Leak detection and regassing in Rochester

Hot spells reach the South East early, which makes spring the easiest time to arrange an installation. If a system in Rochester has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed.

Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Rochester. We cover Rochester as part of Kent, roughly 8 miles from Maidstone. Homes in ME1 are all within our coverage.

FAQ

Common questions in Rochester

How quickly can you visit in Rochester?

We offer the next available date when you get in touch. Spring and early summer are the busiest times, so booking ahead helps.

Who carries out the work in Rochester?

Engineers working for Aircon Installers; anything touching the refrigerant circuit is done by F-gas certified engineers. Your contract is with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which trades as Aircon Installers.

Do you work on systems someone else installed?

Yes, we work on most makes and models found in homes. Send us the model number if you have it and we will confirm before booking.

Can you just top up my air conditioning?

Not without finding and repairing the leak. Topping up a leaking system wastes money and releases greenhouse gases.
