Need air conditioning servicing in Purfleet-on-Thames?

Safe owner checks

There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.

Do not move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.

About our air conditioning servicing in Purfleet-on-Thames

Whether a leak check is required depends on how much refrigerant the system holds and which refrigerant it is. Under the GOV.UK rules, 5 to under 50 tCO2e means a leak check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e means every 6 months. We work out where your system sits and check it accordingly. If you’re dealing with a musty or damp smell when the unit starts and systems that haven’t been serviced for a while, we can sort it out.

We book services in Purfleet-on-Thames at a time that suits you, and most single systems take an hour or two.

Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Maintenance contracts

A contract helps a business keep its servicing and F-gas checks on track and each visit is recorded.

Condensate drains and pumps

Cooling pulls moisture out of the air, and that water has to drain away. We clean the drain tray and clear the pipe so it flows properly.

What a service looks like in Purfleet-on-Thames

About 31% of homes in and around Purfleet-on-Thames have been built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the 2021 Census found about 55% of households live in flats. In flats, outdoor units are often on balconies, roofs or high walls, so tell us how we reach yours. Roughly a third of a mile or less from central Purfleet-on-Thames, you reach the Purfleet Conservation Area. Royal Hotel, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 6 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Purfleet-on-Thames’s centre. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent.

Schools such as Purfleet Primary Academy can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty. Businesses close to Purfleet station can book an early or late slot so the service does not get in the way of trade.

  2. The indoor units are opened up and the filters, coils and drain trays cleaned.
  3. Outside, the coil is cleaned, the fan checked and the area cleared.

Will you make a mess?

We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
