Air conditioning servicing for Portsmouth Point

What affects the cost of air conditioning servicing

The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:

  • The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
  • Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
  • Whether we need access equipment for high-level work

Several rooms, units or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed price.

Helping us quote

To speed up the quote, send us:

  • Any previous service or F-Gas records
  • The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
  • The fuse board and where it is in the property

Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

About our air conditioning servicing in Portsmouth Point

Servicing covers both halves of the system: the indoor units in the rooms and the outdoor unit outside. Filters and coils are cleaned, the drain is cleared, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are all checked. We service systems in Portsmouth Point and across Portsmouth, for most leading brands. Typical jobs include air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did and new noises from the indoor or outdoor unit, across wall-mounted split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems.

For most homes near Portsmouth Point, a service once a year keeps the system efficient and the filters clean, and some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Air conditioning servicing around Portsmouth Point

Portsmouth Point lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Coastal outdoor units are worth checking for corrosion at every service. Central Portsmouth Point is inside the Old Portsmouth Conservation Area. There are 13 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Portsmouth Point. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 141 within half a mile of the centre, such as Cathedral Church of St Thomas (grade I). Day-to-day work on an existing system isn’t affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures show about 37% of homes in the Portsmouth Point area were built in 2000 or later, and about 80% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). Balcony, roof or high wall? Knowing where a flat’s outdoor unit is helps us bring the right access kit.

If you run premises near Portsmouth Harbour station, ask about servicing several units in one visit. For a school like St Jude's CofE Primary School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

What we do, step by step

Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Visits to a place like Portsmouth Point are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the job needs.

  1. We start with the details of the system and anything you’ve noticed.
  2. Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
  3. Outside, the coil is cleaned, the fan checked and the area cleared.
  4. Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
  5. Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.

How to prepare

  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them

How the job changes from property to property

Filters

A clogged filter cuts the airflow through the unit. That makes it harder for the system to reach the temperature you’ve set, which is why filters are always part of the service.

Condensate drains and pumps

Where water cannot drain by gravity, a condensate pump lifts it. We check the pump runs and switches as it should, because a failed pump is a common reason for drips.

Portsmouth Point questions

How often do you service systems in Portsmouth Point?

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 the coast a problem for outdoor units in Portsmouth Point?

It can. Portsmouth Point 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.

Do you work on all makes?

The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.

Why does F-Gas certification matter?

Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.

Is Portsmouth Point in your area?

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 Portsmouth Point.

Does the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?

Warranty terms are set by the manufacturer, not by us. Read the conditions for your brand, as they may include servicing and file every service record.

Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?

The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.

Rented and managed buildings

The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is, and we can work for either side.

If you look after several properties, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so the files stay tidy.

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.”
