Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Ludgershall
Will you come out to Ludgershall?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
How often do you service systems in Ludgershall?
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.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it and the fixed price is built on it.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Do you top up refrigerant during a service?
A service does not include adding refrigerant. If a system has lost refrigerant, it has leaked from somewhere. Where the checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it.
How much time does an air con service need?
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, and you can phone 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form to book.
What does an air con service involve?
A clean of the parts that collect dirt and a check of the parts that do the work. Filters, coils and drains are cleaned, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant circuit checked with leak checks where the rules require them.
About our air conditioning servicing in Ludgershall
Many manufacturers attach conditions to their warranties, and some of those may include regular servicing. The terms differ from brand to brand, so it’s worth reading yours and we’re happy to go through them with you. Our service record shows the work was done. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, multi-split systems and VRF systems, and the jobs we see most are iced-up coils or pipework and leak check records that need bringing up to date.
Most systems around Ludgershall need servicing once a year, best done before summer.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

What we’re called out for in Ludgershall
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 so builds up dirt more quickly.
The things we are asked about most include:
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
- F-gas leak checks falling due
Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first

When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by air conditioning servicing, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t put right:
- A system short of gas because of a leak
- Heat from large windows, roof spaces or equipment beyond the system’s capacity
- Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

Servicing in Ludgershall: local notes
The Ludgershall Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Ludgershall, within about a third of a mile. Historic England lists about 26 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Ludgershall, including Church of St Mary (grade I). If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit. About 85% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book.
Water dripping from the indoor unit often traces back to a drain that needs clearing.

Let and managed properties
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party, and the paperwork can go to both.
Running several properties is easier with one contractor. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
How it works
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. On the day, both are in the same hands. On site, it takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Ludgershall.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that’s been bothering you.
- The engineer switches the system on and checks how it behaves before taking anything apart.
- We clean the filters and coils and make sure the condensate drains away.
- We check the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing, and carry out a leak check where the rules call for it.
- You get a service record, with anything that needs attention explained.
Before we arrive
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working

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.”
