A slow leak can go unnoticed for a long time. The system just cools or heats a little less well each year, until it can’t keep up on the hottest or coldest days.

Customers typically contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Drips or damp patches below an indoor unit
  • Ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit
  • Error codes or flashing lights on the indoor unit

Site managers at schools like Wimbish Primary School can have the site’s units serviced during a holiday.

About our air conditioning servicing in Wimbish

A service is not the same as a regas. The refrigerant circuit is sealed, so a system that’s short of gas has a leak somewhere. If the performance checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it rather than just topping up. We are often asked to deal with noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit and ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit, across ducted systems, air-to-air heat pumps and multi-split systems.

Most systems around Wimbish need servicing once a year, ideally in spring before the warm weather.

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.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us

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.

Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and ring 07833 053749 or send an email.
