Air conditioning servicing in Reigate, Surrey
Air conditioning servicing in and around Reigate, from a site survey or diagnosis to sign-off with the price fixed before work begins.
- Humming, rattling or squealing from the system
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- Systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check
Looking after it afterwards
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:
- Know your manufacturer’s servicing conditions
- Leave space around the outdoor unit for air to flow
- Keep the drain outlet clear
A maintenance contract takes the scheduling off your hands. The visits and the price are fixed with your quote, and we get in touch when the next one is due.
Cleaning the filters between services helps a great deal. On many wall-mounted units, the filters lift out easily, and the manual shows how.
Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Reigate
For homes with one or two units and businesses with many, we can set up a maintenance contract. We agree the visits, what each one covers and the price with your quote, so the system is looked after on a regular schedule. If the problem is error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit and systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check, we can help.
A musty smell, a drip or weaker cooling from a system in Reigate is often a sign it’s due a service, and if it finds a fault, we explain it and price the repair.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

What the work involves, system by system
Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units
Cassette units are set into the ceiling and blow air in several directions. We drop the grille to clean the filters and check the condensate pump.
Fans and electrics
Controls and remote handsets are tested in each mode to make sure the system responds properly.
How the visit works
The first job on site is protection: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation, and we clear up before we go. For a visit in Reigate, tell us how to reach the outside wall or the outdoor unit.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that’s been bothering you.
- We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
- Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
- We check the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing, and carry out a leak check where the rules call for it.
- A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a price
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

What happens if it’s left?

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we look at the job first, from photos or on a survey, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Reigate: your questions answered
Does my air con in Reigate need a yearly service?
Once a year suits most home systems. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Can I get a fixed-price quote for air conditioning servicing in Reigate?
Send us pictures of the room or the system and a few details about the property. Straightforward work can be priced remotely. Bigger jobs get a survey and a written fixed price.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
What’s included in an air conditioning service?
A full clean and check of the system. That means filters, coils and drains, plus electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance, and F-gas leak checks where they apply.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
The requirement starts at 5 tCO2e. Many small split systems fall below it: 3 kg of R32, for instance, is about 2.0 tCO2e. We check the label and tell you whether your system needs checks and how often.
How long does the visit take?
The work itself takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Larger systems naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
A customer’s words
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
