Air conditioning servicing in Shobley

Let and managed properties

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. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system and we are happy to deal with whoever it is.

Air conditioning servicing in Shobley

For an annual service, the price is £95–£150 + VAT, and we confirm the figure before we book you in. Larger systems with several indoor units, ducted units or commercial plant are priced on their details. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. The work covers ducted systems, wall-mounted split systems and ceiling cassettes, and common reasons people get in touch are a musty or damp smell when the unit starts and a unit showing a fault code.

Most systems around Shobley need servicing once a year, best done before summer.

Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For instance, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Questions from Shobley

Is Shobley in your area for air conditioning servicing?

Yes, Shobley is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.

Does my air con in Shobley need a yearly service?

A yearly visit is right for most households. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.

How do you keep the place clean during the work?

Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.

Do you look at the job first?

Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.

Are you F-Gas certified?

We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.

Can you set up regular servicing?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

Do I need a service to keep the manufacturer’s warranty?

The answer is in your manufacturer’s warranty conditions. If servicing is required, a regular service record is the evidence and we will help you check what applies.

Pricing air conditioning servicing in Shobley

The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
  • How far the pipework has to run, and where
  • The condition of any existing system

Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.

Helping us quote

Good photos often save a visit. Try to include:

  • The remote or wall controller showing any error
  • A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
  • The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area

Need a price for air conditioning servicing? Please ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and tell us about the job. We’ll talk you through the options and give you a fixed-price quote before anything is booked.

What air conditioning won’t do

Not every problem is solved by air conditioning servicing, and we will tell you before work begins. It doesn’t solve:

  • A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
  • Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
  • A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up

Not sure which it is? You can call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on in Shobley

  • Ceiling cassettes
  • VRF systems
  • Multi-split systems
  • Air-to-air heat pumps
  • Ducted systems
  • Wall-mounted split systems

What happens on the day

Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Shobley.

  1. It begins with a few questions about the make, the rooms served and any symptoms.
  2. Each indoor unit has its covers lifted so the filters, coil and tray can be cleaned.
  3. Outside, the coil is cleaned, the fan checked and the area cleared.
  4. Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
  5. Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.

How to prepare

  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
  • Keep pets and children away from the work area
  • Clear a path to the units and the space around them

Advice

Air conditioning servicing in Shobley: the local picture

The last census (2021) found about 84% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs. Shobley’s centre is no more than about a third of a mile from the Western Escarpment Conservation Area. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.

A service once a year suits most home systems, and some business systems need more. Schools such as Poulner Infant School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty.
