How we handle air conditioning servicing in Monkey Street
Servicing does not mean topping up refrigerant. Refrigerant runs in a sealed circuit and shouldn’t need adding to. Where the checks suggest gas has been lost, the right step is to find the leak, and we’ll set out how. If the problem is noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit and a unit showing a fault code, we can help.
We plan the trip to Monkey Street and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

How the visit works
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. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to Monkey Street.
- We start with the basics, such as the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- 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.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
Getting a quote
Every quote starts with a look at the job, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your photos and details. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:
- Keep to an annual service, or more often if needed
- Call about new noises or smells rather than waiting
- File each service record with the manufacturer’s documents
After the service, you get a record of what was done, listing the work, the checks and any recommendations. Keep it with the manufacturer’s paperwork so the service history is in one place.
Book a service at least once a year, and more often if the system works hard or the rules require it.
Keeping systems in Monkey Street running
Historic England lists about 4 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Monkey Street, including Filde Hall (grade II). Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first. VOA council tax data show about 33% of homes in the Monkey Street area were built in 2000 or later, and Census 2021 figures found about 86% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day.
Dust on the filters and coil makes the system work harder for the same result.

Monkey Street questions
Do you cover smaller places like Monkey Street?
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.
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Monkey Street?
We do: Monkey Street falls inside our working area. To start, ring 07833 053749 or email us with a few pictures.
Will servicing keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?
The warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms. Read the conditions for your brand, as they may include servicing and file every service record.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and explain why.
How long will the engineer be here for the service?
The visit takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. If we find something that needs repairing, we explain it and price it before doing anything else, and you can call us on 07833 053749 or send an email to book.
Are you F-Gas certified?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Monkey Street
Condensate has to drain away from every indoor unit. Sludge and debris can block the tray, the pipe or the pump, and the water then has nowhere to go but out of the unit.
Common reasons people call us are:
- New noises from the indoor or outdoor unit
- Leak check records that need bringing up to date
- Condensate leaking into the room
Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more.
What your quote should include
- How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
How we price air conditioning servicing
You will get a fixed price before any work starts. It’s based on:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Ask for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: 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. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
