Air Conditioning Maintenance
Did you know that without regular servicing, a commercial air conditioning system can lose around 5% of its efficiency every year? Over time, this can increase running costs and shorten the lifespan of your equipment. With annual maintenance from Henlow Heating, you can keep your system operating at peak efficiency and extend its life by up to 35% — all from as little as £150 per year.
At Henlow Heating, we provide tailored maintenance services for businesses across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire. Our experienced engineers are fully trained to service a wide range of systems, from ducted air conditioning units to advanced water-cooled setups.
How Often Should Commercial Air Conditioning Be Maintained?
Most commercial systems need at least one professional service per year to ensure reliability, efficiency, and compliance with manufacturer warranties. Regular maintenance not only keeps your building comfortable but also prevents costly breakdowns and keeps your energy bills in check.
Benefits of Annual Commercial Air Conditioning Maintenance:
Lower energy bills and running costs
Fewer unexpected breakdowns and expensive repairs
Longer system lifespan (up to 15 years or more)
Compliance with warranties and government regulations
Keep Running Costs Under Control
Even small issues, like clogged filters or dust build-up, can place unnecessary strain on your system. This makes the unit work harder, consuming more electricity and increasing your bills. Preventative maintenance ensures these problems are spotted and fixed early, saving you money in the long run.
Avoid Expensive Repairs
Minor issues left unchecked can quickly escalate into major component failures. Annual servicing includes checks such as clearing dust, lubricating moving parts, and monitoring refrigerant levels. These steps can reduce the risk of serious failures by up to 80%, helping you avoid unexpected downtime and repair bills.
Extend the Life of Your System
Air conditioning can last 15 years or more — but only with proper care.
Without servicing, the lifespan of your system could be cut short by a third or more. Regular maintenance helps protect your investment, ensuring maximum return over the long term.
Protect Your Warranty & Stay Compliant
Most manufacturers require proof of annual professional maintenance to keep warranties valid. In addition, UK regulations state that commercial systems over 12kW must be inspected at least once every five years. Henlow Heating ensures you remain compliant and fully protected.
Signs Your Commercial AC Needs Servicing
Sometimes your system will need attention outside of routine visits. Look out for:
Unpleasant odours – may indicate mould, debris, or moisture build-up.
Reduced cooling efficiency – could signal refrigerant leaks or mechanical faults.
Unusual noises – often point to worn or damaged components.
Dirty filters – reduce airflow, increase energy usage, and impact air quality.
Ignoring these signs can lead to:
Higher running costs
Increased risk of breakdowns
Shorter system lifespan
Potentially voided warranties
