Our air conditioning service in MK20

Think of it as diagnose, treat and sign off: survey first, install second, commission and hand over last. The sign-off includes testing every mode, showing you the controls and handing over the F-Gas records. The work covers ducted systems, VRF systems and air-to-air heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are uncertainty over the right type and size of system and rooms under the roof that stay hot into the night.

The work area is kept tidy throughout, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes a day for most single-room installations, with multi-split, ducted and cassette systems taking longer.

  1. You send pictures, or we visit and survey the rooms and outside.
  2. Each room is sized and the unit positions agreed, then you get a fixed-price quote.
  3. On the day, dust sheets go down and the indoor and outdoor units are fitted.
  4. Pipework, cable and drain are run, the circuit is connected and the pipework is pressure tested and evacuated.
  5. It’s switched on, checked and handed over with its records.

Pricing in MK20

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re unsure, phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed price.

What you get with us

  • A 24/7 emergency line
  • F-Gas company certification
  • MCS certification for heat pump work
  • NICEIC approved for electrical work

Caldecote: If your home is in one of the older streets near Church of St Mary Magdalene, it’s worth checking whether it’s listed or in a conservation area before an install. Linford Manor, about 1.6 miles west, is one of the historic houses nearby, and if your own home is listed, consent comes before any air conditioning is fixed to it.

What affects the quote in MK20

The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
  • Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
  • Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
  • The number of rooms, units or zones

Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.

What to send for a quote

You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:

  • Your installation or service records
  • The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
  • The make and model of the system, from the label
  • A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on

Here’s what helps us quote: where the property is and what kind of building it is, a few pictures, the brand and model of anything already fitted and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Then phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line.

What owners can safely do

Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone 07833 053749.

On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are normally the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.

Why act early?

Fans and portables move warm air around rather than removing it. A fixed system removes the heat to the outside, runs more quietly in the room and can normally heat as well, so it works for you in winter as well.

Comparing quotes

  • How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
  • Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
  • Whether the price is fixed or an estimate
  • The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted

Keeping the system healthy

Looking after it is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Clean the filters every few weeks when the system is in heavy use
  • Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter
  • Report drips, noises or error codes right away
  • Keep the F-Gas records, commissioning details and warranty information together

An annual service keeps the system running efficiently, and some manufacturers make regular servicing a condition of their warranty. We can remind you when it’s due, so it doesn’t get forgotten.

Keep the outdoor unit clear. Anything piled against it, from leaves to garden furniture, reduces the airflow, and the system has to work harder as a result.

MK20 questions

What size air conditioning unit do I need?

It depends on the room, not only its floor area. Glazing, orientation, the roof and what goes on in the room all affect it and the survey covers each of them.

When will I hear back?

You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.

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.

Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?

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

Do you work on all makes?

We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.

Can the outdoor unit go on a roof or at ground level?

The position is agreed on the survey, not on the day. It must have clear airflow and space for servicing, and walls or roofs facing a road can raise planning questions. We will tell you what to check before we fit it.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
