Air conditioning servicing in Totford, done properly
Some systems need F-gas leak checks by law, and some don’t. Under the GOV.UK rules, 5 to under 50 tCO2e means a leak check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e means every 6 months. We tell you which band your system falls into and carry out the checks it needs. Typical jobs include drips or damp patches below an indoor unit and noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit, across ducted systems, VRF systems and air-to-air heat pumps.
For a home in or near Totford, a service once a year suits most systems, best done before summer.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. Keep it with the system’s paperwork, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Signs you need air conditioning servicing in Totford
Systems that run most of the year collect dirt faster than ones used on a few hot days. Heat pumps used for winter heating and units in busy offices, shops or kitchens get through a lot of air, and they benefit from regular attention.
It’s time to call us if you’re dealing with:
- A unit showing a fault code
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- Drips or damp patches below an indoor unit
A service once a year suits most home systems, and some business systems need more.
What to look for in a quote
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
- Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job

What affects the cost of air conditioning servicing
You will get a fixed price before any work starts. It’s based on:
- The condition of any existing system
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The brand, model and parts involved
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
- The address and the type of property
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
Quotes don’t take long. Call or email with a few details and we’ll come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.

System by system
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
The engineer looks at how well the system is moving heat, using temperatures and pressures to see whether it’s working as it should. If the readings suggest gas has been lost, we explain what that means.
Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units
Ceiling cassettes are common in offices, shops and restaurants. The grille drops down for the filters, and the drain and pump are checked inside.
How it works
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. From there, the work takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. If a lane or gateway near Totford is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- We book a time that suits you and confirm the price.
- We switch the system on and check it in operation.
- Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
- We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
- It’s run once more to confirm all is well, and the record is left with you.
Getting ready for the visit
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Totford
Is Totford in your area for air conditioning servicing?
We do: Totford falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Does my air con in Totford need a yearly service?
Normally 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.
Are you F-Gas certified?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
Do you top up refrigerant during a service?
We check refrigerant performance on every service, but adding gas is separate work. If gas has been lost, the right step is a leak search and repair, then a regas, priced before we start.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
Who is responsible for 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 will work out which band applies to yours.
Do you offer emergency call-outs?
Yes, day and night. When you call, tell us the make, what’s happening and any error code, and we will talk you through the next steps.

“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.”
