so we clean it and clear the area around the unit.
Fans and electrics
Electrical connections are checked for tightness and signs of overheating. Loose connections can cause faults that come and go and is easily put right.
Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Long Wittenham
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 carry out air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Long Wittenham and the rest of Oxfordshire, for most leading brands. Common call-outs are for smells coming from the indoor unit and water dripping from the indoor unit, across multi-split systems, air-to-air heat pumps and VRF systems.
Around Long Wittenham, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly clean keeps the system working well.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

Why it’s worth doing now in Long Wittenham
When air cannot get through the unit easily, the system has to run longer to get there. Cleaning them is a small job, and it means the system isn’t straining through the summer. An early booking makes the visit to Long Wittenham easier to arrange.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

Fixed-price quotes for air conditioning servicing in Long Wittenham
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- The size of the job
- What state the existing equipment is in
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.
Helping us quote
Simple jobs can often be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us.
Long Wittenham: your questions answered
Do you cover Long Wittenham for air conditioning servicing?
Yes. Long Wittenham is one of the places we cover. To start, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few photos.
Will you come out to Long Wittenham?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Can I have a maintenance contract for my air conditioning?
We do, for one unit at home or many across a site. The visits, what each covers and the price are agreed with your quote, so servicing and any required leak checks stay on schedule.
Does my air conditioning need an F-gas leak check?
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 example, is about 2.0 tCO2e. We check the label and tell you whether your system needs checks and how often.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
How often does air con need a service?
We recommend an annual service and more often for systems in constant use. The manufacturer’s warranty terms may say something about servicing, so it’s worth reading them.
The process
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Long Wittenham.
- A date is fixed and the service price confirmed in advance.
- The engineer runs the system and checks how it’s performing.
- Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
- Electrical and refrigerant checks follow, including a leak check if the rules require one.
- A final test run follows, then you get the service record.
How to prepare
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
Getting a price
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: 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. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
