Air conditioning servicing for Lowford

Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Lowford

A manufacturer’s warranty can come with conditions, and regular servicing may be one of them. The terms differ from brand to brand, so it’s worth reading yours and we are happy to go through them with you. Our service record shows the work was done. The work covers multi-split systems, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems, and the jobs we see most are frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes and leak check records that need bringing up to date.

Outdoor units around Lowford tend to be close to gardens and hedges, which can clog the outdoor coil. Cleaning it is part of every service.

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.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.

Running several properties is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

Honest limits

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • A system that is too small for the room it serves
  • Installation faults that need reworking
  • Heat gains the system was never sized for

Not sure which it is? You can ring us on 07833 053749 or send an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What the work covers

  • Multi-split systems
  • Air-to-air heat pumps
  • Ducted systems
  • Ceiling cassettes
  • VRF systems
  • Wall-mounted split systems

Keeping the system healthy

Looking after it is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Report drips, smells or noises early
  • Hold on to every service report
  • Clear leaves and debris from around the outdoor unit

Once we have gone, use the system as normal and see how it performs. If anything seems off, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll talk it through.

An annual service is the simplest routine to keep to, and more often if the system works hard or the rules require it.

What we do, step by step

Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. In a place like Lowford, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.

  1. We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
  2. The indoor units are opened up and the filters, coils and drain trays cleaned.
  3. The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.
  4. We test the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing.
  5. Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.

How to prepare

  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

What a service looks like in Lowford

At about 2 miles from the coast, Lowford is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air settles on outdoor coils, so coastal systems benefit from regular servicing. In the mile around Lowford’s centre, 2 conservation areas have been designated. The Thatched Cottage, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 4 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Lowford’s centre. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. About 32% of homes across Lowford and its surrounding area have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and about 69% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs.

Questions from Lowford

Will you come out to Lowford?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.

Does my air con in Lowford need a yearly service?

A yearly visit is right for most households. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.

Why use an F-Gas certified company?

For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone and we will gladly show you ours.

Do you work on all makes?

Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.

How do you keep the place clean during the work?

We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Lowford and across Hampshire. Let us know who the records should go to.

Can I do any of the installation myself?

Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.

From one of our customers

“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.”
