How we handle air conditioning repair in Aldwych
A symptom is only a clue: warm air, drips and error codes can each have several causes. A unit blowing warm air might have a blocked filter, a failed sensor, a fault on the circuit board or a refrigerant leak, so we diagnose before we repair. Typical jobs include a unit that has lost refrigerant and a unit that won’t start, on heat pumps, VRF systems and ducted systems.
Many buildings in Aldwych have a managing agent or security desk, so tell us who controls access. Outdoor units on roofs may need a key, a permit or an escort, and we plan for that before we arrive.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Air conditioning repair around Aldwych
Central Aldwych is inside the Strand Conservation Area. In the mile around Aldwych’s centre, 35 conservation areas have been designated. About 726 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Aldwych, Royal Opera House (grade I) among them. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that. About 48% of homes in Aldwych and the neighbourhoods around it were built before 1919, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the 2021 Census found about 96% of households live in flats. Outdoor units serving flats can be awkward to reach, so let us know where yours is. In London, access to outdoor units on roofs and balconies can need planning, so tell us how to reach yours.

Common problems we fix in Aldwych
A unit that runs but does not cool has a few usual suspects: dirty filters, wrong settings, a blocked outdoor unit, a sensor or board fault, or a refrigerant leak. Diagnosis narrows it down.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A system that won’t switch on
- A flashing light and a system that will not run
- Drips from the indoor unit
If a system fails at a school such as St Clement Danes CofE Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.

Aldwych questions
Can you do air conditioning repair in Aldwych?
Yes. Aldwych is one of the places we cover. To start, call 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few photos.
Do you cover Aldwych for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Aldwych. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before booking, and we are happy to show ours.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. You get a written record of each visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
What warranty do I get?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
Is it legal to repair an R410A system?
Yes. We find and fix the leak, then recharge with R410A and record it in the F-Gas records, and we tell you honestly whether a repair is worth it on an older system.
Why is there ice on my air conditioning pipes?
The coil gets too cold when air can’t move across it or when the refrigerant charge is low. Check the filter first and if that isn’t it, we will find the cause.

Let and managed properties
For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so each one has its own history.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the property, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed-price quote.
What we do, step by step
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. For a job in Aldwych, tell us about parking, permits and access to the building when you get in touch.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Next, a plain explanation and a fixed price.
- Where a repair does not make sense, you will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- Treat: carry out the repair, sealing any leak before refrigerant goes back in.
- Finally, a check that it’s working and a record of what we did.
How to prepare
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
Getting a price
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.
