What the managing agent must be able to show
A managing agent has to demonstrate that the building's equipment is maintained. For air conditioning, that means regular visits, refrigerant work entrusted to certified technicians, and leak checks carried out wherever the equipment's charge requires them.
Our method meets these requirements with precise documents. Each piece of shared equipment has a history: visit dates, readings taken, work carried out, check results. The co-owners' council and the general meeting thus have factual information, and the managing agent does not have to rebuild the record from memory.
Shared premises: lodge, common room, plant room
Depending on the building, several shared spaces may be air-conditioned: the caretaker's lodge or flat, a meeting or fitness room, a plant room, the council office. These units often run for long periods without supervision.
At each visit, our air-conditioning technician cleans and disinfects the units, checks condensate drainage and inspects the outdoor units, often installed on the roof or in a courtyard. They then record return and supply air temperatures, the difference between them and the current drawn, and look for possible leaks. These readings, recorded in a report given to the managing agent, make it possible to follow each unit year after year.
Co-owners with their own units: a group campaign
More and more residents install an air conditioner in their home. The managing agent can offer them a group servicing campaign:
- the managing agent shares the information and the chosen period;
- each co-owner or tenant books a slot on the booking page;
- the technician carries out the visits back to back, limiting comings and goings in the building;
- each resident pays for their own visit at the listed price and receives a personal report.
The price is the same as for our household customers: €130 incl. VAT for 1 indoor and 1 outdoor unit, +€40 incl. VAT per extra indoor unit and +€70 incl. VAT per extra outdoor unit. Well-maintained outdoor units also mean less noise and fewer troublesome drips for the neighbours.
A new unit on the façade: a technical opinion before the meeting
Requests to install an outdoor unit are frequent, and often sensitive: façade, balcony, roof, noise. So that the vote rests on facts, we write a technical opinion: proposed position, dimensions and weight, fixing method, noise level stated by the manufacturer, condensate drainage, access for servicing.
This document can be attached to the meeting notice. It helps the council set clear conditions and prevents improvised installations. Co-owners who obtain approval can then ask us to carry out the installation on a free quote, or use the installer of their choice.
A clear contract for the co-owners' council
The building's contract is drawn up on a free quote, after visiting the building. It lists the equipment covered, sets the visit frequency, and specifies the documents provided and the arrangements for access to common parts. No repair is undertaken without the managing agent's written approval.
Our active vigilance takes over from there: we keep each unit's history and get back in touch with the managing agent before the season and before each leak-check deadline. For a first visit to the building, contact us: reply within two working days.
