About our air conditioning servicing in West Silvertown

For homes with one or two units and businesses with many, we can set up a maintenance contract. We agree the visits, what each one covers and the price with your quote, so the system is looked after on a regular schedule. Typical jobs include weaker cooling than last year and no service record for the last year or more, across ceiling cassettes, air-to-air heat pumps and wall-mounted split systems.

In a London area like West Silvertown, many systems run hard in summer and for heating in winter, so a yearly service keeps them efficient. In London, outdoor coils collect dust, grime and leaves, and a clean coil cools better.

Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Questions from West Silvertown

Is West Silvertown in your area for air conditioning servicing?

We do: West Silvertown falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.

Does my air con in West Silvertown 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.

Do you protect the property while you work?

Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before we start, and the area is kept tidy throughout. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.

Do you work on all makes?

Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.

Do you work on commercial properties?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.

What’s included in an air conditioning service?

Both the indoor and outdoor units are checked and cleaned: the filters, coils, drain and fans, followed by the wiring, controls and refrigerant performance. A service record follows.

Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?

The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.

Servicing in West Silvertown: local notes

Valuation Office Agency council tax records show about 69% of homes in the West Silvertown area were built in 2000 or later, and the last census (2021) found about 78% of households live in flats. If you live in a flat, mention any roof hatch, balcony or managing agent we will need to get to the outdoor unit. London outdoor units collect city dust and grime, so the outdoor coil gets particular attention on a service. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 5 within half a mile of the centre, such as Warehouse K (grade II). That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent.

For a school like Britannia Village Primary School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

How it works

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 talk you through it. On site, the work takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. The more we can see beforehand, the smoother the visit to West Silvertown will be.

  1. When you book, we ask what make it is, how many rooms it serves and whether anything seems wrong.
  2. The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
  3. Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
  4. Temperatures and pressures tell us how the refrigerant circuit is doing, alongside checks on the wiring and controls.
  5. You get a service record, with anything that needs attention explained.

How to prepare

  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
  • Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
  • Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area

Rented and managed buildings

Whether it’s one property or many, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.

Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.

When to call us in West Silvertown

Vibration and temperature changes can loosen electrical connections over time. That can lead to intermittent faults which is why they’re checked on every service.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A service that is overdue
  • Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
  • Drips or damp patches below an indoor unit

Offices and shops near Custom House station can have their systems serviced without closing.

What to look for in a quote

  • If the quote is based on a survey, pictures or a diagnosis
  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
  • Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
