Air conditioning repair across Slough: what to expect

Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Systems fitted by other installers are fine too, so tell us the make and model if you know it. We’re often asked to deal with water dripping from the indoor unit and a system that won’t switch on, across heat pumps, multi-split systems and ceiling cassettes.

The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, and that takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find.

  1. It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
  2. At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
  3. Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
  4. We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
  5. Finally the system is tested in operation and you get a note of the fault and the fix.

What you’ll pay

Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.

What happens if it’s left?

Running with a fault wastes electricity. Poor airflow or low refrigerant means more running time for less effect, and the extra strain can shorten the life of the compressor.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day
  • Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
  • Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
  • Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved

System by system

Multi-split systems

With several pipe runs, finding a leak on a multi-split takes method. We test each run to find it, then repair, pressure test and recharge.

Fans and compressors

Fans are the moving parts most likely to wear, and the first sign is often noise or weak airflow. Indoor and outdoor fan motors can usually be replaced where the parts are available.

What affects the cost of air conditioning repair

You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It’s based on:

  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • The number of rooms, units or zones
  • How easy the units are to reach
  • Whether the existing supply is suitable

The cost depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, how easy the units are to reach and what the work involves. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Helping us quote

Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Send what you can of the following:

  • Your consumer unit or fuse board
  • A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
  • A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
  • The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go

Need a price for air conditioning repair? Please give us a ring on 07833 053749 with a few details about the property. We will explain what we’d recommend and why, then send a fixed-price quote before anything is booked.

Keeping the system healthy

How well a system lasts depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Never add refrigerant yourself or let anyone top up without finding the leak
  • Rule out the simple causes first: filter, mode and temperature
  • Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter
  • Have the system serviced once a year

Where a repair isn’t worth doing, we say so, and explain why. We can quote for a replacement system on the same visit where that’s the better answer.

Give the outdoor unit space. Anything blocking the outdoor unit makes the whole system strain and debris drawn into the fan can cause noise and damage.
