Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Richborough Port
A service is not the same as a regas. Refrigerant runs in a sealed circuit and shouldn’t need adding to. Where the checks suggest gas has been lost, the right step is to find the leak, and we will set out how. If the problem is frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes and leak check records that need bringing up to date, we can sort it out.
Most systems around Richborough Port need servicing once a year, best done before summer.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

When something else is needed
Air conditioning servicing cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It does not solve:
- Installation faults that need reworking
- A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
- A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Multi-split systems

What we do, step by step
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. On site, it takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. If a lane or gateway near Richborough Port is tight for a van, let us know and we’ll plan for it.
- 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.
- A final test run follows, then you get the service record.
Before we arrive
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Richborough Port
Dust settles on the filters every time the unit is on. As they fill, less air gets through, the coil can get too cold and the room takes longer to cool or warm.
Look out for these signs:
- F-gas leak checks falling due
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- Condensate leaking into the room
Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more.

Richborough Port questions
Is Richborough Port within the area you cover?
Yes. Richborough Port is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Richborough Port?
It can. Richborough Port is within about 2 miles 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.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
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.
Does my air conditioning need an F-gas leak check?
The requirement starts at 5 tCO2e. Plenty of small splits sit under it, as 3 kg of R32 works out at about 2.0 tCO2e. We read the charge from the label and work it out for you.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Servicing in Richborough Port: local notes
At about 2 miles from the coast, Richborough Port is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air settles on outdoor coils, so coastal systems benefit from regular servicing. Central Richborough Port is inside a conservation area. Day-to-day work on an existing system isn’t affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be. About 33% of homes across Richborough Port and its surrounding area have been built since 2000, according to VOA council tax data, and about 65% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned.
Schools such as Sir Roger Manwood's School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty.
