What we do, step by step

The visit itself takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. The more we can see first, the quicker the visit to Andover.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- On the diagnosis visit, we test the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- We explain the cause in plain English and give you a fixed price.
- Once agreed, the repair goes ahead.
- We test the system in operation and leave you a note of the fault and the fix.
Getting ready for the visit

Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Andover
Think of it as a doctor’s appointment for your air conditioning: diagnose the cause, treat it properly and sign it off when it’s working. Guesswork costs money, and replacing a board when the fault is a sensor leaves the problem in place. If the problem is a unit that barely blows any air and a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room, we can help.
In a town like Andover, most repair calls are for home systems that have stopped cooling, are leaking water or show an error code. Plenty of them come down to dirty filters, a blocked drain or a leak.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. Our tips:
- Rule out the simple causes first: filter, mode and temperature
- Stop the unit if water is coming through a ceiling
- Don’t keep resetting a breaker that trips
The repair is written up: the cause, the parts fitted and any refrigerant added or recovered. Any refrigerant work is recorded in the F-Gas records and it belongs with the system’s paperwork.
Do not ignore early signs. Drips, noises, weak airflow and error codes are early warnings and catching it early keeps the repair simpler.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Andover
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Andover?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Andover. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
Do you cover Andover for air conditioning repair?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Andover is part of that. To start, call 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few pictures.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
When will I hear back?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Can you still repair R410A air conditioning?
Yes. Repairing and recharging existing R410A systems is still legal. As the GB phase-down continues, R410A is getting harder and dearer to buy, so for older systems we compare the cost of a repair with a replacement.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so check the terms or ask us. Either way, keep a record of every service.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. That isn’t optional: it’s required by law, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
Do you need air conditioning repair in Andover?
Error codes are the system telling you it has found a fault. Each manufacturer uses its own codes, and the same code can have more than one cause, so we read the code and then test to confirm. Common causes include sensors, wiring between the units and the circuit boards.
Customers normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling
- A unit that has lost refrigerant
- A noisy indoor or outdoor unit
If a system fails at a school such as St John the Baptist Catholic Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.
What your quote should include
- What’s in the price and what is not
- Which VAT rate the quote uses, and why

What owners can safely do
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are normally the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
From one of our customers
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
