About our air conditioning servicing in Ore
For an annual service, the price is £95–£150 + VAT, confirmed before the visit is booked. Multi-split, ducted and commercial systems are priced once we know what’s there. There’s no guessing at the bill afterwards. If you’re dealing with iced-up coils or pipework and smells coming from the indoor unit, we can sort it out.
For most homes near Ore, a service once a year keeps the system efficient and the filters clean, and some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Rented and managed buildings
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system and we’re happy to deal with whoever it is.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.

Condensate drains and pumps
Where water cannot drain by gravity, a condensate pump lifts it. The pump is tested to make sure it works, because a failed pump is a common reason for drips.
Filters
The filter is the first line of defence for the indoor unit. We clean them and check for damage and we’ll say if one needs replacing.
How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, do the work, test what we’ve done and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Photos of the existing unit and its label help with repairs and servicing near Ore.
- We book a time that suits you and confirm the price.
- The engineer runs the system and checks how it’s performing.
- Then the cleaning: filters, coils, fan and the drain line.
- The electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with a leak check where required.
- We run the system again and leave you a service record.
How to prepare
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

Keeping systems in Ore running
Ore lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Coastal outdoor units are worth checking for corrosion at every service. About 41% of homes in the Ore area were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 38% of households live in terraced houses, according to the 2021 Census. On terraced streets, outdoor units are typically at the back, so tell us how we get to the rear of the property. 3 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Ore. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 9 within half a mile of the centre, such as Church of All Souls (grade II*). Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first.
Businesses close to Ore station can book an early or late slot so the service does not get in the way of trade. For a school like Sandown Primary School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

Common questions in Ore
Does my air con in Ore need a yearly service?
For most homes, once a year. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Does being near the sea make a difference to air conditioning servicing in Ore?
It can. Ore is within about 1 mile of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. A yearly service that rinses and checks the outdoor coil matters more near the sea.
How long will the engineer be here for the service?
As a guide, it takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Ducted units in ceiling voids and outdoor units in awkward places can add time, and we will tell you in advance.
What does an air con service involve?
The service covers the indoor units and the outdoor unit: the filters, coils, drain and fans, followed by the wiring, controls and refrigerant performance. You get a record of the visit.
Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?
Yes, and the schedule is set around your system. The price is fixed with your quote and you get a record after every visit.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Before you call an engineer
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
Keep a note of anything odd: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
