What a service looks like in The Stocks
The last census (2021) found about 81% 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. The Stocks’s centre falls inside a designated conservation area. 2 conservation areas lie within a mile of central The Stocks. On the National Heritage List, around 8 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of The Stocks; Hurst Farm Cottage (grade II) is one. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.
A service once a year suits most home systems, and some business systems need more.

How we handle air conditioning servicing in The Stocks
An air conditioning service is a check and clean of the whole system, indoor and outdoor units together. Filters and coils are cleaned, the drain is cleared, and the electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are all checked. We carry out air conditioning servicing for homes and businesses in The Stocks and the rest of Kent, for most leading brands. Typical jobs include no service record for the last year or more and a musty or damp smell when the unit starts, on air-to-air heat pumps, ceiling cassettes and ducted systems.
Around The Stocks, outdoor units sit close to gardens and greenery, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs collect on the coil. A yearly service clears them.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

After we’ve gone
Simple habits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Keep plants, bins and stored items away from the outdoor unit
- Hold on to every service report
- Keep to an annual service, or more often if needed
Once we have gone, use the system as normal and see how it performs. If anything seems off, ring 07833 053749 and we’ll talk it through.
Keep the area around the outdoor unit clear. Leaves, garden waste, bins and climbing plants all restrict the airflow, so clear them back.
Common questions in The Stocks
How often do you service systems in The Stocks?
Usually once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Will you come out to The Stocks?
Yes. The Stocks is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
Will servicing keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?
Each manufacturer sets its own terms. Some warranties may include conditions about regular servicing, so check the terms for your system. We’re happy to go through them with you, and our service record shows the work was done.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.
Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?
The service checks how the refrigerant circuit is performing, but doesn’t include adding gas. If it’s low, a leak repair comes first and the regas follows with a fixed price for each step.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Common problems we fix in The Stocks
Outdoor units sit in the weather all year. Leaves, dirt and debris collect on the coil and around the casing, which makes it harder for the unit to shed or pick up heat.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- No service record for the last year or more
- Warning lights on the indoor unit
- A system that struggles to cool on warm days
If you look after a school such as Wittersham Church of England Primary School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.
What your quote should include
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
How the visit works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Visits to The Stocks are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we take the details: brand, model if you have it, how many indoor units and anything that is been bothering you.
- We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
- Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
- We check the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing, and carry out a leak check where the rules call for it.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
How to prepare
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand

System by system
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, so this matters.
Filters
When filters fill with dust, less air moves through the system. The room takes longer to get comfortable so cleaning them is one of the first jobs.

From one of our customers
“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.”
