About 16 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Smith's Green, Moat Cottage (grade II*) among them. If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit.

Air conditioning servicing in Smith's Green
Many manufacturers attach conditions to their warranties, and some of those may include regular servicing. The terms differ from brand to brand, so it’s worth reading yours, and we can explain what yours says. Our service record shows the work was done. Typical jobs include iced-up coils or pipework and a system that struggles to cool on warm days, across ceiling cassettes, VRF systems and ducted systems.
We plan the trip to Smith's Green and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

Common problems we fix in Smith's Green
Dust settles on the filters every time the unit is on. Clogged filters choke the airflow and the unit has to work harder to reach the set temperature.
These are the situations we see most often:
- Humming, rattling or squealing from the system
- A service that’s overdue
- A unit showing a fault code
Booking before the first hot spell means the system is ready when you need it.

- How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
Common questions in Smith's Green
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Smith's Green?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Smith's Green is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
How often do you service systems in Smith's Green?
Once a year suits most home systems. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
Will you regas my air conditioning on a service?
A service doesn’t include adding refrigerant. If a system has lost refrigerant, it has leaked from somewhere. We check the refrigerant performance, and if we suspect a leak we explain how it can be found and repaired.
How quickly will you reply?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Looking after your system
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:
- Keep the filters clean between visits
- Don’t wait for a small drip to become a leak
- Know your manufacturer’s servicing conditions
When we finish, we leave a record of the visit, with the checks carried out and anything we’d recommend. Keep it with the manufacturer’s paperwork so the service history is in one place.
Check that the condensate pipe outside can still drain. If the outlet is blocked, the water has to go somewhere, and that’s usually back towards the indoor unit.
How it works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. A note on how to find the property and where to park makes a visit to Smith's Green easier.
- 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.
- Outside, the coil is cleaned, the fan checked and the area cleared.
- Readings are taken on the electrics and refrigerant circuit, and the controls are tried in each mode.
- Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your photos and details. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
