About our air conditioning servicing in Mountain Street
A service is as much a check-up as a clean. We listen to the fans, look at the pipework and insulation, test the controls and check the electrical connections are sound, and tells you about anything that looks like it’s heading for trouble. We’re often asked to deal with air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did and F-gas leak checks falling due, across wall-mounted split systems, air-to-air heat pumps and VRF systems.
In a village like Mountain Street, outdoor units often face hedges, fields or gardens, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly service clears them.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. Keep it with the system’s paperwork so it’s to hand next time.

How it works
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Mountain Street.
- First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
- Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
- Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
- We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
- We run the system again and leave you a service record.
Before we arrive
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property

Advice
Common problems we fix in Mountain Street
Systems that run most of the year collect dirt faster than ones used on a few hot days. 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.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Systems that haven’t been serviced for a while
- Iced-up coils or pipework
- Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check
Businesses close to Chilham station can book an early or late slot so the service doesn’t get in the way of trade.

Keeping systems in Mountain Street running
The middle of Mountain Street is part of a conservation area. Historic England lists about 49 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Mountain Street, including Church of St Mary (grade I). Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we will flag it if a replacement is needed. About 71% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned.
If you can’t remember the last service, it’s probably due.

What air conditioning won’t do

- Heat from large windows, roof spaces or equipment beyond the system’s capacity
- A unit that was undersized when it was chosen
- A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up

Mountain Street: your questions answered
How often do you service systems in Mountain Street?
A yearly visit is right for most households. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Do you cover smaller places like Mountain Street?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
Yes, for homes and businesses. We fix the schedule, the scope and the cost with your quote and the servicing happens on time.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that can’t wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly:
- Do not wait for a small drip to become a leak
- Make sure the condensate outlet can drain
- Diary the next service before this one is forgotten
For systems that need them, the leak check and its result go on record, and the next check is due within the period the rules set. We can book it in ahead of time.
Do not ignore small changes. Odd noises, smells and drips are cheaper to sort out before they grow than after a breakdown.
A customer’s words
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
