Had TM Hughes & Sons install a new boiler and couldnโ€™t be happier with the service. They were professional from start to finish, arrived on time, and got the job done efficiently with minimal disruption. The engineers were friendly, tidy, and clearly knew what they were doing. Everything was explained clearly, including how the new system works. Would definitely recommend them and wouldnโ€™t hesitate to use them again for future work.

I was having trouble finding a local duel fuel fitter to remove my old cooker and install a new gas one. After being let down twice by friends recommended fitters, I went online and found T M Hughes and thank goodness I did!
From the first enquiry I felt I was being listened to and that I was dealing with a very proffessional company. I was given a date and time for a fitter (Dylan) to attend who subsequently did a first class job. He was neat and tidy and put the old cooker outside for me ready for collection.
I cannot recomend this company enough. From start to finish I was kept informed along the way which is so important. Well done guys, your number is in my contact list as ill definitly call on you, if needed in the future. 🙂

Air Conditioning Installation

Installing an Air Conditioning system is easy when you choose TM Hughes & Son. Our team of engineers has installed many systems throughout Southend over the years.

Here are the general steps involved in the installation process

Choosing the Right System

The first step is to select the best Air Conditioning system based on your homeโ€™s size, layout, and cooling requirements. 

The first step is to book a free, no-obligation survey with one of our engineers. One of our engineers will determine the best system for your requirements during the survey and answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Following the survey, youโ€™ll receive a no-obligation quote with a detailed price breakdown for parts and labour.

Types Of Air Conditioning Systems

There are three primary types of air conditioning systems: split, multi-split, and central air conditioning.

Split Systems

Split systems comprise an indoor unit and an outdoor unit, connected by a refrigerant line. 

Split systems are energy-efficient, relatively easy to install, and suitable for cooling single rooms or small spaces. 

Depending on the specific model and available space, they can be mounted on walls, ceilings, or floors.

Multi-Split Systems

Multi-split systems are similar to split systems but have multiple indoor units connected to a single outdoor unit. 

This configuration enables individual temperature control in different rooms, providing greater flexibility and improved energy efficiency. 

Multi-split systems are ideal for homes or offices with multiple rooms that require individual temperature settings.

Central Air Conditioning Systems

Central air conditioning systems are more complex than Split and Multi-Split systems. 

They consist of a central unit and multiple ducts that distribute cooled air throughout the home or building. 

Central air conditioning systems are ideal for large homes or commercial spaces, offering consistent temperature control and the ability to cool multiple rooms simultaneously.

Air Conditioning Servicing

Air Conditioning systems require regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance and to prevent potential issues from becoming more significant problems. We service all types of Air Conditioning systems.

Common servicing tasks include

  1. Changing air filters: Air filters are changed to maintain proper airflow and improve indoor air quality.
  2. Checking thermostat settings: Your thermostat is checked and set correctly to maintain your preferred temperature, conserving energy.
  3. Inspecting ductwork: Over time, ductwork can become damaged or develop leaks, reducing the efficiency of your Air Conditioning system. The ductwork is checked to ensure everything is in order.
  4. Lubricating moving parts: The moving parts in your Air Conditioning system are lubricated to reduce friction and wear, which helps prevent wear and tear, breakdown, and extends the life of your system.
  5. Checking electrical connections: Loose or damaged connections can reduce the efficiency of your air conditioning system and pose a safety hazard. Connections are checked and tightened if necessary.
  6. Checking Refrigerant Levels: The refrigerant levels are checked and recharged if necessary.

Air Conditioning Repairs

Sometimes Air Conditioning systems develop issues or breakdowns. We offer same-day Repairs on Air Conditioning units. Our Repair Services include no call-out charges.

Common Air Conditioning Repairs

  1. Replacing compressors: The compressor is the heart of an air conditioning system, responsible for circulating refrigerant between the evaporator and condenser coils. If the compressor fails, the system will not cool your home effectively. An engineer will diagnose and replace a faulty compressor.
  2. Replacing condenser coils: If Condenser coils become damaged or excessively dirty, the systemโ€™s efficiency will suffer, leading to higher energy bills and reduced cooling capacity. An engineer will assess the condition of your condenser coils and replace them if necessary.
  3. Replacing evaporator coils: The evaporator coils absorb heat from the indoor air, cooling it down before being circulated back into your home. If the evaporator coils become damaged or dirty, they can hinder the systemโ€™s ability to cool your home. 
  4. Repairing refrigerant leaks: Identifying and fixing refrigerant leaks is essential for maintaining the efficiency and performance of your air conditioning system and preventing potential environmental damage. Our engineers detect leaks, repair the cause, and recharge the system with the correct amount of refrigerant.
  5. Electrical faults: Electrical problems, such as faulty wiring and loose connections, can cause your air conditioning system to underperform or even fail to function properly. 
  6. Sensor failure: Sensor malfunctions, such as a faulty thermostat sensor, can lead to temperature inconsistencies and reduced system efficiency.

When you experience issues with your air conditioning system, itโ€™s important to have a professional engineer diagnose the problem and make the necessary repairs. 

Attempting to fix the issue yourself can be dangerous and may result in further damage to the system, voiding warranties, or causing additional problems.

Our engineers possess the expertise, tools, and knowledge to accurately diagnose and repair your air conditioning system. 

They will quickly identify the root cause of the problem, recommend the most appropriate course of action, and ensure that the repairs are carried out correctly and safely.

We also carry out Boiler Servicing and Repairs and offer Underfloor Heating services.
