Air conditioning servicing in St Ives
For an annual service, the price is £95–£150 + VAT, and we confirm the figure before we book you in. Larger systems with several indoor units, ducted units or commercial plant are priced on their details. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. If you’re dealing with drips or damp patches below an indoor unit and a unit showing a fault code, we can sort it out.
For a home in or near St Ives, a service once a year suits most systems, ideally in spring before the warm weather.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
What happens on the day
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it doesn’t catch you out. For businesses, we can usually work room by room or zone by zone. On site, it takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Visits to St Ives are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start with the basics, such as the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- The engineer switches the system on and checks how it behaves before taking anything apart.
- Filters, coils and the condensate drain are cleaned and cleared.
- Electrical connections, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with an F-gas leak check where the system requires one.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
Before we arrive
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

Advice
Managing agents and facilities teams in St Ives
Facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings book us too in St Ives and across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building around the people who use them.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
FAQs for St Ives
Can you do air conditioning servicing in St Ives?
We do: St Ives falls inside our working area. Just call 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few details.
How often do you service systems in St Ives?
Normally 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 the manufacturer’s warranty require regular servicing?
Each manufacturer sets its own terms. Some may have servicing conditions attached, so check the terms for your system. We can explain the terms, and each visit is recorded.
Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?
We do. A contract sets out how often we visit and what each visit covers, at a fixed price agreed with your quote. It takes the scheduling off your plate.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?
The service checks how the refrigerant circuit is performing, but does not include adding gas. If gas has been lost, the right step is a leak search and repair, then a regas with a fixed price for each step.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Every visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
What a service looks like in St Ives
About 86% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day.
Spring is a good time for a service, before the system is needed for cooling. Site managers at schools like St Ives Primary & Nursery School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday.

Honest limits
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:

- A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
- Rooms that gain heat faster than any unit could cope with
