Common questions in Lashenden

Will you come out to Lashenden?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.

Can you do commercial air conditioning in Lashenden?

Yes, Lashenden is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.

What does F-Gas certified mean?

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 will gladly show you ours.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it and the fixed price is built on it.

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’ll tell you what to do first.

Can you look after our air conditioning after it’s installed?

Yes, maintenance contracts cover servicing, F-gas leak checks and records. We agree the schedule and cost up front.

Can I do any of the installation myself?

The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.

Installation is only the start. Maintenance contracts cover servicing, F-gas leak checks and the records that go with them with the cost agreed up front. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns. If the problem is TM44 recommendations that need acting on and commercial systems near the end of their life, we can help.

Keeping the system healthy

Simple habits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Leave space around outdoor units
  • Review older R410A systems before they need major repairs
  • Report noises, leaks and faults early

Make a note of when a TM44 inspection will be due if the system is over 12 kW. When it comes round, we can get the system ready and carry out the recommendations.

Plan replacements before old systems fail especially where top-up refrigerant is getting harder to buy.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

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 can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the property, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed-price quote.

Honest limits

We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:

  • Formal planning decisions, which rest with the council
  • Boiler installation or repair
  • Fire risk assessments

If in doubt, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What the work covers

  • Wall-mounted split systems
  • Ceiling cassettes
  • VRF systems
  • Server and comms room cooling
  • Multi-split systems
  • Ducted systems

How it works

Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first, so you can plan around it. In a business, work can often be done one area at a time. The work takes a few days for a small shop or office, longer for VRF across several floors. If a lane or gateway near Lashenden is tight for a van, let us know and we’ll plan for it.

  1. You tell us about the building and what’s needed.
  2. A site survey confirms the heat load, the layout and the access.
  3. We set out the options, the price and the programme.
  4. We install around your hours, phased where needed.
  5. The system is commissioned and maintenance can be arranged.

Before we arrive

  • Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

“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.”
