Questions from Skeete
Will you come out to Skeete?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Skeete?
Yes. Skeete is one of the places we cover. Just give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk with a few details.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Do I need a service to keep the manufacturer’s warranty?
Warranty terms are set by the manufacturer, not by us. Check your brand’s conditions, which may mention servicing, and keep each service record with the warranty paperwork.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and we hold it.
When is an F-gas leak check required?
The GOV.UK rules set leak checks at least every 12 months for 5 to under 50 tCO2e and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e. With leak detection fitted, the interval can be doubled, and we can tell you where your system sits.
Will you make a mess?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts before we leave.
Air conditioning servicing in Skeete
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 work out where your system sits and check it accordingly. We’re often asked to deal with a musty or damp smell when the unit starts and air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did, across ceiling cassettes, multi-split systems and VRF systems.
Several units at a home near Skeete can be serviced in one visit.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

What happens on the day
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first, so you can plan around it. For businesses, we can normally work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Skeete.
- When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
- Temperatures and pressures tell us how the refrigerant circuit is doing, alongside checks on the wiring and controls.
- We leave you a record of the service and explain anything we found.
Preparing for the visit
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Check your manufacturer’s warranty conditions before letting servicing lapse. If servicing is one of the terms, a missing service record could matter if you ever need to make a claim. We can go through the terms with you. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Why book with us
- MCS certification for heat pump work
- A site survey and a fixed-price quote
- NICEIC approved electrical contractors
- Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba and more

When to call us in Skeete
Vibration and temperature changes can loosen electrical connections over time. A loose connection can cause faults that come and go, so the engineer checks them as part of the service.
It’s time to call us if you are dealing with:
- Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- A system that struggles to cool on warm days
Site managers at schools like Stowting Church of England Primary School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
