Common questions in Potters Bar
How often do you service systems in Potters Bar?
For most homes, once a year. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.
How do I get a quote for air conditioning servicing in Potters Bar?
Use the quote form, or email, with a description of the job. Straightforward work can be priced remotely. Bigger jobs get a survey and a written fixed price.
Do you work in Potters Bar?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Potters Bar included.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
It depends on the system’s tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e). At 5 to under 50 tCO2e, it’s at least every 12 months; at 50 to under 500 tCO2e, every 6 months. Hermetically sealed systems holding less than 10 tCO2e don’t need them.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.

System by system
Filters
A clogged filter cuts the airflow through the unit. The room takes longer to get comfortable, which is why filters are always part of the service.
Fans and electrics
Controls and remote handsets are tested in each mode to make sure the system responds properly.
Safe owner checks
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Looking after your system
So the system stays in good health:
- Report drips, smells or noises early
- Keep doors and windows closed while the system is cooling
- File each service record with the manufacturer’s documents
If we find a fault, we explain it and give you a price to put it right. Nothing extra is done without your say-so and the decision is always yours.
Book a service at least once a year, and more often if the system works hard or the rules require it.
What we do, step by step
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, do the work, check the system and talk you through it. The visit itself takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Let us know about side gates, ladders or locked areas at your property in Potters Bar.
- We book a time that suits you and confirm the price.
- Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
- Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Tell us about parking and loading
