Air conditioning servicing in Murston
We are asked to service systems for many different reasons: smells at start-up, a unit that struggles on hot days, drips from the indoor unit, or a service that’s overdue. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. Common call-outs are for noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit and air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did, across VRF systems, wall-mounted split systems and air-to-air heat pumps.
For most homes near Murston, a service once a year keeps the system efficient and the filters clean, and some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Rented and managed buildings
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
Running several properties is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
What air conditioning servicing can’t fix
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Parts that have failed and need replacing
- Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
- Heat gains the system was never sized for
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What the work covers
- Ducted systems
- Multi-split systems
- Air-to-air heat pumps
- Wall-mounted split systems
- VRF systems
- Ceiling cassettes
What we do, step by step
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 around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Everything the job in Murston needs is worked out beforehand.
- We book a time that suits you and confirm the price.
- We switch the system on and check it in operation.
- Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
- The electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with a leak check where required.
- It’s run once more to confirm all is well, and the record is left with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them

Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Murston
Does my air con in Murston need a yearly service?
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.
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Murston?
It can, as Murston is within about 2 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. A yearly service that rinses and checks the outdoor coil matters more near the sea.
How long does an air conditioning service take?
It takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. The number of indoor units and how easy they are to reach make the biggest difference so we’ll confirm the time when we book.
Do you work in Murston?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Murston.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need and the fixed price is built on it.
Does the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?
Each manufacturer sets its own terms. Some warranties may include conditions about regular servicing so it’s worth reading yours. We can explain the terms, and each visit is recorded.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Keeping systems in Murston running
Murston lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Near the sea, rinsing and checking the outdoor coil for corrosion is an important part of every service. Church of St Michael, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 4 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Murston’s centre. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building. About 42% of homes in Murston and the neighbourhoods around it date from 1945 to 1972, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 44% of households live in terraced houses, according to Census 2021 figures. With a terrace, access to the rear for the outdoor unit is the main thing to tell us.
For an office near Sittingbourne station, servicing can be booked before or after working hours. If you look after a school such as Sunny Bank Primary School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

What affects the cost of air conditioning servicing
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- What electrical work the job needs
- What kind of system it is
- The brand, model and parts involved
No two properties are the same, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
Quotes do not take long. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
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.”
