About our air conditioning servicing in Stockwell
Every hour, an indoor unit draws the room’s air through its filter and over its coil again and again. Whatever is in the air, from dust to pet hair, collects on the filter and coil. A service clears it away, letting air pass through the unit properly and the condensate drain away. We’re often asked to deal with systems that haven’t been serviced for a while and a musty or damp smell when the unit starts, across wall-mounted split systems, air-to-air heat pumps and ceiling cassettes.
For a flat or office in Stockwell, tell us where the outdoor unit is and how we reach it, so let us know how to get to it. Managed buildings may need the visit booked through the agent.
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.

FAQs for Stockwell
How often should air conditioning in Stockwell be serviced?
Typically once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.
Is Stockwell in your area for air conditioning servicing?
We do: Stockwell falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
How quickly will you reply?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns that cannot wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
Why act early in Stockwell
Smells from an indoor unit tend to come back each time it runs. The cure is cleaning where the dirt has built up instead of covering it up. Planning ahead in Stockwell means you choose the date, not the weather.
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we’ll explain each part.

What else we do in Stockwell
What owners can safely do
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
What happens on the day
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. Send us a few phone photos and we can often price a straightforward job in Stockwell before visiting.
- A date is fixed and the service price confirmed in advance.
- Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
- Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
- We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
- We run the system again and leave you a service record.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
Ask for a quote
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

Fans and electrics
We look at the wiring and terminals for anything loose or discoloured. A loose terminal can be the cause of an intermittent fault and is easily put right.
Maintenance contracts
The visit frequency is set around the system and how it’s used, rather than a one-size plan.
