Spring weather, service visits and TM44 energy assessments

What a lovely sunny warm week the forecasters are predicting for central London. The west end, city, SE1, W1, SW1, WC1 and WC2 postcodes are often much warmer due to the amount and types of buildings in the areas. As most of you know, it is also a very busy place always full of people, cars, buses and other public transport, this sort of thing always makes it feel slightly warmer.

As the sun is quite low at this time of year, it can really warm up buildings through glass windows using a magnifying effect.

Room air conditioners or portable air conditioners are ideal to provide comfort cooling. London Cool and Midland Cool can provide these either to hire or buy. We still have some budget ex-rental portable air conditioners available to purchase. For further advice please call 0800 440 444.

Your installed air conditioning units can also cause a problem when the sun is shining. You may switch on the cooling button for the first time since the warm spell in October last year and realise it is not working efficiently enough for you - we have had many call outs for these in the recent weeks!

Not many people are aware but fixed air conditioning systems require regular maintenance or service visits and this is quite important. Your pump could be blocked, your filters dirty, or even coils clogged and to have to buy replacement parts sooner than expected can come at a big expense. All of these issues effect the efficient operation of your installed air conditioning systems. This is why we encourage customers with newly installed equipment to take out a maintenance contract - this also complies with manufacturers warranty as if this is not something that is taken out within 3 months of an installation and something goes wrong with your equipment, the warranty invalidates - not many people realise this.

So if you have a wall mounted system, ceiling cassette, ceiling suspended or ducted cooling system, call 0800 440 444 for free advice or to arrange a service visit if you do not have a contract already in place - if it is something you feel may not be affordable then don't panic, we have many payment options available.

London Cool operate from our head office in between Crawley, West Sussex and Gatwick Airport. Having a  warehouse in Clapham, SW9 allows us to provide a prompt service into central London 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Need a TM44 energy assessment? London Cool can provide air conditioning energy assessments for your multi splits, VRV, VRF and chiller air handling systems.

    Hola London Cool from Toucans Pub in Fuengirola Malaga, its been warm here for weeks and only going to get hotter. Thanks again to London Cool in Spain for installing our wall mount air conditioner unit. It keeps Toucans Bar customers and staff cool during the day with a energy efficient heat through the winters evenings on the Costa Del Sol. If any one from Midland Cool or London Cool are in Fuengirola pop in for a free pint! We are gearing up for selling half price Guinness this coming St Patricks Day, best Guinness in Fuengirola perhaps? All the best, Bruce and Sue Sinfield.

My air conditioning is not working. What should I do?

As the outside temperatures rise and the sun is beating through the windows, it is tempting to turn your portable air conditioning down to as low as 16 degrees, thinking that the colder the air conditioner is set, the faster it will cool the room.  In fact, this is not how the cooling units work.  Whatever the temperature is set at, an air conditioner will pump out the same amount of cool air, and setting it at a lower temperature only tells it when to stop pumping out the cool air, rather than speeding up the cooling effect. The air conditioning units should ideally be set at around 24/25 degrees, to ensure that the units are not working so hard that they stop working altogether.  The models most affected by the hot temperatures are the Climatemaster, KY32, Trotec 2600, PKY12 or Compact 12, whereas units such as the Weltems, can cope with the exceptional temperatures. If your portable air conditioner does stop working or is not cooling the room, ...

The advantages of a maintenance agreement for your air conditioning

Regular air conditioner servicing has many benefits Increased efficiency of operation Reduced chance of a costly, major breakdown at the worst time Longer lifespan of the unit Increased comfort Lower operating costs Improved air quality Priority call-out Adherence to manufacturer’s extended parts warranty Energy Efficiency Regular air conditioner servicing can improve your air conditioner's efficiency. A clogged air filter in your air conditioning system can affect its efficiency as it will obstruct the air flow and increase the energy consumption.   A clean air filter in your room air conditioner, whether it is a ceiling recessed cassette system, or a ceiling suspended system, saves 15 percent energy compared with a dirty one.   Dirty condenser coils will make the air compressor run harder which increases the energy consumption and your electricity bill.   Lower Repair Costs If regular maintenance is not carried out, your air conditioner co...

R32 Refrigerant gas for installed air conditioning systems for further information on R32 air conditioning systems please call 0800 440 444

London Cool have drafted up a long read below regarding the introduction of one of the latest refrigerant gas for installed wall mount, ceiling mount cassette and floor type air conditioning systems.  Manufacturers include Mitsubishi Daikin Fujitsu Daikin and Panasonic Hope you enjoy the read and we will publish soon about new gasses used in portable air conditioning systems also. https://www.londoncool.com/ In 1999 the Kyoto Protocol on global warming listed HFC refrigerants that were contributing to the global warming. This, in turn, led to the introduction of F-Gas regulations in Europe and at the start of January 2015 the next stage of F-gas laws was introduced which detailed the phase down of HFC refrigerant. It is important to note though that this is a phase down and NOT a phase out – with regulations now based on the tonnes of CO2 equivalent of all refrigerants sold or traded in Europe. The air conditioning market moved over to R410a refrigerant in 2006 as it offer...
