When it’s something else
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what air conditioning servicing will not do:
- A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
- A unit that was undersized when it was chosen
- Heat gains the system was never sized for

How we handle air conditioning servicing in Paddlesworth
Servicing covers both halves of the system: the indoor units in the rooms and the outdoor unit outside. We clean the filters and coils, clear the condensate drain, check the electrics and controls, and look at how the refrigerant circuit is performing. We service systems in Paddlesworth and across Kent, for most leading brands. If the problem is air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did and a musty or damp smell when the unit starts, we can help.
Most systems around Paddlesworth need servicing once a year, ideally in spring before the warm weather.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

What happens if it’s left?
A service can find a worn part or a loose connection while the system is still running. Left alone, the same fault tends to show itself when you most need the system. Dealing with it now is typically simpler than a breakdown later.
Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.

What happens on the day
Protection comes first: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. After that, anything electrical is made safe and we start. It takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system, and we tidy up before we leave. If a lane or gateway near Paddlesworth is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
- Each indoor unit has its covers lifted so the filters, coil and tray can be cleaned.
- The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.
- Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are tested.
- We explain what we found and price any repair before it’s done.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need

What else we do in Paddlesworth
Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Paddlesworth
Condensate has to drain away from every indoor unit. Debris in the tray or a sticky pump can stop it draining and the result is drips from the indoor unit.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
- No service record for the last year or more
- Weaker cooling than last year
Schools such as Snodland CofE Primary School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty.
Questions to ask before you book
- If the quote is based on a survey, pictures or a diagnosis
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
Paddlesworth: your questions answered
How often do you service systems in Paddlesworth?
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.
Is Paddlesworth within the area you cover?
Yes. Paddlesworth is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you work on all makes?
We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
What do you check on an air conditioning service?
We clean the filters and coils, clear the condensate drain and check the fans. We also check the electrical connections, the controls and the refrigerant performance, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?
A regas is a separate job, done once a leak has been found and fixed. Topping up without finding the leak means the gas escapes again, so we do not recommend it.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
