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 a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Let us know who controls access to the building in Putney Vale, as that saves time on the day.
- It begins with a few questions about the make, the rooms served and any symptoms.
- Inside, the filters, coil and drain tray of each indoor unit are cleaned.
- The outdoor unit gets its own clean, with leaves and debris cleared away.
- Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are tested.
- If a repair is needed, you hear why and what it costs before anything is done.
Before we arrive
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Advice
Air conditioning servicing in Putney Vale
For homes with one or two units and businesses with many, we can set up a maintenance contract. The visits, the scope and the cost are fixed with your quote, and the servicing happens on schedule. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, multi-split systems and VRF systems, and common reasons people get in touch are an unpleasant odour when the system runs and ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit.
In Putney Vale, a business system may need a leak check by law as well as a service, depending on its refrigerant charge. We record the checks and tell you when the next one is due.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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 are happy to deal with whoever it is.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the property, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed-price quote.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different answer:
- Lost refrigerant, where the fix is a leak repair
- A system that is too small for the room it serves
- Rooms that gain heat faster than any unit could cope with

Keeping systems in Putney Vale running
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 71% of homes in Putney Vale and the neighbourhoods around it to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and about 77% of households live in flats, according to Census 2021 figures. In flats, outdoor units are often on balconies, roofs or high walls, so tell us how we reach yours. London outdoor units collect city dust and grime, so the outdoor coil gets particular attention on a service. The Kingston Vale Conservation Area is within about a third of a mile of the centre of Putney Vale. In the mile around Putney Vale’s centre, 4 conservation areas have been designated. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 3 within half a mile of the centre, such as Dorich House (grade II). Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first.
A service once a year suits most home systems, and some business systems need more. If you look after a school such as Hall School Wimbledon, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

After we have gone
So the system stays in good health:
- Clean the filters between services, as the manual describes
- Keep doors and windows closed while the system is cooling
- Make sure the condensate outlet can drain
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.
An annual service is the simplest routine to keep to with extra visits where the system runs constantly or needs more frequent leak checks.
Common questions in Putney Vale
How often do you service systems in Putney Vale?
Normally once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
How do I get a quote for air conditioning servicing in Putney Vale?
Start with a short message: the address, what you need and a picture or two. Simple jobs can be priced from photos; otherwise we arrange a site survey and then give you a fixed-price quote.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
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.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?
Yes, with visits planned to suit how hard the system works. We agree the cost up front, and each visit is recorded.
Is an F-gas leak check a legal requirement for my system?
The rules are based on tCO2e, which comes from the refrigerant charge and its GWP. 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 under 10 tCO2e are exempt.
What a customer said
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
