Air conditioning servicing for Peckham

Questions from Peckham

Is Peckham in your area for air conditioning servicing?

We do: Peckham falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.

How often should air conditioning in Peckham be serviced?

Normally once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.

When is an F-gas leak check required?

Under GOV.UK guidance, systems of 5 to under 50 tCO2e need a check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e every 6 months. With leak detection fitted, the interval can be doubled, and we can tell you where your system sits.

Do you work on all makes?

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 quickly will you reply?

We reply to enquiries the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.

What’s included in an air conditioning service?

The service covers the indoor units and the outdoor unit: the filters, coils, drain and fans, followed by the wiring, controls and refrigerant performance. A service record follows.

Do I get paperwork after the visit?

Yes. Each visit is written up, including F-Gas records for any refrigerant work. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.

Air conditioning servicing in Peckham

Servicing doesn’t mean topping up refrigerant. Refrigerant runs in a sealed circuit and shouldn’t need adding to. If the performance checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it rather than just topping up. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, VRF systems and multi-split systems, and the jobs we see most are a service that’s overdue and a system that struggles to cool on warm days.

For a flat or office in Peckham, tell us where the outdoor unit is and how we reach it, so let us know how to get to it. If the building has a managing agent, we can book in with them.

Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

How we price air conditioning servicing

You will get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:

  • Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
  • How many units are involved
  • The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units

Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.

What to send for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:

  • A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
  • A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
  • Any previous service or F-Gas records

Every quote shows the VAT clearly, with the rate that applies to your job. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. To get one, call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

Honest limits

We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Installation faults that need reworking
  • A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up
  • Rooms that gain heat faster than any unit could cope with

If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.

What we work on in Peckham

  • VRF systems
  • Air-to-air heat pumps
  • Ceiling cassettes
  • Multi-split systems
  • Ducted systems
  • Wall-mounted split systems

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 an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Managed buildings in London often need contractors booked in, and we can deal with the agent for a job in Peckham.

  1. First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
  2. Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
  3. Then the cleaning: filters, coils, fan and the drain line.
  4. We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
  5. We run the system again and leave you a service record.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them

Ask for a quote

Different systems, different jobs

Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units

Ducted units sit out of sight in ceiling voids. We need access to the unit, its filters and its drain, so let us know where the hatch is.

Maintenance contracts

For businesses, a contract keeps servicing and any required leak checks on schedule, with records kept for each visit.

A customer’s words

“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.”
