About our air conditioning servicing in Walmer
A service is not the same as a regas. Refrigerant runs in a sealed circuit and shouldn’t need adding to. Where the checks suggest gas has been lost, the right step is to find the leak, and we’ll set out how. Common call-outs are for an unpleasant odour when the system runs and water dripping from the indoor unit, across VRF systems, ducted systems and ceiling cassettes.
A service around Walmer is booked to suit you, and most single systems take an hour or two.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

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 where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
FAQs for Walmer
Do you cover smaller places like Walmer?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
How often should air conditioning in Walmer be serviced?
Once a year suits most home systems. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?

Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. Ask to see proof before you book anyone, and we’re happy to show ours.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always look before we price, either on a site survey or from photos and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.

Servicing in Walmer: local notes
At about 1 mile from the coast, Walmer is close enough for sea air to matter. Near the sea, rinsing and checking the outdoor coil for corrosion is an important part of every service. The centre of Walmer lies within a conservation area. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 15 within half a mile of the centre, such as Church of St Mary the Blessed Virgin (grade II*). We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.
If you run premises near Walmer station, ask about servicing several units in one visit. For a school like The Downs Church of England Primary School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

What we do, step by step
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, check the system and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Photos of the room and the outside wall help us plan a job near Walmer.
- First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
How to get a quote
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
