Why deal with it now?
Smells from an indoor unit tend to come back each time it runs. The cure is cleaning where the dirt has built up instead of covering it up. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but your price depends on the job in front of us. For a fixed-price quote, phone 07833 053749 or send an email, and we’ll explain what it covers.

About our air conditioning servicing in Shipley
An annual service is £95–£150 + VAT, confirmed before the visit is booked. Multi-split, ducted and commercial systems are priced once we know what’s there. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. If you’re dealing with a service that’s overdue and water dripping from the indoor unit, we can sort it out.
Around Shipley, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, where seeds and leaves collect on the coil. A yearly service clears them.
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.

What we do, step by step
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Shipley.
- You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- Each indoor unit has its covers lifted so the filters, coil and tray can be cleaned.
- The outdoor unit is cleaned and checked, and debris cleared from around it.

- Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.

From a single flat to a whole estate, you get the same standard: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
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’re happy to deal with whoever it is.

Shipley questions
How often should air conditioning in Shipley be serviced?
For most homes, once a year. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.
Is Shipley within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Every visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Does my air conditioning need an F-gas leak check?
It depends on the system’s tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e). 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 holding less than 10 tCO2e don’t need them.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. A fixed-price quote follows.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
Yes, with visits planned to suit how hard the system works. We agree the cost up front, and each visit is recorded.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
When to call us in Shipley
Condensate has to drain away from every indoor unit. Debris in the tray or a sticky pump can stop it draining and the result is drips from the indoor unit.
Common reasons people call us include:
- Error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- Leak check records that need bringing up to date
A service once a year suits most home systems, and some business systems need more.
