Air conditioning servicing in South Bermondsey, done properly
We’re asked to service systems for many different reasons: smells at start-up, a unit that struggles on hot days, drips from the indoor unit, or a service that’s overdue. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. If the problem is no service record for the last year or more and systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check, we can help.
Commercial systems in a London area like South Bermondsey may need F-gas leak checks as well as a service, depending on how much refrigerant it holds. The check is recorded, with the next date noted.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

What we do, step by step
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. For a job in South Bermondsey, tell us about parking, permits and access to the building when you get in touch.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that is been bothering you.
- The engineer switches the system on and checks how it behaves before taking anything apart.
- Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
- 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
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Your questions about air conditioning servicing in South Bermondsey
How often do you service systems in South Bermondsey?
A yearly visit is right for most households. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
What’s the best way to get a price for air conditioning servicing in South Bermondsey?
The easiest way is to call us on 07833 053749 or send an email with a few details and photos. Simple jobs can be priced from pictures; otherwise we arrange a site survey and then give you a fixed-price quote.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like water coming from a unit or a critical room overheating, call our 24/7 line and we will agree what happens next.
Are you F-Gas certified?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Is an F-gas leak check a legal requirement for my system?
Only if the system is at or above the threshold of 5 tCO2e. Plenty of small splits sit under it, as 3 kg of R32 works out at about 2.0 tCO2e. We read the charge from the label and work it out for you.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Leave space around the outdoor unit for air to flow
- Make sure the condensate outlet can drain
- Keep the filters clean between visits
Run the system for a while after the visit and check it feels right. If you notice anything unusual, call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will talk it through.
Give the outdoor unit room to breathe. Plants, bins and stored items piled around it get in the way of the air it needs and should be moved away.
What we’re called out for in South Bermondsey
How often a system needs servicing depends partly on how hard it works. A system used for heating as well as cooling, or one in a busy workplace, sees far more running hours, and they benefit from regular attention.
It’s time to call us if you’re dealing with:
- Smells coming from the indoor unit
- Weaker cooling than last year
- Systems that haven’t been serviced for a while
If you run premises near South Bermondsey station, ask about servicing several units in one visit.
What to look for in a quote

Different systems, different jobs
Indoor and outdoor coils
Outside, the coil gives off or picks up heat. It collects garden debris and dirt and we clean it and make sure the air can flow.
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
The law requires leak checks once a system reaches 5 tCO2e, at least yearly up to 50 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 to under 500 tCO2e. Hermetically sealed equipment holding less than 10 tCO2e does not need them.
