To effectively maintain your air conditioning system, you should have it checked, serviced and cleaned at least once a year. This will keep the components of the system functioning properly and could help you avoid costly breakdowns and repairs in the long run.

It is now a legal obligation for air conditioning systems with a capacity greater than 12KW to be inspected every five years in accordance with the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive. Owners of the system (or those who control it) are responsible for arranging these inspections to ensure the system is operating efficiently and correctly and that it is suitable for its intended use. We can advise on when the inspection should occur and can arrange to carry out the inspection.

Our planned maintenance contracts will satisfy the requirements and obligations of the major air conditioning and refrigeration manufacturer warranties. It is important to bear in mind that manufacturer warranties are only valid if the equipment has been used and maintained in accordance with their specifications and recommendations, similar to which car manufacturers require that the vehicle be serviced and maintained throughout the life of the warranty.

Domestic units that are just used for cooling only need a service once a year. Office units and other commercial air conditioning should be serviced at least twice a year. For server rooms, it’s recommended that they’re serviced three times a year. Units that operate in high pollution areas such as kitchens, restaurants, hairdressers or workshops will need additional services throughout the year.

The system is made up of filters, coils and fins and requires regular maintenance to ensure effective and efficient operation. Without regular servicing, the system will be less durable and energy-efficient, costing you more money in the long run.

Yes, cleaning a system’s cooling coils a few times a year can prevent the build-up of dirt, dust and grime that can make the coils work harder, using more electricity. Coils should also be kept clear of obstructions that can restrict the airflow around them. Condensers and evaporators should be cleaned and serviced regularly to keep them running efficiently. We can provide scheduled maintenance contracts tailored to your specific equipment and business needs.
