Air conditioning regas London services restore the correct refrigerant charge after leak testing and repair. Our F-Gas certified engineers cover every London borough, offer same-week appointments and refill suitable systems from £120+VAT.
What our air con refill service covers
An air con refill restores the refrigerant charge specified by the equipment manufacturer. It is not routine maintenance: a correctly installed air conditioning circuit is sealed and should not consume refrigerant. If the charge is low, our first job is to establish why. We check the system condition, operating pressures and temperatures, inspect accessible pipework and joints, and test for leakage before recommending a refill.
We work on domestic and commercial split, multi-split, ducted and VRF/VRV air conditioning. Common AC refrigerants include R32, R410A and R407C. The correct product cannot be chosen by guesswork or mixed with another gas: our engineer identifies the equipment, checks its data plate and charges the measured quantity required. Where we encounter older equipment or an unavailable refrigerant, we explain the compliant repair or replacement options rather than offering an unsuitable top-up.
We can also assess refrigeration equipment using R404A, R448A or R449A, although commercial refrigeration faults may require a dedicated diagnosis. All refrigerant handling is completed by F-Gas certified engineers in accordance with the F-Gas Regulations 2014, including safe recovery and appropriate service records.
Signs you may need an air con regas
Reduced cooling is the most obvious warning, but it does not prove that refrigerant is low. Dirty filters, obstructed coils, failed fans, sensors and electrical faults can produce similar symptoms. A proper diagnosis avoids paying for gas that the system does not need.
Air from the indoor unit is no longer cold
The system runs for longer without reaching temperature
Ice forms on pipework, coils or the outdoor unit
Cooling performance drops while electricity use rises
A low-pressure or refrigerant-related fault code appears
Oil staining is visible around a flare joint or valve
Our testing, repair and refill process
1. System assessment. We confirm the model, refrigerant and reported symptoms, then test cooling performance, temperatures and pressures.
2. Leak investigation. Accessible joints, valves, coils and pipework are checked. Depending on the fault, testing may use an electronic detector, leak-detection fluid or oxygen-free nitrogen.
3. Repair and pressure test. We explain the defect and price before repair. Once repaired, the circuit is pressure-tested and evacuated to remove air and moisture.
4. Accurate recharge. Refrigerant is added by weight to the manufacturer’s specification. We then run the equipment and verify temperatures, pressures and stable operation.
5. Clear handover. You receive an explanation of the work completed, relevant refrigerant details and practical advice on servicing or monitoring.
London coverage and appointments
Our engineers cover Central, North, South, East and West London, all 32 boroughs, the City of London and addresses around the M25. We attend flats, houses, offices, shops, restaurants, hotels, clinics and other commercial premises. Same-week appointments are available in many areas, subject to access, engineer capacity and the refrigerant required. Tell us the equipment make, model and fault code when booking if these are available; this helps us prepare for the visit.
Air con regas cost London: from £120+VAT
Air con refill and regas starts from £120 plus VAT. The final cost depends on the refrigerant, charge quantity, system size, access and whether leak testing or repair is needed. Refrigerant is not added until the cause of the loss has been assessed. We explain any additional work and provide a clear price for approval before proceeding, so there is no surprise charge at handover.
Air con refill and regas FAQs
How much does an air con regas cost in London?
Our air con refill and regas service starts from £120 plus VAT. The final price depends on the refrigerant type, charge weight, access and whether leak detection or repair is required. We confirm the price before work begins.
How do I know whether my air conditioning needs a regas?
Common signs include weak cooling, warm air, ice on the indoor or outdoor unit, unusually long running times, higher electricity use and a fault code linked to low pressure. These symptoms can have other causes, so we test the system before adding refrigerant.
Can you refill R32, R410A and R407C air conditioning systems?
Yes. Our F-Gas certified engineers work with R32, R410A and R407C air conditioning systems. We identify the refrigerant, recover it safely where necessary and charge the manufacturer-specified quantity by weight.
Do you repair the leak before refilling the system?
Yes. Air conditioning is a sealed circuit, so low refrigerant usually indicates a leak. We inspect and test the circuit, explain the repair needed and do not use a refill as a substitute for fixing a known leak.
Which parts of London do you cover?
We cover all London boroughs, the City of London and properties around the M25. Same-week appointments are available subject to engineer capacity, with booking options for homes and commercial premises.
