Indoor and outdoor coils
The indoor coil is where the air is cooled or warmed. Cleaning removes the dust that coats the fins and any damage is noted.

The visit frequency is set around the system and how it’s used so it fits your site.
Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Roundbush
Air conditioning pulls room air through a filter and across a cold coil many times an hour. Whatever is in the air, from dust to pet hair, collects on the filter and coil. Servicing removes it, so the system can move air properly and the drain can do its job. If you’re dealing with systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check and systems that haven’t been serviced for a while, we can help.
For a home in or near Roundbush, a service once a year suits most systems, ideally in spring before the warm weather.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

What affects the quote in Roundbush
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- The condition of any existing system
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- What electrical work the job needs
Homes, offices, shops and public buildings are all priced the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

What air conditioning servicing cannot fix
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
- Lost refrigerant, where the fix is a leak repair
- Heat gains the system was never sized for
Not sure which it is? You can phone 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Ducted systems
- Air-to-air heat pumps
- Multi-split systems
- Ceiling cassettes
- VRF systems
- Wall-mounted split systems
The process
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, check the system and explain it all to you. The visit itself takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Roundbush.
- You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- The indoor units are opened up and the filters, coils and drain trays cleaned.
- The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.
- We test the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing.
- If a repair is needed, you hear why and what it costs before anything is done.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

Common questions in Roundbush
Is Roundbush within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Roundbush?
It can. Roundbush is within about 3 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.
Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?
A regas is a separate job, done once a leak has been found and fixed. Adding gas without a repair just lets it leak away again and that’s money wasted.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, usually whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
How long will the engineer be here for the service?
As a guide, it takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Ducted units in ceiling voids and outdoor units in awkward places can add time and we will let you know before the visit.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
Yes, and the schedule is set around your system. The price is fixed with your quote and you get a record after each visit.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
What a service looks like in Roundbush
The coast is only about 3 miles from Roundbush. Near the sea, rinsing and checking the outdoor coil for corrosion is an important part of every service. The last census (2021) found about 87% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned.
Schools such as Cold Norton Primary School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty. Booking before the first hot spell means the system is ready when you need it.

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.”
