Air Conditioning Servicing in Sompting
Air conditioning servicing across Sompting and nearby, from the first look to the final check and a fixed price agreed before we start.
- Humming, rattling or squealing from the system
- A service that is overdue
- Warning lights on the indoor unit
Why deal with it now?
Faults found on a service can often be put right before they cause a breakdown. Left alone, the same fault tends to show itself when you most need the system. A system that is left with a fault, or without a service, typically costs more to run.
Several rooms, units or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed price.

Air conditioning servicing in Sompting, done properly
Servicing is also a chance to spot faults early. The engineer checks fans, pipe insulation, controls and electrical connections, then explains anything that looks like it could cause a problem later. If the problem is iced-up coils or pipework and warning lights on the indoor unit, we can sort it out.
For most homes near Sompting, a service once a year keeps the system efficient and the filters clean, and regular servicing can be a condition of some manufacturers’ warranties.
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.

How the visit works
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. On site, the work takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. In a place like Sompting, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.
- When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
- We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
- Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and cleared.
- The wiring, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, plus a leak check on systems large enough to need one.
- You get a service record, with anything that needs attention explained.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
Getting a price
Every quote shows the VAT clearly, with the rate that applies to your job. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. To get one, phone 07833 053749 or send an email.

How we price air conditioning servicing
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The condition of any existing system
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
- How many units are involved
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you are unsure, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email for straight advice and a fixed price.
Asking for a quote
Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. After that, we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.
Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Sompting
How often do you service systems in Sompting?
Usually once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Sompting?
It can, as Sompting is within about 2 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. Regular servicing, with the outdoor coil cleaned and checked, helps a coastal system last.
How long will the engineer be here for the service?
A typical service takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Ducted units in ceiling voids and outdoor units in awkward places can add time, and we will tell you in advance.
Can I have a maintenance contract for my air conditioning?
We do. A contract sets out how often we visit and what each visit covers with the price fixed when you accept the quote. It suits anyone who would rather not track service dates.
Which brands do you work with?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.
Do you top up refrigerant during a service?
A service does not include adding refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that’s short of gas has a leak. We check the refrigerant performance, and if we suspect a leak we explain how it can be found and repaired.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, 24/7. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Servicing in Sompting: local notes
Sompting lies within about 2 miles of the sea. A yearly service matters more near the coast, where salt speeds up corrosion on coils and fixings. Valuation Office Agency council tax records date about 51% of homes across Sompting and its surrounding area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and about 70% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book. Historic England lists about 5 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Sompting, including Yew Tree House (grade II). We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.
Schools such as Sompting Village Primary School can book servicing for half term or the summer break, when rooms are empty. If you run premises near Lancing station, ask about servicing several units in one visit.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple habits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Book the service at least once a year
- Rinse the indoor unit filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
- Keep doors and windows closed while the system is cooling
After the service, you get a record of what was done, with the checks carried out and anything we’d recommend. File it with the system’s manual and warranty documents so you have the whole history together.
Check that the condensate pipe outside can still drain. A pipe that is been knocked or covered can back up into the indoor unit.
A customer’s words
“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.”
