Get In TouchWhat we cover under maintenance
One team for annual services, breakdown call-outs, regas and F-Gas compliance — for both homes and commercial sites.
Annual service
Filter clean, coil inspection, drain flush, refrigerant pressure check and full performance test. Keeps manufacturer warranty valid.
PPM contracts
6-monthly or annual scheduled visits with fixed SLA response, priority call-out and discounted parts. Compliance records included.
Fault-finding & repair
Diagnostic call-out for units not cooling, leaking, tripping or throwing error codes. Most faults quoted on the first visit.
F-Gas leak trace & regas
Nitrogen pressure test, leak repair, system evacuation and recharge to manufacturer weight — the only legal way to restore lost refrigerant.
All makes — serviced & repaired
Book your service before the first cold snap
From October to March your system is asked to do the opposite job: pull warmth out of cold outdoor air and push it inside. That is a far harder demand on the equipment, and heat mode works hardest on the coldest morning you first need it. A summer-only check can pass a unit that then fails the first time it is asked to heat, which is why every service we carry out ends with a performance test in both heating and cooling modes. Book now, before the cold sets in, and a small fault gets caught in October instead of becoming a no-heat call-out in December. Our guide, Why book your air conditioning service before winter?, explains what we check and why, and our heating and cooling page covers the heating side in full.
- A full service covers filters and airflow, indoor and outdoor coils, refrigerant pressures and leak signs, the condensate drain, and electrical connections and controls, finished with a performance test in both heating and cooling modes.
- A clean, correctly charged unit holds much closer to its rated Coefficient of Performance of roughly 3.5 to 4.5, while a clogged, undercharged one tends to drift well below it, drawing more electricity for the same warmth.
- In heating mode frost builds on the outdoor coil and the system briefly reverses to melt it. A dirty coil, low refrigerant or a struggling fan means far more defrosting, wasted energy, and heating that feels as though it keeps cutting out.
- Manufacturer parts warranties, typically 3 to 6 years on residential installs, are almost always conditional on an annual service by a qualified engineer. We also back our own workmanship for two years.
- The busiest week of our winter is always the first proper cold snap. Book in autumn and an engineer comes out on your schedule rather than joining a queue. Contract customers get priority, and ad-hoc call-outs are typically within 24 to 48 hours.
A residential service visit is usually around £45 for a single unit, carried out by an F-Gas registered engineer. Call 0330 043 9244 to book yours before the season turns.
Servicing & Repair FAQs
Service intervals, breakdown response times, F-Gas compliance and what a full service covers.
How often should air conditioning be serviced?+
Residential systems: once a year to keep the manufacturer warranty valid. Commercial systems: every 6 months as standard, or 3-monthly for kitchens, server rooms and 24/7 environments where filters clog faster.
What does an AC service actually cover?+
A full service includes filter clean or replacement, evaporator and condenser coil inspection, condensate drain flush, refrigerant pressure and superheat check, electrical connection torque check, fan bearing inspection and a performance test on cooling and heating modes.
My AC isn't cooling — what's likely wrong?+
The four most common causes are: blocked filters restricting airflow (fixed on the visit), low refrigerant from a slow leak (regas + leak trace), a faulty capacitor or fan motor (parts on the van), or a blocked condensate drain triggering a safety shutdown. Our engineers carry diagnostic kit and usually quote on the first visit.
What does F-Gas compliance mean for my business?+
UK law requires refrigerant leak checks at set intervals based on the system's CO₂-equivalent charge — every 12, 6 or 3 months. We hold F-Gas Company Certification, all engineers are F-Gas Category 1, and we issue the statutory records for your compliance file after every visit.
Do you service all makes, or only ones you installed?+
All makes — Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Samsung, LG, Fujitsu, Toshiba, Panasonic, Haier, Hitachi and older R410A units. You don't need to have used us for the original install.
Do you offer planned maintenance contracts?+
Yes — annual or 6-monthly PPM contracts with fixed response SLAs, priority call-out over ad-hoc customers, discounted parts, and a documented maintenance log. Popular with landlords, care groups, MATs, dental practices and multi-site retailers.
What's your call-out response time for breakdowns?+
Contract customers get priority same-day or next-morning attendance. Ad-hoc call-outs are typically attended within 24–48 hours, faster in peak summer if we have a van in your area.
Can you regas a system that's lost refrigerant?+
Yes, but only after a leak trace — regassing without finding the leak is illegal under F-Gas and the gas will be gone within weeks. We nitrogen-pressure-test, locate the leak, repair the joint or component, evacuate the system and recharge to the manufacturer's specified weight.
Do you cover residential and commercial?+
Both. Same F-Gas certified engineers, same diagnostic kit, same-day response where possible — from a single home wall-split through to multi-tenant VRF plant.
