Looking after your system
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Choose a comfortable set temperature rather than the lowest
- Keep the F-Gas records, commissioning details and warranty information together
- Clean the filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
You get the paperwork that matters: the commissioning details, the F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information. File them together, because the manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.
Keep the outdoor unit clear. Anything piled against it, from leaves to garden furniture, reduces the airflow, which makes the whole system less efficient.
Homes in Lee Chapel and air conditioning
About 24 miles out from central London, Lee Chapel is part of the South East area we work across. About 66% of homes in and around Lee Chapel date from 1945 to 1972, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the last census (2021) found about 48% of households in terraced houses. Homes of that age typically have cavity or solid brick walls, and we check which before planning the pipe route. Terraces have little side access, so the outdoor unit normally goes on the rear wall or a flat roof, with the pipe run kept short.
If you commute from Basildon station and work from home on other days, one wall-mounted unit in the home office is often all that is needed. Older streets near St Martin of Tours may fall within a conservation area, so we check the planning position before choosing where the outdoor unit goes.

What affects the cost of air conditioning
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The size of the job
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.
What to send for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Questions from Lee Chapel
Can I get a fixed-price quote for air conditioning in Lee Chapel?
Use the quote form, or email, with a description of the job. Straightforward work can be priced remotely. Bigger jobs get a survey and a written fixed price.
Is Lee Chapel within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before you book and we will gladly show you ours.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so check the terms or ask us. Either way, keep a record of every service.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. The work itself takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer. In a place like Lee Chapel, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the rooms, outside space and fuse board.
- Next, a recommendation for each room and a fixed price.
- The treatment: units fitted, pipework and drain routed, and the electrics installed.
- Checks: a pressure test for leaks, then a vacuum to clear moisture.
- Finally, the clean bill of health: commissioning, the controls explained and your paperwork handed over.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know where we can park and unload

A customer’s words
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
