Air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in Shanklin
Whether a leak check is required depends on how much refrigerant the system holds and which refrigerant it is. GOV.UK sets the frequency by the system’s tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e): at least every 12 months from 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e. We tell you which band your system falls into and carry out the checks it needs. If the problem is humming, rattling or squealing from the system and a musty or damp smell when the unit starts, we can sort it out.
A yearly service suits most systems around Shanklin, and regular servicing can be a condition of some manufacturers’ warranties.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. 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.

Common questions in Shanklin
Does my air con in Shanklin need a yearly service?
A yearly visit is right for most households. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
Will you come out to Shanklin?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?
Refrigerant is only added after the leak that caused the loss has been dealt with. Adding gas without a repair just lets it leak away again, so we do not recommend it.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Call the emergency line and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?
We do. With a contract, the frequency and the scope of each visit are written down, at a fixed price agreed with your quote. It takes the scheduling off your plate.
Which brands do you work with?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.

Different systems, different jobs
Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units
Ceiling cassettes are common in offices, shops and restaurants. We drop the grille to clean the filters and check the condensate pump.
Fans and electrics
Both units rely on fans to move air. The engineer listens for noise and checks for wobble or wear and cleans dust from the indoor fan.
Looking after your system
How well a system lasts depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check what your manufacturer’s warranty asks of you
- Keep to an annual service, or more often if needed
- Keep the drain outlet clear
For systems that need them, the leak check and its result go on record, and the next check is due within the period the rules set. We can book it in ahead of time.
Give the outdoor unit room to breathe. Plants, bins and stored items piled around it get in the way of the air it needs, so clear them back.
From one of our customers
“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.”
