Air conditioning servicing in Lower Swanwick
People in Lower Swanwick book a service for all sorts of reasons: a musty smell, weak cooling, water dripping indoors or simply because it’s been a while. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. Common call-outs are for a musty or damp smell when the unit starts and a unit showing a fault code, across air-to-air heat pumps, wall-mounted split systems and VRF systems.
Around Lower Swanwick, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly service clears them.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. On site, it takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Somewhere like Lower Swanwick, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that is been bothering you.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
- Tell us about parking and loading
How to get a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from photos and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.

When to call us in Lower Swanwick
How often a system needs servicing depends partly on how hard it works. Heat pumps used for winter heating and units in busy offices, shops or kitchens get through a lot of air, and they benefit from regular attention.
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Systems that haven’t been serviced for a while
- Weaker cooling than last year
- F-gas leak checks falling due
Schools such as Bursledon Church of England Infant School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty.

FAQs for Lower Swanwick
How often do you service systems in Lower Swanwick?
Once a year suits most home systems. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Lower Swanwick?
It can, as Lower Swanwick is within about 2 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. Regular servicing, with the outdoor coil cleaned and checked, helps a coastal system last.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for problems that can’t wait for a planned visit. Ring 07833 053749 any time and explain the problem.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your photos and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
Keeping systems in Lower Swanwick running
Lower Swanwick is within about 2 miles of the coast. Salt air settles on outdoor coils, so coastal systems benefit from regular servicing. About 32% of homes in and around Lower Swanwick have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and Census 2021 figures found about 69% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs. The Old Bursledon Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Lower Swanwick, within about a third of a mile. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Lower Swanwick and it takes in 3 conservation areas. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 21 within half a mile of the centre, such as Brick Kiln (grade II*). Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we’ll flag it if a replacement is needed.
For an office near Bursledon station, servicing can be booked before or after working hours.
