About our air conditioning servicing in St Leonards
A service is not the same as a regas. Refrigerant runs in a sealed circuit and shouldn’t need adding to. If the performance checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it rather than just topping up. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, VRF systems and ducted systems, and people most often call us about a unit showing a fault code and weaker cooling than last year.
We clean the filters and coils, clear the drain and check the outdoor unit and electrics on a service in St Leonards, before testing the system and checking for refrigerant leaks.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Questions from St Leonards
How often should air conditioning in St Leonards be serviced?
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.
Do you cover St Leonards for air conditioning servicing?
Yes, St Leonards is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
How long does an air conditioning service take?
It takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Access and the number of units decide most of the time, and we will give you an idea when we book.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
What’s included in an air conditioning service?
The service covers the indoor units and the outdoor unit: filters, coils, drains and fans, then the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing. A service record follows.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before you book and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: agree the plan on site, put the dust sheets down, do the work, test what we’ve done and talk you through it. The visit itself takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Pictures of the space, the fuse board and the outside wall are a good start for a job in St Leonards.

What the work involves, system by system
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
tCO2e is the refrigerant charge in kg multiplied by its global warming potential, divided by 1,000. As an example, 3 kg of R32 comes to about 2.0 tCO2e, while 3 kg of R410A is about 6.3 tCO2e. We check the label on your system and tell you where it sits.
Maintenance contracts
The visit frequency is set around the system and how it’s used so it fits your site.

Why it’s worth doing now in St Leonards
When air can’t get through the unit easily, the system has to run longer to get there. A service puts that right with a clean, and it means the system is not straining through the summer. In a town like St Leonards, the first hot week of the year is when most people call, so booking early helps.
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all play a part.
