About our air conditioning servicing in Souldern
Servicing does not mean topping up refrigerant. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that’s short of gas has a leak somewhere. Where the checks suggest gas has been lost, the right step is to find the leak, and we’ll set out how. If the problem is a unit showing a fault code and ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit, we can help.
For a home in or near Souldern, a service once a year suits most systems, best done before summer.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and 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.

Air conditioning servicing around Souldern
Souldern’s centre falls inside the Souldern Conservation Area. Church of St Mary, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 27 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Souldern’s centre. Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first. Census 2021 figures found about 77% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit.
Water dripping from the indoor unit often traces back to a drain that needs clearing. If you cannot remember the last service, it’s probably due.

What happens on the day
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Souldern can be planned properly.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that’s been bothering you.
- The engineer switches the system on and checks how it behaves before taking anything apart.
- Dust and grime come off the filters and coils, and the drain is flushed so water runs away properly.
- Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
- A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

FAQs for Souldern
Do you cover Souldern for air conditioning servicing?
Yes, Souldern is within the area we cover. Just phone us on 07833 053749 or email us with a few details.
Does my air con in Souldern need a yearly service?
A yearly visit is right for most households. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. 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.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. Ask to see proof before you book anyone, and we are happy to show ours.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
What affects the quote in Souldern
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- The number of rooms, units or zones
One room or a whole building, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. The price is fixed before work begins, with VAT shown clearly.
Asking for a quote
Good photos often save a visit. Try to include:
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Safe owner checks
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Owner care supports servicing; it does not replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
What a customer said
“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.”
