Air conditioning servicing in Wash Common
A service is as much a check-up as a clean. The engineer checks fans, pipe insulation, controls and electrical connections, and tells you about anything that looks like it’s heading for trouble. The work covers VRF systems, air-to-air heat pumps and ducted systems, and common reasons people get in touch are a service that’s overdue and drips or damp patches below an indoor unit.
Outdoor units around Wash Common tend to be close to gardens and hedges, so the outdoor coil can clog with leaves and seeds. Cleaning it is part of every service.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

What happens if it’s left?
Drainage problems tend to grow. A small drip can turn into water on the wall, the floor or the furniture, so it’s worth clearing before that happens. Getting the date in early helps for a job in a place like Wash Common.
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.

Wash Common: your questions answered
Does my air con in Wash Common need a yearly service?
For most homes, once a year. Check your manufacturer’s warranty terms too, as some of them make regular servicing a condition.
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Wash Common?
Yes. Wash Common is one of the places we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a system failing in a server room or water leaking from a unit, ring our 24/7 line and we will tell you what to do first.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before booking, and we are happy to show ours.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Wash Common and across West Berkshire. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- A refrigerant leak, which needs finding and repairing, not topping up
- Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
- Rooms that gain heat faster than any unit could cope with
If you’re not sure, just call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.

How the visit works
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it doesn’t catch you out. For businesses, we can normally work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Seeing the property in pictures first helps us plan the trip to Wash Common.
- 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.
- Electrical and refrigerant checks follow, including a leak check if the rules require one.
- We run the system again and leave you a service record.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property

What else we do in Wash Common
For landlords and property managers
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is and we are happy to deal with whoever it is.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed-price quote.

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.”
