Air conditioning servicing in Plaxtol, done properly

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. If you are dealing with a service that’s overdue and new noises from the indoor or outdoor unit, we can sort it out.

For a home in or near Plaxtol, a service once a year suits most systems, ideally in spring before the warm weather.

Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

After we have gone

Systems last better with the right care. We suggest:

  • Call about new noises or smells rather than waiting
  • Clean the filters between services, as the manual describes
  • Close windows when the air conditioning is running

Where the system needs F-gas leak checks, the result is recorded, and the next check is due within the period the rules set. We can diary it for you.

Don’t ignore small changes. Odd noises, smells and drips are cheaper to sort out before they grow than after a breakdown.

What the work involves, system by system

Indoor and outdoor coils

Outside, the coil gives off or picks up heat. Leaves, dirt and debris clog the fins, so we clean it and clear the area around the unit.

Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units

Cassette units are set into the ceiling and blow air in several directions. The grille drops down for the filters, and the drain and pump are checked inside.

FAQs for Plaxtol

Do you cover Plaxtol for air conditioning servicing?

Yes. Plaxtol is one of the places we cover. Just call us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few details.

Will you come out to Plaxtol?

Yes. Plaxtol is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.

How soon will you get back to me?

You will hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.

What accreditations do you have?

We are an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.

Why use an F-Gas certified company?

The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.

Do you top up refrigerant during a service?

Not as a routine part of the service. If a system has lost refrigerant, it has leaked from somewhere. Where the checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.

The process

Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Plaxtol so we arrive with what’s needed.

  1. We start with the basics, such as the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
  2. We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
  3. Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
  4. The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
  5. A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children away from the work area
  • Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
  • Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Owner checks or an engineer?

Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
